The Village Finances The Auditors* Report of the ances of the village -of Hensall the ,yeal’ 193'6 made by Firsbbirook, Monteith & Co., of Stratford, has been printed and some of them dis­ tributed, We have nbt had time yet to study it thoroughly, The audit­ ors find the bookg in good condition, ably kept, all accounts In order And bank balances correct. Some rec­ ommendations are made and a book were were Store and fin- for AT so more added, and credit is given to the officials. It was thought best to engage outside auditors this year as there iwas some criticism last year of village affairs. We hope that the ratepayers will now be sat­ isfied that the business iof the mun­ icipality is being looked after, The expenditures ixx the audit are given 1 in bulk form, and as the treasurer’s financial statement gives the ex­ penditures from the 15th of Novem- bei* to the 15th of November. The treasurers iof the Hydro Commission ' the School Board and the Public Library board issue no annual State­ ment, and as the present audit gives the expenditures in bulk form, the average ratepayer does not get much information from the audit and of which he is entitled to. Personally we would of liked to have more in­ formation.
