Mayor W. T. Miller was sur-
prised that though there were

A by-law was passed to ex-
empt the Canadian Legion pro-
Perty in town from all taxes
but school' tax, and any local
improvement tax that might in
future :apply, for a poriod of
five years.
police Report
Mayor Miller read the police
rePOrt made up by Chief H.
Thompson, which told of four
presecutions, four arrests, eight
summonses delivered, 28 „imps-,
tigations carried . out, -$150 in
fines levied, six warnings under
the Highway Traffic Act, three
places found insecure at night,
four moltor vehicle accidents,

tions; ender the Highway Tref-
Acrt and Public and. com-
mercial Vehicles Act, two eqn-
victions under the Liquor Con-
trol Ace, one impaired, one auto
theft (later recovered), two.
cases of robbery, one bicycle
theft (later reroveeed).
There are 48 'trailers ,at the
Becker TrallerCamp, all in use.
'Mayor Miller commented on
the increased traffic in town.
Public Works
Reeve lVf, J. Agnew expressed
conviction that the $1,187 spent
on calcium this summer was a
waste of money, and that they
should put ;more faith, in oiling
roads. "I believe it's cheaper
and lasts longer."
Considerable .discussion rest-
ed upon the problem of Kirk
Street, where a recently made
road is 'sinking away. Total
cost of .guttering, digging out
law spot and correcting, will be
$1;347 and this has not been
budgeted for. A supplementary
road by-law would be needed
to cover the cost and get sub-
sidy on the expense.
• Reeve Agnew asked several
councillors to accompany him
to Exeter on' Tuesday where a
new type of surface was being
applied tta roads; which would
cdst : $4,000 per mile, rather
than the $11,000 which Clinton
is now paying. This surface is
approved by the Department of
Highways.
Building Permits
Only $1,700 in building per-
mits were passed: including al-
teration's by Peter Darnsrna of

tees to watch their spending for
the balance of the year.

Mayor William J. Miller ask-
ed that a reque.st be made Ito
the Department of Highways
to change the population figure
on the signs art the entrances
to Clinton. They have been
"3,000" Ifor some years, and
Mayor Miller commented, "It
would look better at 3,491."
Planting Trees
Coencillor Donald Symons
asked for some •action With re-
gard to plantipg trees, 'to re-
place those taken down. Dr.
D. J. Lane (present in the cap-
acity of newspaper• reporter)
told of some years ago when
the horticultural society of
which he is president, had
ordered. trees for planting in
Clinton, and had trouble Plac-
ing them 411. He said there
are trees in town which should
come down for they are matur-
ed, and axe dangerous.

there would riot be one tree
alive on Vinegar Hill hi ten
