sarvia insteadof water ow 'scene of the
streets, the amount to be charged the
town for this service is reduced from $9114
to 8450 per year., Mr. Wm. Gluier, of
the powerhouse staff, asked for an increase
1 of salary and will be paid 82.50 per 12 -
hour day. The Provincial Hydro Com -
I mission wrote again with regard to the
amounts owing the Commission from
the local commitaioi, totalling over 810-
1 400, and the secretary was instructed to
reply stating that preparations are being
made for an issue of debentures for 110-
000 to enable the local commist;ion to pay
off these amounts. A communication
from Mr. Chas. Garrow, town solicitor,
informed the commission that in the
matter of the water rates against the
former Doty house on Brock street the
commission had followed the proper course
in turning off the water until arrears
should be paid. Mr. Cooke, in behalf of
Proudfoot, Killoran & Cooke, acting for the
present owner of the property, offered
t 815 in settlement of the arrears, which
I were about tttwce that amount, in order
that the water should be turned onagain.
The commission decided to accept the
offer.
The same legal firm, acting in behalf
of Mr. O. E. Fleming, demanded that
'200 feet of 4 -in. pipe removed from Ridge-
wood Park be returned, or a writ would
be issued. The engineer reported that
the pipe was removed without any
damage to fences or other property. and
that it belonged to the town, having
been placed in Ridgewood Park to supply
water to the military camp. The matter
was referred to the town solicitor.

to the halror of The Signal,
Dear Sir: -1 shall be obliged to you if
you will kindly bring to the attention of
your readers the fact that enquiries con-
cerning members of the Canadian Exped-
itionary Force should not be sent to
England. All available information is
dispatched 'from London, England, by
cable and mailed to the Record Office,
Ottawa.. Consequently, the Record o(-
fice in most instances is able to impart
the same information from- two weeks to
a month earlier than could be done by
the authorities overseas.
All enquiries, therefore, concerning
Members of the Canadian Expeditionary
Force should be sent directly to district
headquarters and will be transmitted to
Ottawa immediately for attention.
