TAKE A TIP
Making a fruit cake:
1. Don't tackle the job all in one
clay. Clean and snip the fruits, shred
the peel and store in covered jars, and
blanch the nuts, tre day before baking.
2. Be sure to use fresh eggs, butter
and nuts.
3, Cream fat until soft and work in
the sugar well. Add eggs one at a time
and beat well after each addition.

combine with dried fruits, peel and
ruts. Add to first mixture and stir
thoroughly.
5? Turn into tins lined with 2 thick-
nesses of heavy greased paper, filling
tins two-thirds full, and bake in a pre-
heated oven of 275 degrees.
6. If oven has no oven control, set a
Inn of hot water in the bottom to pre-
vent cake from burning, in case the
oven becomes hotter than it should
be.

hours. -Test with a splint.

Mr. Galbraith's Reply "
Your Worship and Members of the
Council:
You have taken me completely by
surprise to-night and I certainly aps
preciate the kind remarks of Coun.
Lloyd and your fine gift.
The twentaafive years have passed
quickly. When I was .appointed to this
position, I had , great doubt as to
whether I could fill the position, How-
ever, I was willing to work hard at it
and to do my very,, best. Finances of
the town very not so good at that time.
The Hydro Department was controlled
by a Committee of the Council and the-
power was developed by steam. Prices
on coal had been high and the rates
had not been increased to keep pace
with costs. It was deemed advisable
to raise the rate to 13c per KWH and
this had to be done during my first
year of office. Naturally there was a
good deal of grumbling but the Coun-
cil held on at later when Hydro was
turned on. a large overdraft at the
hank'had been fully paid up and Hydro
started off without any overdraft.
Considerable local improvement work
had b,een done such as laying water-
mains, sewers, etc, and no debentures
had been issued with the result that
large loans were 'held -bythe Banks.
In the course of the first year or so,
debentures were issued and sold and all
these loans were paid off. The pave-
flints of the Town were laid within the
next few years and all the debentures
are now paid off for them.
'The work in the office during the
past eight to ten years has increased
greatly. I have been able to give
grater service to the public and I am
always ready to assist where possible.
The work of the ration board has been
heavy at times but I -feel that' this is a
distinCe asset to the town as we draw
people from a large area and they come
to town to see about rations and at the
same time do their business here.
The depresSion years caused a great
deal of extra work due to the handling
of relief and while this was a very dif-
ficult duty to carry out; I feel that on
the whole very- little complaint was
made. I had the advantage of ex-
cellent advice from the late Richard
Vanstone, the late- J. A. Morton and
the late Dudley Holmes during the
early years of my work and this helped
me greatly.
In starting off the next twenty-five
years, I hope to continue to give good
service to future councils and the citi-
zens of the town and community,
Thank you again, gentlemen.

ett for the prompt repair of the bridge
on Highway 86 leading out of Town,"
Nis Worship reported for the Exec-
titive Committee that the amount re-
Mlted by Turnberry Twp, was about
08,52 short of what had actually been
paid but this was accounted for the
cost of tile for drainage. Since last
meeting he had consulted Mr. Allen
who was quite agreeable to resign.
After discussion it;. was agreed that Mt.
T. W. Platt commence his duties on
„January 1st, 1946, and that Mr. Allen
continue on for a week or so. Disout-
Sibil as to the vacaney in the position
of the Medical Officer of Health was
discussed, but no action was taken.

tion of his 25 years in this office,
The Finance Committee reported a
number of accounts properly certified
and those were ordered, paid on motion
of Couti. Lloyd and Coun. Johnson.
'Coun._ Johnson reparted, for the
Street Committee that the new snow
plow was now 'at work And arrange-
ments would be made to sand one side
of the John St. hill. Coun. Johnson
explained that M'r, Maurer would con-
sider boilding a snow loader for the
front of his truck and he could then
keep the snow clear on the sides of
Main Street, Council felt that this
would be more economical than'using
drays for molting snow.
Moved by Coun. Johnson and Coun,
Kennedy ""That we give Mr. Maurer
authority to go ahead and make up a
snow loader to keep the main street
clear of snow". Carried.
Coun. Wilkinson invited the Council
to lunch at the close of the meeting.
He always enjoyed the work of the
Council and the co-operation of every-
one.
Coun, Spry stated that' he enjoyed
the associations with the present coun-
cil and wished every success for the
Town. He suggested that future Coun-
cils use great care in encouraging new
industries to come to town. He felt
that 'careful investigation should he
made.
His Worship expressed regret at los-
ing the services of Couns. Spry and
Wilkinson„ Both had been efficient
members of this Council.
Coun. Kennedy reported for the Fite
Committee that Mr. Jos. Clark had
been appointed to the Fire Brigade in
