The• matter of special levies on various townships to equalize.. the ex- penditure; in the "various towxxships wasthe subject of atgood deal .of discussion in -committee. Reeve Gei- ger of Hensal1 stood by the by-law. which'' levied these turecial assess- nien'ts .and � demanded d that the o-. faulting t'pwnships pay' their debts: Warden Robertson pointed out 'that. the twelve miles of road from Gode= rich to Auburn' was not there solely for the benefit' of Colbourn town ship„and it was not fair to assess that expenditure to that township, while •Goderic h township was( for- tunate enough to have some Provin- cial Highway running ,through it, which reduced the amount it had to spend on 'roads.' A •motion was made by, Messrs. McEwen; and J. F. Johnston to reim- burse those municipalities which had paid their special"le-vies to the extent of . half the amount paid. In tamendment it was moved by Messrs. McQuaid and Rlopp` that no special levies be collected and no reimburse- ments be made, and this was car- ried. The' good roads system is now put on the, basis of a county system irrespectiveof: the mileage in any particular townships, which is, of course,, the system which was -•con- templated by the Province in the Good Roads plaza; and, as was point- ed out, Huron is the ° only: county. which his been trying to -carry sY g t Y out any other plant. • An evening session was held:. on Thursay night. After the reading of the minutes, the Warden was on motion, asked • to. vacate, the chair *and Mr. Beattie was appointed' chair man. Mr. A, II. Neeb then read an, address to the •.Warden and Mr. Geiger presented` him with a beauti- ful gold -headed cane. , AUCTION SALE. of HO'USEHOLD. .b`URNITURE The undersigned has received in- structions to sell by public auction, at HALF MILE EAST OF CREDITON — on SATURDAY, DECEMBER 19, 1925 'at 2 o'clock p.m, the following: ISitchen stove 2' coal heaters, 5 bed springs and uattresses,1 table, 2 couches, cupboard, bureau, stands organ, toilet sets, all kinds of bed- ding, all kinds' of dishes and tinware mats, curtains, 3 rockers, kitchen and dining room chairs, sewing in chine, pictures, trunks, sealers.
