That is remarkable enough but what is perhaps more remarkable is that no body owes Goderieh township a cent of taxes. That is a state to which many municipalities aspire but which few., have attained. This desirable state of -affairs inay:'be due in • no small pant to the work of the col-, oz' llee t Me; It=,.14G. 'Thompson, who has held that positign for the -past twelve' years and who seems to go on the assumptiontthat his work is not'com- ,pleted until the last cent of taxes is paid over to the township treasurer. Mr. Thompson would be a public ben- efactor if he were to give a few'des- hi soiless ,•to collectors in other ntunicittal:.
