OUR TOWN COVERNMVM•ENT
fair as eirctunstlnces permit, are the
sante es those in the: klouse of Coni-
tnens and Legislative Assembly.
Any legislation by the Town Coun-
cil hes the name of "by-law", in
order to have force it meet be stamp-
ed with the town seal after three
fortual readings and be signed by
the Mayor and Clerk, The subjects
regerdhig which our town 'Council
1i°ts power to legislate are carefully
explainedin the 'Municipal 'Act, mud
forte a vary long list. In general,
everything that concerns the town,
and it is Iiot otherwise provided for
by the Provincial Statutes Is tinder
control of the Town. Council.
Meeting '.the Expenses
In order to meet the expenses of
town government, the Council im-
poses it (greet tax upon real property
and Leconte; es well as abusiness
lax, A$ a first step it is necessary to
determine the value of every mums
property and the amount of all ' in.
coiner that are. taxable. 'Therefore
an officer called the Assessor, makes
an estlinate, in 'every case and records
it' in it document called the Assess,
ment Roll. Since the amount of
taxes which the owner will have to
pay depends on the assessed value
of his property and the assessed a -
motet of his income, it is. import-
'ant that the work of valuation be
fairly and accurately done. Hence
there is a period :dawed for appeal
against the value set by the Assessor,
All appeals come before a Cburt of
Revision. The Court is composed
of 'five members of the Council, If
a ratepayer is dissatisfied with the
decision of the Court, he may appeal
to the County Judge.
On the assessment of the 'town the
Council fixes each year a rate of tax-
ation which it considers will ..yield
enough revenue to pay all expendi-
tures of the year. The rate is stat-
ed as being a certain of number of
mills on the dollar, A mill is the
One -thousandth part of dollar.
With a tax rate of 34 mitis a
person with property assessed at
$1,000, pays thirty-four dollars in
taxes. Churches, County -buildings
the schools, public library, and pu-
blic property, are exempted from tax-
ation. There is also what Is called
poll -tax, an annual fee of 84.00 a piece
paid by men over Twenty-one and
under sixty, who do not 'otherwise
contribute to the revenue of the
town.
Sometimes In order to arry out
some expensive pubic undertaking
such, for example, as the construction
of a system of waterworks or the erec-
ton of the town hall, the Council may
deem it advisable to borrowmoney in-
stead of defraying the total expense
from the year's taxes. But beforea
by-law to this effect can be Renally
passed, a vote of the ratepayers must
be taken as at an ordinary election. No
person is admitted to the poll, unless
he is an owner of property or a ten-
ant under lease who pays :taxes and
whose covers the period for which
the town is incuring the debt. A
ratepayer may vote in ali 'munici-
pal wards in which he has the nec-
cessary i. qualifications,

Casualties all Through.
The Battle casualties In the Canadian
Expeditionary Force are practically all
through, At the Records Office at Ot-
tawa it was stated that,, though now
and then a fighting casualty,' delayed
for some reason in transmission, came
in, the number of such cases was very.
small. Of course tits does not mean
that there are no more casualties to be
reported. There are still ninny cases
in hospital which will have to be record
ed when the final outcome of the sold-
ier's illness is known,

That the anthracite' fuel situation

made evident by a statement 'issued

coal than last year.
The Work for Refugees.
The Executive of the' Huron County
R. C. & W. C, A. met at Clinton on
Saturday, Dec, 7th. A letter Was read
from 'London Red Cross asking that
we stop all regular Red Cross work
for a few months and devote our
time to work for the repatriated re.
fugees of France and Belgium:' The
meeting ,was unanimous in deciding to
do so,` Every woman in the county
should have some part in this work
of caring for the women and children
of these devastated countries. It was
also decided to place ourselves on
record as being in accord with all ef-
forts put forward to erect suitable
memorials for our fallen soldiers and
our willingness to assist in same,
Not the Same, •
Through a similarity in names a
wrong impression has been created
which may cause a great deal of
harm. A few days ago it was re-
ported to many papers that the
Montreal Hearld had gone into liqui-
dation. The news was true but the
public should know that the paper in
financial difficulties had no connec-
tion whatever with the great Weekly
paper called The Family Herald and'
Weekly Star, The latter paper is
published by the Montreal Star
Publishing Co., and is known in al-
most every home in Canada. In jus-
tice to our confrere we make this an-
nouncement, The Family Herald
and Weekly Stdt "is one ' of the
strongest papers on the Continent,
The word "Family" should not be
omitted when addressing that paper.
"Wild Bill" Baker Dead
Many Clinton baseball fans will
remember "Wild Bill" Baker of St.
Thomas who pitched a game here when
Dick Tasker was playing with Brantford
Baker first played with the Brantford
Club and was released only to be pick-
ed up by the St. Thomas Club, and
later by London. His death is reported
from France, A St. Thomas despatch
states: William (Wild Bill) Baker, the
former London Canadian League base-
ball pitcher, died of pneuhnonia at No.
36 Clearing Station in•France, accord-
ing to official word received' or Satur-
day by his father, W. T. Baker, of 7
Byron avenue, A tetter which reached
here sone time ago, from a trench pal
of William's stated that he was slated
for a medal for distinguished service,
but. the writer did not known whether
it was the M. M. or the D. 'C. M.
Friends here were awaiting further
word when the shocking news of his
death came.
ROBERT STEADS NEW NOVEL
Robert J. C. Stead, In his new novel,
"The Cow Puncher," (Toronto, the
Musson Book 'Co. Ltd., cloth, $1.50),
bas written a notable book with a West-
ern Canada setting David Elden, the
cow puncher of the -story, grows to
young manhood on a ranch in the foot-
hills, outside the influence of church or
school, At eighteen he is accidentally.
thrown into the company of a young
Eastern girl, who enkindles in him the
ambition to be somebody in the world.
With this purpose in view, young.
Elden leaves the ranch and goes to
.make his fortune in a young Western
city. The first night he is swindled out
of all his ready cos bygang h of card-
sharpers, and he takes a job next morn-
ing as coal heaver, F07 a time it looks
as though Dave's course would be down
ward Instead of up, but he fortunately
comes under influences which revive
his ambition for self -betterment.
About this time the big western real
estate boom breaks out and Dave's
course is meteoric. His wealth corner
quickly and goes as quickly. Following
the collapse of the boon: a tragedy in
his love affairs sends hire es an enlisted
man to France, In the closing chapters
is found one of the highest patriotic
notes struck by any, author during the
war.
"7'he Cow Neither" is decidedly
worth while. It is interesting and re-
freshing, and at totes inspiring, written
wth all Mr. Stead's intimate knowledge;
of the West and' skill of delineation,'
Through the book runs a happy vein of
humor and philosophy which is not the
least of 'it's charms. It is illustrated by
Arthur Fleming, exslumber man and
North-West Moulted pohcetnan, and is
annotnneed by the publishers as an all.

ON ACCOUNT OF
SEVERE R'IEAOACHES.
Headaches are generally caused by
some disturbance of the stomach, liver
or bowels, and although tot a serious
complaint, the cause should be removed
before they, become habitual and make
your life miserable.
You will find that. Milburn's Laza.
Liverl
Pil s will remove the mase by
moving the bowels gently, safely and
surely, refreshing and strengthening the
stomach, toning up the liver, and thereby
banishing the headaches,
