fire marshal was being asked to in-
vestigate the recent fire in town and

Chairman Inkley gave a' verbal re-
port on the cemetery, saying that
the lots designated for the soldiers
had been taken over and were being
put into shape. The cemetery, ,he -
reported, in excellent shape.
Mr. Holmes, chairman of the pro-
perty committee, reported a visit
made to the Public Utilities Commis-
sion, when the matter of rates, rent
of rest room, ownership of building,
etc., were discussed. He said there
was no chance of a reduction of rent
at present. He reported that the
property belonged to the Clinton
Public Utilities Commission. Mr.
Inkley thought the Commission
should assume the responsibility of
keeping the rest room clean for the
rent received.•
A long discussion was indulged in
regarding a family recently coming
into town from an outside municipal-
ity and who are applying for relief.
On motion of Oouneillors Walker and
Inkley the chief was instructed to
inform then`n that the municipality
from whence they came must be re-
sponsible for their maintenance.
'Another discussion which dragged
out to some length was in regard to
getting some work done on the
streets, Councillors Holmes and Ink -
ley making a motion to the effect
that "The street committee arrange
for drainage to be done in co-opera-
tion with grants with Federal and
Provincial Governments, and report
to a special meeting of, the council."
Reeve Elliott and Councillor Pais-
ley sponsored another motion to "Call
special meeting of the council .to
look in to the finances before any
decision is made for street work."
Reeve Elliott was strong for
counting the cost before snaking the
plunge, and Finance Minister Paisley
agreed. Councillor Holmes had no
objection to looking into the finances
but he thought it would be good busi-
ness to get some of this work done
while the weather was good and that
it was a better plan than handing out
relief. Men would mueh rather work
and get paid for it than accept re-
lief. Finally both motions carried
A special meeting of the council will
ocnsider the natter and something
in the way of relief work will prob•
ably be arranged for. But the street
committee will face a deficit this
Year, anyway, as they have exceeded
their estimate. The County Engineer
had not yet sent in an account of the
work done on streets.

the report of the two games played
with Listowel in which the cup was

formerly held the cup but it must
have been well over twenty years

and while not a' member of the team
often practiced with it, informs us
that in the autumn of 1911 the Clin-

is his opinion that Listowel had had
