The meetingcioeed with" the Lord's prayer; Council Meeting --The regular meet- ing of the Pillage Council for Janu- ary was held oil Monday evening, All the . members present with peeve Higgins in the chair, The minutes of the last meeting were read and- adopted ndadopted on motion of Petty and Cameron. A number of eo untunicaM tions were read and ordered to be filed, The Reeve stated that the col- lector, Mr, Hemphill, who was in To- ronto,. had left statement with h regarding the 1927 tales, an that all the taxes were paid in with •the ex» ception of two properties, which were several years behind, A number of accounts were presented and ordered Paid. ,Bylew No. 1 appointing the .dif- ferent officials for the town for 1928,1 was then read and adopted. It, was moved by Councillor Priest, seconded by Councillor Cameron, that the mat- 1 ter of appointing officials be leftover until the nextregular meeting, and for applicationsto be received for the positions up till the tithe of the next meeting. The Reeve asked , for any! amendment to the motion, and there being none, he put the inotion to the Council, which was carried, Several other bylaws were read, but were re- ferred to the next meeting. 'Bylaw No 2 was to set the date of the an- nual nomination to the first Monday in December, polling to be one week later and the poll to open at eight o'- clock instead of nine. As there was some doubt as to the authority of the Council in setting the hour of the opening of the poll,- it was decided to leave Bylaw No. 2 to be taken up at the next meeting. ting, b it The members of the Council thought this would •be a good move, as it is one which is' being adopted in other places, to do away with the elections an the holiday time, Bylaw No, 3, which was also referred to the next meeting, and which is finding favor in a great many places, is to collect the taxes twice a' year instead of once, and to give a` discount of five per cent on. the first half col- lected. We believe this would be quite a help to the average ratepayer to not have to pay the full amount at once, especially, as at present, at a time of the year when there is a greater demand on the purses of the average ratepayer, and by paying half in the month of June when money and work are more plentiful. The Reeve asked that the work of the Council be divided up into committees, and ask - ,ed tor a fire and light committee, and a street committee to be formed, said committees to be composed of two members of the Council and the Reeve. The Reeve stated that he was not very well satisfied with the way the busihess of the town was conducted, teams being put on haul- ing gravel, and men being put to work without any check on their time, and their bills are put in and paid. He suggested that the different committees keep a check on the dif- ferent accounts and o,k. them before presenting them to the Council. Councillors Petty' and Sangster were appointed to the fire and light com- mittee and Councillors Priest and Cameron to the street committee, the Reeve to be a member of each com- mittee, Mr. George Follick was ap- pointed a member of the Library Board for another term and Rev. Mr. Jones was appointed to fill out the term of the Rev. Mr. Naylor on the Library Board. Before the meeting adjourned the Reeve brought up the matter of the light in the front of the residence of Miss Jessie Bell en King street east. He explained to the Ceencil the reason the Light was plac- ed there and that Miss Bell had ag- reed to pay far it. He stated that it titan setting a bad precedent, and es- pecially on our back streets where anyone could demand a light, if they would pay for it, and in case the pro- perty was sold, the next owner might possibly refuse to pay for it, so he thought it would be better for the Council to keep full control of the lighting system of the streets. As the light in front of Miss 'Bell's was plac- ed there in the first layout of the lighting system of the town, and was afterwards moved, and as the ditches are somewhat dangerous there, the Reeve asked the Council to put that light on the town lighting system, and relieve Miss Bell of any further lia- bility. The Council then adourned to meet again on Monday, Feb. Gth. Mr, A. Hemphill is in Toronto this week on business. Mr. Robert 'Higgins is in Goderich this week on business.
