Mayor Sutherland was in the chair and Reeve Smith, Councillors Scott, Sproat and Savauge were present. The question of the fitness of milk being supplied in tile town was intro- duced and a report from the Board of Health received. The Board, the week previous, on being advised that milk from tubercular infected cows is possibly being delivered in Seaforth, called an emergency meeting, the re- sult of which was a warning to citi- zens to pasteurize all milk used. Council .took action and as a result, dairies supplying milk in Seaforth are requested to have their herds tested by a vetinary surgeon. The notion, made by Councillor Sproat, seconded by Reeve Smith, was as fol- lows: Resolve in view ocf the re- comlrnendation from the Board of Health, that we ask all persons sup- plying milk in our municipality to have a test taken of their cows by an authorized' veterinary surgeon." (Councillor Scott moved the adop- tion of the finance cothmittee report which was seconded by Councillor Savauge. The report, which was adopted, called for payment of the following accounts and salaries: IM, McLeod, wages, $2; J. Bur- rows, M.D., account, $1;J.

If a big demand for invitations is any indication of attendance, the third annual Seaforth Collegiate Institute Alumni Association reunion dance on Christmas night should be one of the most successful yet held. Special arrangements are being made to ensure guests of a real ev- ening's enjoyment. Excellent music will be furnished by the Royal Col- legians Orchestra, of London, and the program will include special nov- elty numlbers. The price of admission remains the same as last, except that the 1934 membership fee in the Association will be included in rhe admission. It must' be realized that no Alumni social function does more than pay for itself'. All 'overhead expenses must he niet by the 25 cents nominal memlhership fee and to save the ex- ecutive a lot of hard, tireso'm'e work it was thought advisable this year to collect the fee at the dance. (Decorations and lunch will, as in former years. be adequate and all in all the evening promises to he a great success. Imitations have been mailed all members but additional invitations for !Christmas guests, non-members and Collegiate pupil; niay be obtain- ed on application to the secretary, A. Y. McLean, It is also requested that guests purchase admission tickets from the secs"lrary prior to the dance in order to avoid congestion and confusion at the door.

ELECTION FORECAST IN McKILLOP TP. Nominations in Seaforth on Fri- day evening will in all pro'babilfys be much quieter than the meeting of last year. No question of import- ance is before the ratepayers. The change in day from Christmas to the Friday previous may enlarge the attendance somewhat, but this may be onset by the.lack of interest- ing material for discussion. In any case, citizens will have the opportunity of 'hearing the Mayor, Reeve and Council tell of their work of the past year. 'If an election is necessary it will be held on Monday, January let, with polling booths and returning officers as follows: North Ward—Public School: Grant Fraser, D.R.O., John Cum''m:ing, P.C.; Earl Ross, D.R.O., Thomas Johnston, P.C. East Ward in Clerk's Office— J. A. Kerr, D.R.O., J. A. -Westcott, P:C.; Alex. Muir, D.R.O., Horace Wil - bee, P.C. Township nominations are also scheduled for Friday, with McKillop citizens meeting at Winthrop and Tuckersmith at Brucefield. It is not known whether or not Tuckersmith council will be opposed, but is reported that an election will be necessitated in McKillop. omstommr ST. COLUMBAN Catholic Women's League.—The C. W.
