The potatoes were grown by Sidney Jones, of the third con- cession of Vaughan and are as fine as sample as you would wish to see. There are fifteen potatoes in the window and their combined weight is 30 pounds. At this rate it would take 45 to make a bag, and at $2.00 per bag figures nearly five cents each. Mr. Jones has about six and a half acres whi- ch will yield about 1200 bags. They are of the “Dooley” var- iety and were highly .commen- ‘ded by the judge who made the ‘award in_tl_1e competition.

Mr. David Hill and Mr. Albert R. Hill appeared as a deputation urg- ing that the petition for a sidewalk on the west side of Church Street, north from Centre Street, be acted upon this year by the council. The petition was originally presented three years ago and a second petition was pre- sented a short time ago asking that action be taken. The council laid the matter over as they felt that the fin- ances did not warrant the expenditure of any money for sidewalks this year. The members of the deputation strong 1y urged that action be taken and pointed out that it was little incentive to build houses if you had to wait and tramp through the mud for a couple of years. It was intimated that there would probably be a petition for a side walk on the east side of north Yonge Street and also a walk on the west side of Yonge in front of the Anglican and Presbyterian churches. The |council decided to look over Church Street and see conditions for them- selves. It'was decided to let the question Town Council October Meeting of eave for the been cc factory factory job. Richmond Street and Centre Street East will be scarified and rolled and it: was agreed that the Reeve enter neg- otiations to have this work done at once. The cost of the scarifier will be about thirty dollars per day. The town grader will also be used and it is hoped in this way to put these two streets in first class condition. The section of road at the west limâ€" {its of the Village which was graded isome time ago will be given a coat of gravel. It is estimated this will take about 200 yards of gravel which will cost about $2.00 per yard. Councillor Sims suggested that the “rubbish” piled in the park be sorted over and all that could not be used be sold. The town will advertise for tenders for the year’s supply of coal for the municipalbuildings. ‘ ' its of some 1 gravel about cost a] Councillor Middleton introduced the question of handling the arena during the coming season. He pointed out that the operation of the rink had meant a great deal of work, the mem- bers of the council and that the finan- cial returns had not been in keeping with the expenditure of time effort and money. He suggested that p11» bably if it were leased to a private party it might be more profitable to the municipality. On motion of coun- cillors Middleton and Davis the clerk was instructed to insert an advertiseâ€" .ment offering to lease the arena for {the year." i The offer of Y. B. Tracey, of five e dollars per foot for sixty feet of town < property beside the Innes mill proper. x ty was accepted by the council. Coun- a: cillor Sims suggested that since the -; town had sold this property and rea- xilized three hundred dollars that the k lmoney be 'used for numbering of the ,u‘houses of the village. A motion to :< this effect by councillor Sims and sec- f: onded by councillor Middleton was i .carried. The sponsors of the motion g |were appointed a committee to secure ,* samples and prices and have the work . done. Councillor Sims drew attention to } arrears in electric light accounts and ‘ pointed out that the Hydro regulations ‘ stated definitely that all users over i tw0 months in arrears be cut off with-‘ ‘out notice. Members of the councill were agreed that this regulatrm should be enforced to the letter and a] motion to this effect was passed. Light and Power users must there" fore pay up promptly or the juice will‘ be shut off until all arrears are paid up. The regulation met with the apâ€" proval of the members as it was felt that delinquent ones caused a great deal of unnecessary work for the elecâ€" tric light chairman and for the clerk and that moreover the Hydro regu~ lations should be abided by in this municipality. _ A Councillor Middleton asked if any- thing had been done towards cleaning the War Memorial. He suggested that it be cleaned and the lettering be colored. Councillor Middleton and Reeve Lunau were appointed as a committee to interview the members of the Memorial Committee with the view of having the work done at once. There is about $200, in the memorial fund clerk A. J. Hume stated and any expenditure would be taken from this account. Ex-Reeve H. Trench and Ex-councillor J. A. Greene constitute the Memorial Committee. The com- mittee was originally a committee of three, but no successor has been nam- ed to the late William Innes. On motion of councillors Middleton and Mansbridge there will be a collec- tion of garbage on December 3rd whi- ch will be the final collection for the year. .'was decided ave-troughs f‘ the present. 1 constructed d to let the question for the arena lay over .
