It was felt that much of the t‘me taken was unnecessary and as a result of the discussion the council on motion. of councillors Chas. (Hooper and James Rennie decided in 'future to limit all appeals re relief to five minutes each. In this way it is hoped to expedite the business of the regular council meetings. At this meeting $459.28 was paid out in direct relief being $139.35 foa~ groceries, $141.50 for fuel, $133.83 :4: clothing and $44.60 for medical ac- counts and in addition to this $1704.00 was expended: in relief work on the roads which is apporoicned to the unâ€" employed according to their needs by the township relief officer. ' An account for $300.00 for special audit work in connection with arrears of taxes to W. C. Eddis & Sons was passed for payment. Council authorized payment of the township’s share of preparing voters lists for the recent provinch electron. The total cost of preparing the lisms in York County was $24,435.67 01' which Markham'sr share was $146.33. “We have no alternative but pay it,” said Reeve Padget. A request from the unemployed that the township pay. Hydro bills was reâ€" fused by the council. “We can buy coal oil lamps cheaper,” said Deputyâ€" Reeve Clark. The marriage took place on Satur- day in Victoria Square United Church of Reva. Lillian, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Louis L. Nichols, and‘ Mr. George Douglas \Gee, son of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Gee. Rev. F. A. Gilbert performed the ceremony. The church was attractively decorated with ferns and Chrysanthemums, and Miss Laura Gee, sister of the groom, played the wedding music. During the signing of the register, Mr. E. Avison sang “O, Promise Me.” The bride was gowned in white triple sheer georgette with veil of embroidered net in cap shape and caught with orange blossoms. She carried a bouquet of Talisman roses. Miss Vera. Nichols was her sister's b‘ridlwmaid, gowned in pink silk net and wearing a. pale blue velvet hat and carrying roses. Mr. Fraser Gee, brother of the groom, was best man and the ushers were Mr. Cecil Nich- ols, brother of the bride, and Mr. Harold Wellman, cousin of the bride. Relief problems were aired at the regular Sess7on of Markham town- ship council held on Monday last. Mr. Cornell headed a, deputation of the unemployed in the municipality who are working on township relief pro- jects and strenuously objected to the twenty cent per hour rate of pay paid by the township. He stated it was not a living wage and he and others objected to work‘nvg five days for $8.25. Reeve Padget and deputy- reeve Will Clark will take the matter of the complaint to the Minister of Welfare. The members of council in adhering to the .20 cent per hour rate maintain that they are taking into consideration the ability of the farm)- ers in the township to pay taxes. In view of the very depressed condition of agriculture in the past four years it is held that it is not fair to ask farmers who pay the bulk of the taxes» to pay a rate of pay higher than .20 cents per hour to those on relief. The reception was held at the home of the bvide’s parents, where one hundred guests were entemained. Mrs. Nichols was gown‘ed in triple sheer georgette with hat to match and carried roses; and Mrs. G'ee was in embroidered cbep‘e with hat. to mafldh and her flowers were also TIME FOR RELIEF DEPUTATIONS LIMITED BY COUNCIL Mr. and Mrs. Gee left later for Ottawa and points. east, the bride going- away in a blue crepe frock, hat and accessories to match. On their return they will live in Victoria Square.

R’chmond Hill Young Canadians were eliminated from the Tri-Coumty League race Wednesday night when they went down ,to defeat at the hands of the Owen Sound rough-riders in a. sudden dleath game at Barrie by a score of 12-8. Owen Sound ancfl Al- Iand‘ale now play home and home games next Monday and Friday to decide the second position and the winner will play off with the league leaders, Caledon East, for the cham- pivonshiip. Richmond Hill played last night short the services of “Cal’ Miller who was at the game but unable to playl due to severe injuries to his foot.‘ “Cal” thhas played every game played by Young Canadians since the revival of lacrosse here some yearsl ago was sadly missed by his b93171!“ mates. Ollie Barrett, another of the team’s star performers, was out of the game with an injured knee. Handicapped by the absence of these players the Locals made la. gallant effort and put up a splendid fight against the Owen Sound crew, known as the rough-riders of the league. In the first period Richmond Hill had} the edge on the play and outscored ,their opponents by a score of 2-1 and they deserved at least two other goals on the p‘eriod’s play. In the second stanza Owen Sound got away on a scoring drive and outscored the Hill 5-2. They continued to have the edge on the play and in the third period added four more goals while the best the Young Canadians» could do was get three counters. In the final period the Young Canadians made a. fighting effort to stay in the race for league honors but the final lbell came to end the period 2â€"1 for ‘OWen Sound and' the game 12-8 for the northerners. It was a splendid game for the spectators with lots» of action from start to finish, although only a very small audience was on hand, in fact only about 120 cash customers.

The salary of Charles, Hoover new- 1y appointed treasurer of Markham Township was fixed by by-law at the regular council meeting held Monday last at $800.00 per annum.

On-e slip had the figure $750.00, two had $800.- 00 and one $1000.00. The salary of $800.00 appeared a. fair average and it was unanimously agreed that this be the amount to he paid.
