PAGE FOUR First Meeting Vaughan Council The inaugural session of Vaughan township council on Monday Was hon- ored by the presence of Rev. A M. Partridge of Maple United Church and Rev. C. H. Bowman of Maple Presbyterian Church. Rev. Partridge taking part in the inaugural cere- mony gave a very fitting address and Rev. C. H. Bowman delivered a prayer asking divine blessing and guidance for the coming year. Foll- owing the inaugural proceedings which included the swearing in of the members, all re-elecbed by ac- clamation, the regular busmess s fion was held. T. H. Kersey, E. G. Kyle and F‘. MacNaughton, assessors of last :ear, along with all fence viewers, ;:ound keepers and sheep valuers were rc-appointeci. A delegation of Vellore ratepayâ€" ers asked the co-opcration of coun- eil in the erection of a water tank for fire prevention in the Vellore district. Memlbers of council express- ed their sympathy» with the underâ€" taking and if the project goes ahead it will likely be assisted by a small township grant. Following a request for gravel there was a general discuSSion of road problems and it was hinted that with the improved financial position of the township there was a possi- bility that material placed on the roads- this year would be crushed gravel. This it was generally agreed was a very desirable form of maâ€" ierial. It was intimated that. ’t was the 'ntention of the council to hold a tax <ale in 1937. At December 15th tax irrears amount-ed to $33,012.84 and It is hoped by! means of a tax saic to greatly reduce this total of ar- rears. There are over three and a half million trucks on United States highâ€" ways and it is expected that nearly 900,000 new trucks will \be .built in Canada and the United States next year General accounts were passed tnt- alling $485.93, road accounts $149.55.

CARRVILLE try expect- or ed to spread to other parts of the country. 95 An idea of the economic and 3‘} eugenic value of the gift pen may a" be derived from the fact. that the eleven animals took first prize at the annual Kerry Hill Sheep Fair where some 10,000 to 15,000 sheep were shown. Besides being able ,r_ to withstand bleak weather, these ~io sheep are handsome and symme- m, trical, and will. it is felt, prove of 3b! great value to Canadian farmers. The congregational meeting of the United Church here was held Mon- day evening, Jan. 11th. A very tempting dinner was served at seven . by the ladies and enjoy-ed by those who attended. After dinner the an- nual meeting was held, Rev. Mr. Davis presiding. All departmentsâ€" Sunday School, Y.P.U., W.A., and the church itself gave excellent reports for the year. No deficits and in one or two instances good balances were shown. Mr. Davis congratulated the congregation on the excellent work done during,r 1936. Then followed the election of officers. The session, stewards, treasurer and other officers were re-elected for the coming year. A special committee of C. Diceman, W. Clarkson and E. Carson was ap- pointed to act with Mr. Davis re- garding choice of a minister to sucâ€" ceed Mr. Davis who will be leaving the pastorate at the end of this con- ference year. The meeting voiced the sentiments] expressed by the lad- ies, Mrs. Wm. Windas and Mrs. E. Carson who moved a vote of appreâ€" ciation for the services. of Mr. Davis in regard to the W. A. Coupled with this Mr. E. Carson voiced the sentiâ€" ments of the congregation in regard to the work of the pastor during the severe years he has been here. A very pleasing feature of the ev- ening came when Mr. Davis, on beâ€" half of the congregation, expressed in a short address the appreciation of the church to Mrs. W. William- son who has been organist and choir leader for some years, doing excellâ€" ent work, sometimes sacrificing her- self for the good of the service of song. As a tangible express-ion Mrs. Williamson was presented with a. comrforter, a pair of blankets and a purse of money. Mrs. Williamson re- plied very feelingly in response to the gifts. A very amicable and en- joyable meeting was brought to a close with the benediction by Mr. ‘Davis.
