The reeve and members felt that good results had been obtained and the cost was quite satisfactory and con- siderably lower than paid in some municipalities. Reeve Greene sug- gested that the program be con- tinued and that by building a certain amount each year a notable improve- ment would soon be accomplished. He mentioned Elizabeth Street and Lorne Avenue as two streets which would need attention next year. Dr. R. L. Langstaff and two others petitioned the municipal council for the construction of a sidewalk on the east side of Church Street north from Centre Street. The petition which was sufficiently signed was accept- ed by council but being received so late in the year action was laid over until next spring. On motion of councillors Little and Nelson a grant of $500 was voted for the King and Vaughan Plowmen’s Association. How to combat the army of star- lings which has rbeseiged the town was one question which baffled the members of the municipal council at the regular monthly meeting Mon- day night. The use of fire-arms, poison gas and the local fire depart- ment were all suggested but when adjournment hour came the members were still trying to find some effec- tive method of dealing with thesu unwelcome visitors. In certain sec- tions of the town the starlings have settled by the thousands and have created such a nuisance that some definite action may soon have to be taken. The sidewalks in the area concerned are so dirty that they have had to be cleaned. Some-one sug- gestedpaying a bounty but it was feared that with the youth of the tmfin'after starlings using all kinds of weapons the cure, might be worse than the disease. The nuisance has recurred annually at this time of year when great swarms of these birds make a temporary home in the North Yonge Street district, but ev- ery year it would seem to be getting worse as the birds come in continu- ally increasing numbers. Councillor Mills suggested a byâ€"law prohibiting starlings nesting in the municipality but the police department feared en- forcement of such a by-law might prove too burdensome without sui â€" stantial additions to the force. Councillors H. J. Mills and Alex Little were authorized to go ahead with the erection of a metal shed for storage of village tools and equip- ment. The huilding will be 18 by 24 feet and will be located at the park just west of the lock-up. The cost will be $206 in addition to the eX< pense of putting in concrete abut- ments.

THURSDAY, OCTOBER 6th, 1938 l At the regular monthly meeting {of Vaughan Township Council held fiat Vellore Monday clerk and treas- {urer James M. McDonald gave fig- :ures which showed the substantial lreduction in relief ecsts in the town- ‘ship in the past two years. Relief icost figures for the first nine [months of this year totalled $12,- 13‘01.00. For the same months last year the cost was $14,274 and in 1936 relief expenditure for the period of January to September amounted to $18,832.78.

However after considerable debate it was felt-even a man on duty all night would not be much protection against night thieving as the operator‘s easily could watch his movements and time their activities accordingly. Three places were entered by thieves last week and in one case a substantial amount was stolen, Mr. E. Leno suf- fering the loss of tools and equipâ€" ment estimated at $200. Farmers who were put to expense in fighting the Army Wor-m in Mark- ham Township this summer will be recompensed thy the t0wnship treas- ury to the extent of one-half of their outlay for material used. This was decided at the regular meeting of the Markham township council held at Unionville Monday afternoon when a motion “to this effect by council- lors Albert Reesor and Harry Bar- ber was adopted. All accounts to be paid by the Township treasurer must be approved by the District Agri- cultural Representative. Accounts swbmitted for payment amount to improved employment situation in the municipality.

Anyone who neglects to comply with the regula- tions. will be given a summons to court. The report of the building inspec- tor for the month of September showed permits issued in the period for buildings to the value of $22,- 820, made up of $21,700 for resi- dences and $1120 for other buildings. One resident of the township has al- ready appeared in court for violat- ing the building layâ€"law and he was allowed a period of time by the mag- istrate to comply with the township regulations. ‘ A grant of $15.00 was made to the East York Plowmen’s Association to assist in the prize list for the annual match. $270. It was reported to council that seventeen dog owners in the town- ship had been summoned to court for failure to pay the dog license. All but one settled ‘before court and the one who appeared before the magis- trate was let go on suspended sent- ence with instructions to report to the court when he had secured the proper license.
