R, B, Smith, deputy rceve of East Whitby, spon- sored the resolution while Reeve Sommerville, of Port Perry, was sec- onder, Almost every member of the coun- cil spoke of the hazards existing at this crossing but several objected to sending the resolution to the Dom- inion Railway Board, as had been first suggested, on the ground that if the intimation came from the county council then the board might "saddle" the council with a large share of the expenditure, Reeve Kenny, of Whitby, pointed out that in the close of the Dundas street crossing of the Whitby-Lind- say branch of the Canadian National when agitation had been made sev- eral years ago to have a wig-wag signal installed, the town council of that date had found that the rail- way board would charge a large por- tion of the cost to the town "even though the suggestion for the signal had not originated with the munici- pality.

DIVISION OF COST OF NEW BRIDGE IS AGREED UPON ONTARIO COUNTY TO PAY $28,834 TOWARDS EXPENSE Atherley Bridge Question Has Not Yet Been Defin- itely Settled (By Staff Reporter) Whitby, Yan 2.~Ontario county will pay $28,834.52 as its share of the cost pr § erecting the new bridge spanning the "narrows" between Lakes Couchicing and Simcoe and joining Ontario and Simcoe counties. A recommendation to pay this a- mount was brought in by the roads and bridges committee yesterday af- 1 ternoon, Simcoe county's share also amounts to $28,834.52 while the De- 4 partment Railways and Canals has contributed $39,599.60 while the De- partment of Highways for Ontario has agreed to share in the cost to the extent of 50 per cent. of the bal- ance of the total cost which amounts to $39,060.19. The total cost of the bridge amounted to $118,819.98, or $18,819.98 more than the original es- timate of $100,000 due to the fact that the engineers of the Department of Railways and Canals insisted upon certain changes in the original plans including the electrical operation of the swinging span, The structure was completed two ycars ago and with interest and carrying charges the to- tal now amounts to $137,428.82, The Atherley Bridge The much dispued "Atherley Bridge" question has not yet been finally settled however, for Ontario county does not withdraw its con- tention that the Department of Rail- ways and Canals should share in 40 per cent, of the cost over the esti- 5] mated figure. This contention is also upheld by Simcoe county. It was, therefore, decided that it be left to Warden Dobson to appoint a com- mission to interview the department at Ottawa and if possible arrange a final settlement, Reeve G. M, Forsyth, of Pickering township, expressed the opinion that the Department of Highways be pursuaded to assume the bridge as it was a connecting link in the To- ronto-Muskoka provincial Highway. "l regret that this matter has hung fire so long and that such large in- terest charges have been added to the cost," Reeve Forsyth commented. Anxious to Pay Reeve Ross, of Thorah, would not agree that large intercst charges had been added. He contended that if debentures had been issued the in- terest would have been paid anyway. He was anxious, however, that pay- ment be made to Simcoe county as to date it had looked after the finan- cing. The fact that the Department of Highways was paying 50 per cent, of the balance of the cost he regard- for Economical Trensportation eyond all Expectations, --say those who have seen the Outstanding Chevrolet of Chevrolet History ~a Six in the price range of the four!

There were now 56 old people being cared for and he wondered what effect the proposed Old Age Pension Act would have upon them. No doubt those who were desirous to stay could help sup- port themsclves if they were in re- ceipt of a government pension and this would decrease the county's ex- pense, he thought, Dr. McGillivray adyised the repre- sentatives of the various municipali- ties to be judicious in their commit- tals to the House of Refuge, He did not wish the institution to become a shelter for people who were able to take care of themsclves. With re- gard to the frigidaire installed last year he commended the action of the council as the new equipment had proved sanitary and adequate, Warden Dobson commended Dr. McGillivray for his work and expres- sed the opinion that he had the wel- fare of the old people at heart.
