two very commcndible resolutions emanating froi elgin county council were endorsed by hnlton county council the one regarding the opposition to the tax collected by the performing nights society we

brighter outlook in reviowing tho year just closing it would appear that general improvement could be noted true it may be in some instances difficult of discernment but if isgencrally admitted thatthtjitrendhaaall been upward business reports all carry this general note of improvement and the statement that 1935 has been tho biggest improvement in the past five years the new year is therefore faced with more optimism than for tho last few continuance of business expansion will no doubt be shown to those who have confidence und are ready to make use of the opportunities no doubt the new year will give the biggest returns elections which have been jnaybe toogeneralarcscttlcd oranotherpcriodand business can proceed with some definite understand ing of general policy it would
