was rooeiv from the dartmeot last too many chances the country ib face to face with a setions problem there are too many ohaacee being taken and too many people being injurnd be- cause of the ohanoetajking habit the motorist who habttrjally takes chances is reasonably aura to be involved ultimately id an accident tbe same general rale applies to tbe pedestrian the worker in in dustry who baa not time or thinks he has not tine tobe careful is hastening the day of his injury and the employer who praters to take a chance rather than provide safeguards for his dangerous me- ebinery ts inviting injury to bis men and increased oompenaatioo ooata for himself and other em ployers in his class too roan ohanoes are being taken in a country that needs to conserve all its forces but mora particularly tbe lives of its otti s there in a saying that the chance taker is tbe accident- mak er and this has been abundantly proven hj the history of aoctdents in todnatry in this country on the other hud there is a record of a foreman in a wire plant in hamilton knowing 60 years of ser fion with never sa accident to himself nor a eenous snoident to anyone in his department tbe ion he advances m bemg care fu it sounds simple but some- tiroes it isa most difficult role to play the toll of accidents tu and out of industry however quite justifies more attention to care and cantion and the onrhmr of tbe take a chance spirit month the amount was not qoea tioaed but a detail of the account was asked for which reaated an error being tonad whum red ed the couotya liability bj some 1

advertised for and will be opened at a pm- no vember 84 the council decided to borrow s6000 to meet ordinary current esses for tbe year until paid this being an addition to tbe 110000 already borrowed bylaw to this effect was introduc ed and passed two communications were read asking for damages as a result of accidents on county highways a neilaoo georgetown sated tor so to cover damage done- to hie autor which ran off the road owing to alleged faulty conbtrno- tion ot the roadway and alfred metcalfe through his solicitor asked for 176 covering damages amounting to 76 on bis auto and 100 to the oar of a bridges ot hamilton caused through a col lision near bell e school house nelson township sieged to be due to a washout on the road council took no action on either claim the letters being filed the olerk was instructed to ad so s a commiford toronto and hamilton highway commission that council wdl pay its share of the construction of the oajmlle bridge when tbe structure is oom pleted this waa in aooordaace with the original agreement ac cepted by the former minister p o- biggb elliott d marks will be paid 1800 for the usfoot ooncrete beam bridge constructed by them at tbe 8th line between baqoearog and georgetown council refused to consider the request for an increase of 800 per annum in the salary of the superintendent ot the house or refuge for peel and halton it was round that 70 had el ready been paid onthe account of the salvation army fnbmainteu anoe of one leather gardiner and therefore the balance only 880 was ordered paid instead of the whole amount as recorotnended at hut meeting the treasurer was instructed to pay the board qt edocatioo oak ville the balance due on agnoul tnral grants to end of 1988 amounting to 1000 deputy reeve robinson of oak villa called attention to tbe fact that in spits of a resolution passed at last meeting to have the money paid no action had been taken- nor had any reason bean given for the delay and the school board need ed the money warden irving said that the rea given hrrn for the delay was that no proper requisition bad been handed in a duplicate copy the claim was imroediately turned in by beeve bobmsou and the resolution pens 3d when a reso was introduc ed charging trafalgar township with 16 tbe cost ot painting tour signs tor a railway orossing at bronte reeve morden objected saying that the county should pay for it as the signs were need on county roads he gained point and the county decided to pay the bill out of current c- oonnts a oammomcation was read from an insurance company offering council protection againbt acci dents on roads and highways in the county quite a length discussion took place on lb is question some of tbe couneil being id favor of this fqrm of protection while others would only favor it if all township roads and streets were included beeve morden said that because the county had been fortunate eoough to have no claims made on there was no telling when a serious aociflentdagbt oo cur and he felt that ifwoald be money well spent to have the pro tection to settle the question a resolution was finally jdra tjoud begs respectfully to inform tbe

upon a good civic govern meat than is commonly supposed the people succeed in electing good candidates and in keeping their affairs id order r they coo stantly show a lively and intelli gent interest in civio affairs if tbey are careless and apathetio no particular system of civic admini at rati on will give satisfaction hvery where it is increasingly difficult to get strong and capable men to accept offleiafduties which involve a grea sacrifice of time and which are too often a thank lens task the more lively and generalabe interest of the taipaj ere tw better the chance to get good candidates and satisfactory government whether the term be one year or two ddrinq the was there ware many drives to raise money for the numerous schemes incidental to that great conflict in fact it was just one drive after another the drives were so saooessfal in gathering in the coin that they have- been continued and it is a drive fortbis that and the other the days of easy money have iong passed and people have be come weary and bred of tnves they are beginning to kick about ha t p into their pockets snd dig up tbe money to support schemes that they do not wholly approve with high taxes dear foel and increased expense the ordinary bubineismsn ana cituen has to keep his nose to the grindstone m order to make ends meat and there is a general feeling that it la about time to end alldnveb on whether in the case of an aotn dent the county as a whole nr the municipality in which the accident occurred would be held liable pilling for the georgetown bridge is required at once in order that it may be opened for traffic an early date and unless ar rangements can be made to get tbe required material from the im mediate vimniltt will be neoea sary co baa i it a long distance tbe

u facto rem ont there gtvx a bot bvkbxthino he d someday hell want a pardon from the department of jostaoe to see sn over indal gent fool ol a father allowing a cub of a boy to lead him round by the nose is a most dutrabsing sight to say person with enough ima in their make op to enable him to look into tbe dis tant future the boy who is al lowed everything be wants and ex peota everything he asks for is lay ing up a load of trouble fqr the kind aad indulgent old man whose later borrows are only in tbe mak mg we have a strong belief in the kindly feelings that should be felt by a parent to hi child but we are equally strong in the belief that parents an entitled to the respect of their children while seventy on the part of parents is to be deplored over indulgence ib not to be commended hukxoas rbad it snob a question was asked of every ratepayer in georgetown tbe ohanoes are that scarcely one would be able to reply in tbe amxxoative tbey would be oom pelted to say that the monicipal ejec are something tbey have not given a thought to possibly some would declare that there was very little to do any considering over- that things were running amoothly and that consequently there was no reason for bothering about the elections such an sd mission would be very hne but it is not right that snob an import ant question should be soligntly set aside it is the doty of every ratepayer to pay attention to mat tars so closely connected with thai pockets and the fact that the elections are only a few weeks away necessitates some liveliness being interjected into tbe forth coming weeks if the proper atten boo is to be paid to tbe issues in volved there is a growing gener al cnboism of theapparent apathy oo the part of citizens in respect of mnnicipal affairs it has been charged in some localibrs that lack of public interest has serious ly interfered with progress ob- viooaly it is a duty ot every voter to study issues snd carefully scan the records and qoah float tons of candidates with a view to protect ing and advancing public interests this is true in mnmoipal as well as in provincial and dominion elections business men and others who by virtue of their posi boos id civic life are familiar with municipal matters should interest themselves acbvelv in the seleo- bon of the town e officials prom their points ot vantage tbey are better able to judge tbe qualifies bona of then seeking office than are the greater number of voters some members of council have signified their loteabon of retir and it ta hoped there will be a good field of capable men to ing solicitor dicktorlegal otoiotrn to bu tbe vacancies oo tbe council board there are also three retiring school trustees to be dealt with and it is most important that capable men have charge of our edooaboual anaira good work has been accomplished in town dnnng the past year in both edooatiooal aad envio mat ters greater advancement has been made in putting down paved streets than in any previous year and our new waterworks system baa been completed in addition to tbe ordinary business of tbe town good work has been done by this year a council as k whole and it should be tbe duty ot the ratepey era to
