Fire of unknown origin broke out in the Douglas Rackham gar- age at the extreme south end of the village at Robins' corner late Monday night after everyone had gone. At about 2:30 a.m. a gentle- man driving from the north through the village and turning west at this corner, discovered what he thought looked like a fire in the building and quickly notified nearby residents who -vre quickly on the scene, hav- ing informed the proprietor also of what was taking place. After soedfficulty the fire was ex- tinguished by means of a fire ex-I tinguisher which one of the men located -by making his *way through the dense smoke in the building.

M ELCUIYAND LINCOLN DIVISION Ford Motor Company of Canada, Limited Nomination Meeting (Continued fromn Page One) on Civic and War Activities and would contest for the mayoralty. Deputy Reeve Northcutt out- lined his Public Property work and indicated' his intention tç stand for Mayor. Finance Councillor Nicholas reviewed Finance and expected to qualify for Deputy Reeve. He said that while some departments were over estimates, some were under, and the budget would probably level off satisfactorily by Dec. 31. Total debenture debt, Dec. 31, '46, will be $101,997.24. Tax arrears, 1946, were $14,043; previous an- rears $6,176, wîth much o! these expected to be paid by the year's end. Paid, out on town housing s0 far was $55,644, part o! which was financed out of the McGill be- quest. Debentures presently pen- ding for sewer and disposai plant, etc., $200,000. Councillor Baker reported. on the Fire Department which, when present readjustments were com- pleted, would be the 'best equip- pedi in the town's history. From his remarks the meeting took the impression he too would run for Mayor. Councillor Allison, ne- porting on Police Committee, gave due credit to Chief o! Police Sid- ney Venton for a fine record in local law enforcement. He was definite in stating he would run for Deputy Reeve. Councillor 'Gaeton, Chairman o! Roads and Streets, the tough- est job of the lot, outiined the difficuit conditions met in regard to labor andi materials, but re- ported fine progress with much yet to do. He would be content to continue as a mere councillor and finish the job. No other no- minees for council spoke at the meeting. The two remaining speakers were M. J. Elliott and Ross Strike, K.C., who outlined the position of the Public Utilities. A sum- mary of their remarks appears in another column. No candi-' date for the Board of Education spoke on school affains. A sum- mary of the Mayor's address is given elsewhere in this edition. The above addiresses are publîsh- edi for information of ratepayers generally. Nominated Below are the names submitted and duly attested on the nomina- tion forms. Those who declined to qualify are indicateci with an For Mayor: Little, Northcutt*, Morris*, Nicholas*. For Reeve: Allison, Northcutt*, Nichoias*. Counciliors: Garton, Dilling, Clifi Samis*, J. O'Neill*, Council- lor E. J. Gibbs*, J. F. Nickerson*, Charles Carter, Sr.*. It is understood that the Mun- icipal Act requires nominations to be held, with due 7 days' no- tice until a new council has been completely constituted. Mean- time the old council must carry on even if it runs into the new year. Disappointment The disappointments referred to in the opening paragraph above are: That no new council can be constituted as a result of the meeting: That several declined to stand a!ter indicating their intention so to do; that no speak- er deaIt with the terms of con- tracts entered into and any over- payments made or contemplated; that no natepayer rose to ask any question in this regard. Some speakers credited The Statesman with bringing out the large gathering by having in ad- vance, at the insistence of many ratepayers, published what facts could be learneti on the town's business. Praises Lions Club (Continued from Page One) Sanatoria are found unable to resume for- mer occupations, such as the hea- vy work o! farming for instance, and the work involves replace- ment in other fields o! endeavor. X-Ray Clinics The first great problem was to find practical means o! learning who and how many were infect- ed across the province. So in 1941 the Provincial Department of Health provided X-Ray equip- ment and set out on a wide sur- vey. By 1944 no less than 500,000 people had been examined and thousands o! cases, panticularly in the minimal stage had been un- covered. Part o! this great work !ell to the local Lions Club in or- ganizing thé chest X-nay clinic last year. Turning to finance, Mr. O'Brien said that the provincial organiza- tion took not a single dollar from !unds raiseti iocally. The oniy money that went outside the dis- trict was 10 per cent !orwarded to the Canadian Association and 90 per cent was retained in the district in which the money was raised.Fi a c During the past year 35 new (Continued !rom Page One) trict who were named at the prev- ious organizational meeting on Oct. l8th. This body will meet from time to time to discuss policy and details and the above named executive will give effect to the decisions made. The Director chosen will act under authonity o! the executive and will be the key figure in organizing and co-ordin- ating ail the activities, cultural, athletic andi otherwise, which will be, carnied on wîthin the com- munity, but without distunbing the autonomy o! any individual organization. As a matter o! record the steps taken leading to the formation o! the Community Council were as follows: First a general meeting was calleti by Mayor C. G. Morris at which a provincial organizer outlined the scheme which has proveti o! great advantage in many other communities. Second an organizing meeting was called at which interim officers were el- ected to lay the ground work for a permanent setup. Third, the Town Council unanimously ne- cognized the Community Council Get Your Christmas Gifts NOW Woodbury Men Sets-------$1.00 Fitch Mèn Sets ------- $1.00 Gillette Razor Sets--------- 98c-$5.00 Shick Razors -------- 98e Yardley Shave Lotion --- 85c-$1.45 Woodbury Shave Lotion ---- 25c-50c Shave Bowls 39c-75c-$1.25 Colgate's Men Sets ----------- $1.49 Palmolive Men Sets ------------ $1.95 Sutton Men Sets S2 - 3 pieces -- $3.-$4.-$4.50 :Men's Travelling Cases, silk Il *Men's Travelling Cases, fltted PhoneCO IG' . CO LI5' eEyes Examined locals had been formed which brought the provincial total to 83. It was expected that the grand total of fundl; gathered this year would be in the neighborhood of $450,000. The Ontario Associa- tion received a grant from, the provincial government, from the Life Officers Association, from individuals and a few other sour- ces out of which the budget was laid down. In conclusion the speaker told that Cobourg Hospital was the first on the continent to provide X-ray chest examinations for ev- ery patient admitted, no matter what the accident or disease. He suggested that this new departure would be widely employed and would be o! interest even today in Bowmanville and particularly when the new hospital was com- pleted. Mr:. O'Brien congratulated the Lions Club for its great work in a needful field and, pred-icted suc- cess in the present Christmas Seal Drive now opening on a contin- ent wide basis. Bob Kent moved the vote of thanks which touched off a round of applause for a most informative picture of a grand fight against T.B.
