The annual meeting of St. John's Men's Club was held Tuesday ev- ening, January lth with a fine chicken dinner, with the Carter Famiiy catering for 50 members who were present to, enjoy the good things provided. After full justice was done to the excellent catering,--the balance of the even- ing was spent at the Parish hall. Devotional exercises were fol- lowed- by election of these off i- cers: Hon. President, Canon C. R. Spencer; president, Reg. Hard- ing; vice-presîdent, Lawry Cryd- erman; secretary-treasurer, Har- ry Sutton. The rector congratulated the officers and~ members on the very successful year just ciosed-the most satisfying and enterprising year in the history of the club which now has a membership of about 85. Prospects are 'bright and encouraging for an even better year and the rector feit that with the leadership of the new offi- cers, and- the co-operation of the membershîp very fine meetings wouid resuit. A smaii gift was presented to everyone in keeping with the spirit of good fellowship whieh highlights this organization. Carpet bowling and various card games were enjoyed during the balance of the evening. The membership of this club is now open to ail men' in town, whether or not they are affiliated. with St. John's Church. Tuesday evening the club journeyed to Port Hope and enjoyed an even- ing of bowling and good fellow- ship with the Port Hope club. Home and School Club (Continued from Page One) ers of these can assist each other by support and encouragement and co-ord-ination of effort with the public. Continuing, the speaker stress- ed that it is a graduai growth and unfoiding of latent possîbilities that make for development and not the sensational, the surface means of progress, the lovely projects of the exceptional class, or those for cred4t or reward on- ly. To develop in recreational pursuits, do the things not being clone and~ look for new ideas. Second to leadiership is a build- ing which should 'be ample to co- ver the needs of the whole comn- rnunity. The overaîl costs are small compared with the return on the investmnent. One of the greatest contribu- tions a director can make is the teaching of local leaders to assist in sports, hobbies and crafts. Paid assistants are *by far to be pre-a ferred, but valuable help car' be given by skilled voluntary assis- tants. Prizes, awards, crests, etc., were nlayed, to death. The cost of these would be more beneficial in sup- plying new equipment which he suggested would be more appre- ciated than awards. In his concluding remarks the speaker outlined the many hob- for aduits and childTrer, and his enthusiasm createci a desire ir' his audience, for a similar centre of irgir'g and Mrs. Lar'gmaid con- Lucted a contest.

James raised the question of the legality of housing con- tract, signed only by the Mayor an'd Reeve and not having the clerk's signature. Coun. Mason, a iawyer, went into many fac- tors thus raised and suggested that a by-law might be necessary com'pletely ta validate ail inter- ests involved. He moved that the so-called contract be submitted ta town solicitor at once for advice and d.ecision. Carried. Property committee was auth- orized to remove an'd store alI town materiais now in the build- ing soldi to Mr. Berger. Debenture By-Law Reeve Baker introduced a by- law to authorize the issue of $190,000 debentures for sewer and disposai plant. This also touched off discussion on amounts of original contracts and any -ov- erpayments made as well as final estimates of cost. Extra Grant Coun. James read extracts from minutes showing a $9,000 grant on sewer contract awarded by 1946 council to Toronto Construc- tion Co. over and above original contract and that the job had beer' accepted& as complete. Reeve Baker explained that the pay- ment of $9,000 was made since the contractors had foundi unexpected rocIV wher' digging. Coun. Jones o'bserved that res- ponsible contractors always made boring before bididing to be ac- curate in submitting figures. Reeve Baker said, Toronto Con- struction Co. bad made borings but council had approved the $9,- 000 extra as a grant. New Contract It was furtber disclosed that 1946 council badi let a further con- tract ta Toronto Construction Co. in Septemiber at same $22,000 for sub-sewer work which has not been started as yet. Ail of which will corne out in the general re- turr' asked, for by Coun. James. In the protracted, discussion which lastedi tili neariy eleven o'- dlock, third' reading of the deben- ture by-lIaw appearedi to'be lost in the shuffle and if passed it es- caped the hearing of the reporter. It was later revealed, that the sale of debentures for $190,000 had beer' sold by last year's cour'- cil without the usua'i procedure of advertising for tenders.
