Mr. Knapp claimed that on February 27th, 1960, Councillor Fiee had a truck work for the town. His Worship Mayor Ivan Hobbs, asked Mr. Knapp what was his intention in presenting this charge. "Is it your wish to attempt to have Councillor Fiee unseated," he inquired, and Mr. Knapp answered "Yes". "This is a personal action," Mayor Hobbs stated, and he advised Mr. Knapp that if he wanted to try to take action he should see his own lawyer and the matter would go to the Supreme Court. "According to the Municipal Act council does flot sit in Judgement". the Mayor pointed out. Mr. Knapp said he did flot see why council could flot do so when a man is guilty.

Early Thursday morning of lest week, Laddy, tied up, minding his own business, appar- ently had an encounter with a porcupine and came off second best with his mouth and throat full of sharp quilîs. He was rushed to a vet for treatment, while Dog Controller Archie Hoskin came and took away the porcupine that offered absolutely no resistance. ANOTHER GIANT - Mrs. A. Sul, R.R. 5, reports that while in Garden Hill recently they were given a pumpkin weighing 75 lbs. It was grown on the property of Mr. and Mrs. W. Lewks and was the biggest they had, although quite a number of others were also much larger than usual. Let's see, now, how many deliciaus pies would 75 lbs. make, covered with whipped cream? T T tt GOLF WIND-UP - This Saturday evening, South- view Golf Club will hold an officiai closing banquet and dance, although if this weather holds, the course probably will be in operation on Christmas Day. Prizes, trophies, etc., will be awarded to the champs in the various categories. Inciden1ally, new attractive drapes now adorn the windows of the lounge and addîtional f urniture is being considered, using f unds obtained at draws this summer. Work has already commenced on the t4irling rink surface which should be in opera- tion within a week or so, depending on the weather. MORE PAINT- The Prower Djuilding, housing Lloyd Ellis Shoes and Murphy's Furniture, is re- ceiving a fresh coat of paint to brighten up the west end of town. Recently, at the easterly end of the business section, Severn's Bakery also received a face-lifting. t t t.i. t OUR SYMPATHY - The Statesman sends sym- pathy to confreres at The Lindsay Watchman- Warder where a f ire on Monday night did con- siderable damage. Apparently, it started in the newspaper plant and spread through the main business block of the town. Just three years ago, f ire caused $1,000,000 damage in the same block. AGREEMENT - Clarke citizens must feel a con- siderable sense of relief and security now that an agreement has been drawn up to provide them wîth f ire protection. The Orono brigade has taken on the task and wiII add to its forces as well as obtaining additional equipment. This agreement has been a long time coming, but will be welcomed by residents. DRY WEATHER - Speaking of fires, the long speil of rainless weather has made everything tinder dry. In recent weeks there has been a real flurry of leaf burning a11. over town, which we understand is against the law, but is going on any- way. Citizens in town and throughout the district are urged to have plenty of help on hand to con- trol any blaze they start.
