A. Reid opened the meet- ing by reading the official notice of the meeting and called on Mr. C-hase of the Hydro Commission to give the estimates of the cost of installing street lighting in the village of New- tonvillle which was practically the same as submitted at the special meeting held earlier. The secretary read the petition, al- so the names of those -who signed. Mr. Chisholm, of Port Hope, appear- ing for those against the petition, read a list of those who wished to have their names withdrawn from the petition. Mrs. Willis Jones ad- dressed the meeting asking for in- formation regarding the cost of in staTlation and upkeep of same. Mr. C. M. Jones spoke of the feel- ing existing between the two factions as the vote was near a tie and s-ai-d in order to settle all differences he would withdraw his signature and advised that the matter drop. Mr. Britton asked Mr. Chisholm to state definitely whether it was true that the Province would assume 50 per cent, of the cost. Mr. Chisholm confirmed the statement by reading from the statutes. sion of the act which was m direct opposition to the view of Mr. Chis- holm. Mr, Frank Law moved to have the township clerk make investigations and find out if it i-s true that the province will pay 50 per cent, of the cost of street lighting in the vil- lage of Newtonvile. Quite a see- saw took place with honors about even. Owing to the feeling prevail- ing at the present time Reeve T. A. Reid thought it unwise to pass the by-law. Councillor Laing thought it wise to let the matter stand until it became more settled. He gave the ladies great, praise for the work they did and felt very sorry for the atti- tude taken. Mr. Chase spoke briefly advising all- to withdraw or all come together and- join, with the petition. 'The meeting then adjourned. gardin-g Leskard wanting to co-me back in the circuit.

A tasty lunch of sandwiches, cake and tea and1 a half hour of social chat followed. ships. It was not as respectable then to be a scientist as it is now. J.eewenhoek was the -first to grind lenses and s-ee bacteria while Pas- teur, by his development of immuni- zation methods, was responsible for making man relatively safe from rabies and other bacterial diseases, Koch, Roux, Thuillier and others of the same period were also helpful in alleviating much future misery for both man and beast. Perhaps the best and most humani- tarian of all-1, were the experiments on malaria, sleeping sickness and yel- low fever, where men were the “-guinea pigs.” -Stxme even voluntar- ily gave their lives that others might learn bo-w to control disease. “Great- er love hath no man than this, that a m-an lay down his.life for his friends.” Games were played for the remain- der of the evening.
