Motoring magnates of the city council had a regular love feast when they discussed the technicali- dies of the road and incidentally passed with few Alterations a traffic by-law submitted by the Kingston Motor Club. Those whose inelina- tions or pocket books did not favor the ownership of an automobile sank back for nearly an hour "in their leather-upholstered chairs, crossed their legs and smoked very serenely the Tuckett's Preferred Which His Worship had thoughtfully provided. But not so for the motorists, as- piring or experienced. As If they were bent on winning a race, Alds. Peters, Litton, Graham and other notables leaned forward, laid aside the distractions of the aforesaid cigars and discussed with great vivaeity the new traffic rules, The by-law was allowed to stand as presented, except for the follow- ing revisions: . It" will not be necessary to throw out the right arm when.a turn is being made. The distance which stand from street corners drants was increased from to twenty-five feet. 7 At the suggestion of Chief Arm- strong, parking area is allowed on the north side of Brock street from Sydenham to- Bagot sireets for un- Hmited time. The other area changes were to permit parking om west side of Montreal from Princess to Brock for an unlimited time and on the west side from Princess to Queen streets only from 7 p.m. to 12 p.m. Private owners have the right to reserve parking area should they so desire, « The clause dealing with turning right about at street corners wi eliminated. 3 Ald. Chown introduced a clause that street cars shall stop in paved areas before crossing the street in- tersection with the front platform in line with the nearest foot cross- Ing of tha intersecting street. This means that on paved streets street cars will stop at what 1s known as the first crossing instead of the se- cond crossing as now. The street railway will also probably de re- quested to paint signs on their poles, "Cars stop here." -Other by-laws 'passed included a by-law to raise $20,000 by the issue of debentures for the purchase of an electric pump; a by-law to raise $77,000 for 'the purchase of gas purifiers, - exhauster, holder and mains and a by-law for $7,000 for street lighting. A petition for a drain on Mont- real street was referred to the Board of Works, and a request from Mr. and Mrs. Byron Derbyshire and their daughter, - Florencs Derby- shire, for exemption from income tax was referred to the finance com- mittee for hearing.

There. was no opposition to the proposal of Ald. Graham that the Salvation Army band Provide eight band concerts to begin in the month of June and that the sum of $400 be appropriated for the purpose. The mayor thought that the . R{C.H.A. should provide some of the concerts but Ald, Graham believed the faith- fulness of the Salvationists in meet- ing all troop trains should be re membered and 'his motion was ear- ried. Ald. Jones wanted a concert in Frontenac Park but his amend- ment was squelched. ------d Tenders for Paving, Ald. Graham reviewed the projegt- ed paving work of the Board of Works and stated that it would not be possible for the civic plant Lo do all the work. Aid. Peters suggested two day shifts owing to the length of the days but Ald. Graham pointed out that there was some difficulvy in securing gravel. Accordingly it was. decided that tenders would be called for the paving of Princess street from Division to Alfrea Streets, Barrie from Princess to Ord- nance, West street from Welllugton to King streets, King street trom William to Barrie streets, and Stuart Street from. Barrie to Albert. This will be asphalt pavement on con~ crete foundation. Mediation Committee Appointed. On. motion of Ald, Simmons committee comprising Mayor ~New- man, W. F. Nickle, M.P., and J.
