That there is great need for some tree trimming in various parts of the city and that thé foilage on trees in many sections is a great drawback to the lights now in use, was the opinion expressed ai a meet- Ing of the civie fire and light com- mittee held on Tuesday afiernoon, while the question of more street lights was, under discussion. The committee is not at all anx- jous to saddle the city with = any extra expense this year, for street lights, but it is agreed that there are a few places where it is absolute- ly necessary to give some attention. However, no action was taken, pending another report which will be submitted at the next meeting. On motion of Ald. William Hold- er, it was decided to have the light on Alma street, between Balaclava and Ordnance streets, increased from a 100-candle power to a 600- candle power. The utilities com- mission will be asked to make this change. Lg Ald. O'Connor stated that Dufferin street was in need of more light. The trees needed trimming to give the lights a chance. Chief Armstrong remarked that there was need of tree trimming all over the eity. Chairman Chown suggested that the committee not go in for any ex- tra expense for lighting this year. Ald. O'Connor said that he would favor expending the sum of $1,000 on new lights if it was necessary Accidents might occur as a result of the darkness, and he felt that if the citizens wanted the lights they should be provided. A request for an. increase in sal- ary was received from Hugb Pollle, motor mechanic on the fire depart- ment. Mr. Pollle has the care of the motor apparatus and also the training of the drivers. He has been receiving $3.275 per day and ft was decided to increase his sal- ary to $8.60 per day. Chief Arm- strong recommended this increase. The chairman, Ald, Chown, pre- sided at the meeting and the other members present were Mayor An- grove, Ald. O'Connor and Ald. Wil- liam Holder. : AN INCREASE IN MISSION At a Meeting of the Executive of the Synod of Ontario.
