VOL. IX DRYDEN, Ontario, September 6th, 1929 Council Meets THE regular monthly meeting of the Town Council held Tuesday evening in the Council Chamber, wag indeed brief and a very small amount of business was on the table. Mayor Dr P H B Wood presided and Councillors Bailey, Pronger, Wright, Wilson, Pater- son and Proudfoot were all pres- ent. Accounts amounting to $2,954.- OI were passed for payment oa the motion of Pronger and Wik son. On behalf of the Dryden Digt- rict Agricultural Society, Mr A Pitt was present to ask for a grant of $200.00 for the As- sociation. Councillors Pronger asd Bailey made a motion to the effect that the Society be granted the sum of $200.00 and the same 'was carried. The question of Poll Tax brought out quite a lengthy dis- cussion. The advisibality of levy- ing the $5.00 poll tax on all ten- ants in the Municipality was d s- cussed. Some of the Councillors were in favor of this method and! Mr : building the office now occupies it was pointed out that in a test New Postmaster Assumes Duties Monday, September first saw the transfer of the local Post Office from the management of Mrs Aldra Smith Handley 0 Mr J. E. Harris, of Dryden The Post Office has been most efficiently and capably managed by the Smith family for over thirty years, Mrs Handley, who assumed office about seven years ago being the last member of her family to act in this capactiy. The appointment of Mr Harris to this important position, after Mrs Handley's resignation had been accepted, meets with much approval in every quarter. The newly appointed Post- master, Jack Harris, is the popu- lar member of the firm of the Dryden Lumber Company. He has lived in Dryden practically @ll his life, and has one of ghe best war records of any returned man in the District. He enlisted in 1014, and served continuously till the signing of the Armistice. Mr Harris has 'bought the . fri 2 yg oh case in 1918, the late Judge Chap-; ftom the vacating, Postmistress. pel had made a ruling to the ef-| and workmen are now busily en- fect that a tenant was liable to this tax. The town of Keewatin is levying a Poll Tax on all ten- ants this year, but after viewing the matter from all angles, the Dryden Council deemed it advis- able to collect the poll tax in the usual way, as in former years, from those who do not own or ' gaged in enlarging the space oc- cupied byithe Post Office. Tt will be enlarged considerably and another section of hoxes for rental added. BIRTHS DURANCE--ALt Dryden Red Cross Hospital, on Thursday School Opens After the two months' vacation in which such ideal weather has prevailed, the kids were forced to discard whoopee overalls, bath ing suits and all other play at- tire and get all "slicked" up for school opening Tuesday morning. They didn't look down-hearted as they marched to school and it wag an excited, happy crowd of boys and girls that thronged the Stationery Stores for supplies to begin the new term with. Too many tots enrolled for the primary class and those under six were not admitted. All the classes are arranged and settled now and the fall term is away to a good start with every class-room of the Albert Street School full and some crowded. The Continuation school has an extra large number of stud- ents enrolled also. . GARDEN PARTY AT HOLY TRINITY CHURCH The Garden Party in aid of! Holy Trinity Church, Minnitak', which was held last Friday after- noon was a splendid success and over forty dollars was realized, There was an excellent 'urn- out and the sports were keenly enjoyed. Prize-winners were as follows --- Horseshoe Throwing Contest, open--1st T. Lewis and R. Lati- mer; zud, H Pateman 'and J Enjoying Very Fine Music Patrons of the Strand are now enjoying very fine music, which is being reproduced on the new Orchestraphone, an 'electric mach ine just purchased by the manag- er M. Bailey, This type of machine which is now being us- ed by all the up-to-date theatres in the West is an electricl affair which combines the main feat- ures of the radio and grama- phone. That is it reproduces records as a gramaphone, but amphlied to a loud speaker whch makes a selection sound as real as if one were listenisg to real orchestra or organ itself. The volume and tone aresamazing. Two turntables do away with de- lay while changing selections & the whole effect is excellent, Pipe Organ selections are heard to wonderful advantage on this machine & these & selectios by world-famous masters and orch- estras make indeed pleasing ac- companiment to the pictures. 7, tile || ANNUAL MEETING I = : The Annual Meeting of Kenora District Co-opera- tive Clover Seed Growers Association, will be held in the Community Hall, on Saturday, September ll 14th, at 8:30 o'clock p.m | RORIET.
