Bradley of Latchford, last Saturday morn- ing. The late Mr. Bradley was em- ployed by the Opeonga Lumber Company at Beapuchene, Que. near Kipawa, and with a young- er man as passenger, was driv- ing home for the week-end, at which time he was going to cele- brate his 37th birthday. About 4 o'clock, when he was within an hour of arriving home, just south of Temagami, the car apparently went out of control left the road and plunged downa steep embankment. His passen- ger was thrown clear and escap- ed with minor injuries, and Ger- ald was also apparently thrown out, only to hit a rock and die in- stantly from a fractured skull. The body was taken to North Bay and later to the Buttam Fu- neral home at Cobalt, and Mon- day it was taken to the family home in Latchford, where it lay with the casket draped in the Union Jack until the funeral ser- vice on Tuesday. Gerald was born in Latchford. He was educated there and at the Haileybury Mining School. In 1940, he enlisted with the Cana~ dian Forestry Corps and went overseas with No, 11 Company of that unit, commanded by Major W. A. H. Ferguson of Haileybury, serving in Scotland until he gota transfer to Ordnance and in 1945 again transferred, this time to infantry and served in Holland until he came home in 1945. After returning he worked for various lumbering and construc- tion companies, spent a year at Yellowknife and finally with the company near Kipawa. He was sports minded, taking part in baseball, fastball and hoc- *ey with Latchford teams for some years, Gerald was a member of Silver Lodge,A. F. & A.M., Cobalt. and is survived by his father and his mother and two brothers, Reid and Stanley, in Latchford. The funeral was held under joint Masonic and Canadion Le- gion auspices at the Latchford United Church on Tuesday after- noon, with Rev. George Brown officiating. The pallbearers were Arthur Burns, Max Sullivan and Ralph Lafleur of Latchford, Don Nicolson of MHaileybury, Geoff Dixon of Cobalt and P. Whelan of New Liskeard. Interment was made in Mount Pleasant Ceme- tery, Haileybury.. Mr. and Mrs. Phil Wainman former residents of Haileybury were in town this week for a short visit with old friends.

[wo new vertical pumps, equip- ped with automatic contrels and ot a capacity sufficient to take care of the town's needs tor many years to come, will replace the present pair, which have been in operation since the system was installed around the year 1912. They have shown the effects of use and have required repairs on different occasions, especially fol- lowing the fire of October 4th, 1922, when the pumphouse, locat- ed on the shore of Lake Temiska- ming, was burned down. Oddly enough, the filtration plant, which stands on higher ground adjacent to the pumphouse, was not seri- ously damaged by the fire which destroyed about three-quarters of the town, The new pumps will cost ap- proximately $9,000, according to an estimate by the Sutcliffe Com- pany of New Liskeard, which handles the town's engineering problems. Councillor John W Lecky, chairman of the water- works committee, has been study- ing the project with the engin- eering firm for some time past. The council decided to go a- head with the installation of the new plant,if the approval of the Department of Municipal Affairs is forthcoming. The money will come from the Town's fund for capital expenditure, set up some years ago, Other business at the Monday session was light. The Rotary Club asked if the town could pro- vide half a dozen cement benches for the park and beach, some- thing similar to those near the Cenotaph in the Main street park. The council thought it could be done by town workmen as oppor- tunity. arose. Provincial constable Barry told the council that larger signs marking the 30-mile speed limit on the main highway at each entrance to the municipality might help to reduce speeding. No action was taken immediately. Final item on the agenda was an estimate of $287 for painting the interior of the public library. which was turned down, as the expenditure had not been provid- ed for in the budget.

Mem- No Structural Changes This Year in Local Schools One Dissenting Trustee Holds up Proposals of Balance of School Board As published in these columns two months ago, both the High and Public School Boards con- templated improvements to the public school building for the permanent occupancy of both schools in the one building. It had been hoped that part of the program could have been com- pleted before school re-opens in September, but all structural changes have been deferred until 1952. New equipment has been ordered for the high school Lab- oratory and is being installed dur- ing the holiday while the public school] board is re-decorating the basement areas. Both Boards had _ discussed plans for a better school for the pupils but, rather than borrow money this year, have agreed to make recommendations along these lines to the incoming Board of Education which will have the authority over both schools. At present a majority of the high school board have adopted the proposed consolidation of both schools, with one Trustee neutral and one dissenting. The public school board were unani- mous in agreement and the separ- ate school board, while only indi- rectly interested, has not made any objections. The dissenting Trustee is definitely opposed to the proposals and has refused to recognize the right of the-major- ity of the board to carry out its adopted policy, although the De- partments of Municipal Affairs and Education have concurred. Rather than start work now which could not be completed if the dissenting Trustee wishes to embarras that boards by adopt- ing a policy of obstruction, the program has been deferred. It has been suggested that the question should be submitted to the ratepayers at the next Muni- cipal Election when all facts as to costs of operation, building etc., would be presented. In the meantime, the pupils who would be the beneficiaries of the pro- posed improvements, will have to continue to make the best of what can be provided to meet the situ- ation. bers of the Canadian Legion, who have already contributed volun- teer labor, are also going to build a handy fireplace.
