On Monday night Rev. Mr. Shearer, field secretary of the Dominion body and general secxetary of the provincial alliance, made an address at the annual meeting of this branch, in the Cambridge-st.

No answer had been received al- though the request was sent nearly a year ago. Mr. Mch‘ar.ane thought such neglect very discourteous on Mr. 'l‘ifijn’s part.

Council adjourned. Sinâ€"Last Thursday, with others frorn' Lindsay, I joined Father Maguire’s excur- sion to the Muskoka lakes. The railway ride was quick and not tiresome. The waters and the weather were everything ideal. It was a well-conducted, enjoyable and successful affair. The new ooat, the Nipissing, just placed on the route by the Navigation company, is clean and speedy, and handled by jolly Captain Henry, who is a safe man at the helm. The spacious dining hall was the pink of perfection in which was served an excellent dinner on well appointed tables,thh clean laundered linen, and attentiVe waiters in spotless, natty costumes discharged their duty well. A1_l (or twenty-five cents! To the Editor of the Watchman-Wade: : I do not wish to discount the beauties o£ that lake region, for everybody islavish in its praise. That it is appreciated asa resort is largely in evidence by the numerâ€" ous cottages everywhere nestling in the young woody groves covering the shores and the rocky islands. The captain said their fleet of boats found it difficult to handle the many thousand tourists and cottagers who flock there after the J ulv season opens. All parts of the United States, especially the hotter portions, look upon this region as the mecca of their aspirations, and well they may, for it is a beautiful and charming place in which to spend the sultry summer day s_. _ Ald. J ackson-The resnonsibility is not: on us. The bridge people must take steps to cope with the difficulty for we are with- in _o_ur rights. WHERE THE PUBLIC GIVES ITS OPINION Capt. Crandellâ€"I saw the bridge thrown. ofl‘_t_h_e grugks by 211%: gravel. 7_ THE SWING BRIDGE The chairman of the board of works read a letter from Solicitor Hopkins re the complaint of the bridge swinger because gravel from the iron bridge interferes with the swing. The solicitor held that the town had a right to construct the roadway right to the swing and unless negligence is shown there could be no liability. The caretaker of the bridge must see that the structure is clear hcfore he swings it. This being my first visit to this region of rest and peaceful pleasure, I tried to dis- cover why the Muskoka region was so largely absorbing the vast amount of American capital and had become the summer home and delight: of our cousins beyond the lakes. Of course, I saw that; nature has done a great deal for this region, but I was then, and am now at a. loss to decide wherein she has been more lavish in her wealth of beauty or sanitary conditions than in our own lovely Kawar- tha lake region, just at our own door. I can concede but Iew and minor points of advantage. Perhaps the waters are some- what deeper and the region a little more elevated. There are more islands takingr the waters as a whole, but I am not prev l pared to grant that such a condition is an unmixed advantage. Anyone who prefers such scenery can find all its picturesque- ncss without discount, in Stoney Lake. Nevertheless, wealthenterprise, push and mayor was directed to call one for Friday night. boom, have made Muskoka emeedinzly popular throughout this continent. The same influences can make szartha a. sharp competitor, if not to outrival Muskoka. Equal or superior railway and. steamboat service and hotel accommoda- tion are essential elements in the race: _ I do not now purpose to re fer to all the many advantages which our waters bV nature possess, but simply to state my present impression that we have in these waters what, when developed, and pro- perly handled, will make a summer resort that will be preferred to Muskoka, not only by people of our own cities, but by many of the foreign tourists. I had not the privilege of visiting the far-famed and much-advertised sani- tarium, but from the boat I hadagood view of the location of the neat looking structure facing the south and near the ‘ water, enclosed by sheltering trees on all sides but the south. I do not wish to say a word to disparage the laudable efforts now being put forth to lessen the ravages of consumption and other tubercular dis- eases, yet I must admit that I fail to com- prehend the wisdom of locating the build- ing in such proximity to the watery region. Neither can I see but very little, if any, of the boasted advantages of the Muskoka region on the whole, as a cure resort for consumption. I looked in vain for the abundance of pines and balsams whose charmed exhaltations have been so much vaunted as a remedy in this dread disease. No doubt but many persons “run down” in health, with fretted nerves and impair- ed digestion from overwork, fatigue and worry, will find themselves benefited by spending sufficient time and money in this lovely retreat ‘ree from the corroding effects of the Various causes of their ex-v hausting ailments, for in addition to the toning efi‘ects, mentally and physically, of ; nature’s garden of delight, I am told they . feed their patients well at the sanitarinm. -vv -_ vâ€" __ We are told that consumption is con- tagious, but I suppose at this sanitarium they cage up the germs of the disease and destroy them so they will not contaminate all the region round about in time. I do not think it desirable to have a. sanitarium. for consumptives on our Kawartha lakes if for no other reason than the prejudice that exists in the pubjjg mind; Yours. To the Editor of Watchman-Wander : Simâ€"By reports in town papers of Last week the council of the Board of Trade thought it wise to take up the question oi road-making and throw a little dirt at the street foreman on drainage. I wish the Board of Trade and all other ratepayers to understand that I am simply an employee of the town council for the time being. to do the work as I am told to do it, as near ‘ as I can. Beyond a hole in the road or a. broken plank my authority ceases. The word “commissioner” attached to my occupation seems to impress some people that it is very authoritative, but such is not the case. The town council is elected to transact the business of the town for the time being. and 1am employed as foreâ€" man with the men employed to do the work by the town council. When I assume to do any town work upon my own responsibilitv and don‘t do it right, it will: then be time enough to sling dirt at me. Yours. P. G. PILKIE.
