LOCATION OF OFFICES The dts're of the west to move the offices from Toronto to same point west of Winnipeg was a matter that gathered groups of easterners into animated discussion. That the far' west is feelinvits size and strength is quite evident, and that the men here feel that Toronto is too far away is equally petent, but Ontario would find a western church office further ci-‘stant, and they are prepared to say this at any time.

Wednesday, June 5 PRINTING COMMITTEE The Printing Committee met at 2. 00* with Reeve Richman presiding. Reeve Dotson wanted to hr ow why the cost of printing had gone up and Warden Steele said it was on- ac- count of the higher cost of producâ€" ti on, through increase of'labor cost. If there was a hold up they would get the work done outside the coun- ty, but it did not seem that way at all. comma SESSIONS OF COUNTY comm * BEJSINESS TRANSACTED WITH DESPAECH A large number were present, all of whom regretted the moving from among them of the genial and ener- getic gentleman, who, for the past fifteen years, had been so closely idea”â€" tified with the Church. C. E. Weeks, who is now a resilient of Lindsay, with a handsome little souv- enir of his connection with the school and church in the form of a beautiful writing desk, while Miss Amy Weeks was also givan a neat little present by the Junior League of the Church.

I FINANCE COMMITTEE 5 The committee on Finance and As- sessment met at 3.00 with Dr. Simms . in the chair. { - -~ .. The electric pump motor was burn- ed out through the power being shut ofi at the Falls on Sunday, which necessitated an expenditure of $37!.00. When the power is reduced or shut off and comes on gradually, the ef- lect is sometimes disastrous to a. loaded motor. The report of the auditors was read and found very complete and satisfactory, reflecting much credit upon the competent clerk and treas- urer, Mr. J. R. McNeillie. The report was adopted. Another radiator has been placed in Judge Harding’s noon: in the court house and one changed in the registry office. “ A brick floor in the court house has been replaced with cement which is much cleaner and more sanitary.

Electric Restorer for Men The 'council adjourned until 10 a. m. Friday. Reeve Robertson read the :epnrt of the Printing Committee, and Reeve Graham that of the County Property. A grant towards the repairing of Lancaster’s bridge between Victoria and Peterb-oro county is desired. Messrs. Dobson and Babcock made the preliminary move for a. grant from the county to Lindsay Sentral Fair. Mr. Michael said it would be_ bet- ter to maintain a. ward for incura- bles and supply a. doctor and a nurse. Mr. Graham was of the opinion that a per cent. should be fixed to be paid' by a municipality if such Mr. Devitt explained what he was up against. If he had known that he was going to die in a, week a nurse would have been hired at much less than $172. The funeral exâ€" penses were considered most exorb- itant as a similaricase cost but $1345. Im regard to an incurable from South Verulam, who had finances but" could not be admitted, he was sent up to a home for incurables and fin- ally died, leaving $172 to pay for funeral expenses.' 1‘; r.

The Collegiate costs $1800 more per year than in 1908 and the in- spection of schools $880. Even court’- ty council costs $700 more than it used to. Nearly $5000 in grants is ' given to vatious societies and pur- poses. It is estimated that $2000 will cover actual requirements of the roads and bridges of the county. The* total to be levied-for this year is es- timated at $38,391.41. Last year :39,- 842.86 was raised. The rate was 2?; mills last year and $16.00 will bc saved or 1le of a mill this year.

The new law in regard to hospitals isothat tubercular cases must be ad- mitted and cared for and claims up There is no denying the fact that our importance as an excursion and tourist centre has not been receiving the importance which it deserves. This is partly due to the fact that we have made no effort whatever to induce excursions to visit our town, and also because we have not had for some years a boat which catered directly to the excursion and tourist trade. every season of excursions passing through our town for other nearby centres. The Post had a conversation with a prominent Orillia gentleman some weeks ago, and this question was dis- cussed. That gentleman stated that Orillia had been quick to realize the: I ~u.. - ..........- r- Value of the excursion trade to that town.
