i | Vote Now I wish to make my ?oaition in this matter quite clear. in 1934 we were in the midst of a depresâ€" sion and the town was heavily inâ€" deébted, The. question was defeated by the ratepayers and quite froper- ly s0,. As a matter of fact 1 cast a ballot against remuneration at that time. In 1940 I was seconder of a resolution introduced by Reeve Scott, then Deputyâ€"Reeve Scott, which rescinded remuneration to Council. The stand I took at that time was that our municipalit, was Still in the hands of the receivers; drastic salary cuts had been made with regard to our munici%nel staff wnd teachers and had not been reâ€" stored and until such time as the financial position of the town imâ€" roved to a considerable extent and Kmumm and injustices with reâ€" f. to salaries had been corrected, for one was willing to offer my services to the town on a voluntary basis. The financial position of the town had improved to such an exâ€" tent that this year the Finance Committee _ unanimously _ recomâ€" ended to Council that they felt ao time was opportune to make some token of gesture to the men who have devoted so much of their Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentleâ€" men: You are naturally interested in the present financial position of our town. The hard work of the last few years is now bearing fruit; we can see quite a bit of daylight ahead and there is every encourageâ€" ment and hope for the future. Last December we drained our treasury of all available cash to retire anâ€" other $25,000.00 in outstanding deâ€" bentures in addition to the amount set out under our refunding plan. We did not call any debentures this year beyond our schedule because as you know there is a considerâ€" able expense involved in this proâ€" cedure and unless you have a conâ€" siderable amount to call it becomes too expensive. In other words the interest saved is offset to a conâ€" siderable extent. We are, however, in a position to make a further call and your Finance Committee is preâ€" pared to recommend to Council that early in the new year, we can usc‘ part of our surplus and reserve amount to call the balance of our extended maturities approximating $125,000.00 bearing interest of 4% per cent. We can pay approximately $40,000.00 in cash nns refinance the balance at approximately 3 perâ€" cent. This will save about $3,000.00 a year in interest charges.

Arthur Regâ€" inald Boyes, Mannin%fi Pool. The groom is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Frederick Boyes and recently reâ€" turned from overseas. Mrs. G. Proctor, sister of the bride, played the wedding music and Mrs. Ivy Murray sang "O Perfect Love". Given in marriage by her father, the bride wore a gown of white sheer over white embroidered tafâ€" feta, gathered at the neck and with bishop sleeves. Her net veil was handâ€"embroidered with silk and crested with orange blossoms and sheâ€" carried cream roses and white mums. _ Matron of _ honor, â€" Mrs. Harry Evans, and Miss Helen Philâ€" lips, bridesmaids wore street length dresses of pink and blue sheer. Miss Irene Proctor, niece of the bride, wore a floor length gown of white. taffeta with blue velvet bows decoâ€" rating the skirt, and a flower headâ€" dress. Senior attendants wore pink and blue veiled feather hats matchâ€" ing their frocks and carried pink, mauve _and . white mums. Mr. Harry Evans was best_man and the ushers were Charles Gaunt and Stan Luther. The reception was held later in St. John‘s parish hall. The bride‘s mother received . the guests in soldier blue with corsage of gold and bronze roses and mums. The groom‘s mother assisted in a mauve ensemble with pink roses. For going away the bride wore a rose rabbitâ€"wool dress, black hat with rose veil and a black opossum coat. The couple will reside in Toâ€" ronto.

[ Council as a whole has coâ€"operâ€" ated quite well in our various enâ€" deavours, but I wish particularly to thank the members of my Com mittee, May(&Allan, Councillors Rowntree and Simpson, for their splendid coâ€"operation and support during the past year. _ I wish to thank Mr. Lorne Coulâ€" ter and Mr. Walter Pollett for nominating me for the office of Reeve. 1 am pleased to accept this nomination and I wish to thank the electors of the town for my accla~ mation to that office. May I asâ€" sure you that I will continue, as in the past, to give every attention to the important duties of my office. Boyesâ€"Elliott We also made an adequate and wellâ€"earned provision for our volâ€" untary fire grigade, of which you will hear more from the chairman of that committee. We were able to collect all of this and at the same time keep our total levy down to the 43 mills of the previous year. Under new legislation which has been brought down, it is now posâ€" sible for a municipality to set aside a postâ€"war fund to take care of certain capital expenditures which every soundly run business organiâ€" zation makes provisions for. Your Council has considerable postâ€"war work in view, the first on the list being an improvement and addition to our Fresent sewage system and disposal plant, We _ accordingly levied a sum of $13,000.00 for this purpose. In addition to this we levied, at the request of the Board of Education, a sum of 2 mills for additions and extensions to our present ‘cools. These _ monies have beenÂ¥@@ceived by the Feasurâ€" er and < upon instructions from Council were able to invest this amount of $21,500.00 in the 7th Victory Loan, which yields 3 per cent instead of 1 per cent at the bank. I would point out that this money cannot be used for any purâ€" pose other than postâ€"war construcâ€" tion under the Act. ‘ time and effort to your affairs and accordingly an amount of $1,700.00 was included in our budget for that gurpose. to provide that $500.00 onourarium to the Mayor and a maximum of $150.00 to each memâ€" ber of Council. As a matter of fact it will not et“ual that amount, I wish to leave this one thought with you, that it was the considered opinion of the majority of Council that this step be taken. WEDDINGS Thank you K. L. THOMPS% _a| At the Chrysler Tank Arsenal, m _\ which is situated about as far out gt/of Detroit as Malton is from Toâ€" ||ronto, we saw the only factory in th|the world that is building tanks eq |on the production line method so cil |characteristic of the automotive days. Big General Shermans were popping off this line faster than *®\the Germans can possibly destroy :; them. From huge castings to enâ€" of gine mounting, it was an interestâ€" °h infi sight to see these monsters j |take shape and then roar out the ut door to the proving ground where ap| We all were allowed to look them s1 |over. White and bright inside, they on |abpeared to be quite battle wagons ad â€"their 75 mm. cannon, with its ly gyroscopic device that keeps it jz |on the traget, no matfer where the ye |treads dip, the antiâ€"aircraft canâ€" q |non protruding from the top and pp|the elaborate â€" antiâ€"fire devices â€"..\amazed us all. At Pontiac we were. condycted through the big torpego plant where the complexity off this inâ€" strument of warfare with\its 5,000 parts thrilled us. These agrial torâ€" pedoes are in three sectionsâ€"the forward one with its thick steel wall contains ~T.N.T., the middle section the power plant, and the rear compnrtgnent houses the gears that drive the two pr?ellersâ€"-one that runs clockwise and one countâ€" erâ€"clockwise, keeping the torpedo horizontal. These torpedos are proâ€" pelled by a steam turbine generatâ€" ing its heat from a huge spirit lamp that is flamed by a powder charge. They are dropped from a height of 150 to 200 feet, and are kept on their course by a gyroâ€" scope that is small enough to be held in the palm of the hand. They can travel for a distance of three miles at a speed of 40 knots per hour, and any portion of the torâ€" ‘pedo touching its prey will fire it. In this plant we saw many exâ€" amples of team play on the part of the big corporationsâ€"unbelievâ€" ably complicated gearâ€"cutting and other machines developéd by Amâ€" erican Can Company, Southern Carpet Company, and others, and loaned to General Motors, have greatly speeded production. Gears could be filed by a machine in six hours, an operation which formâ€" erly required two days‘ work of twenty men.. â€" The Oerlikon Cannon factory Aas also a very interesting place. This 20 mm.

They have their own hospital and research laboratories. Here we were shown a compression chamber that can do all that happens to a pilot physically _ and mentally up _ a height of 45,000 feet. We saw also how elaborately the preparation of. air crew for high altitude flights is carried out. Their diet is supâ€" pervised to eliminate or keep to a minimum, nitrogen â€" forming foods, and before a flight they are put through mechanical exercises for a halfâ€"hour designed to eliminâ€" ate any nitrogen in their bodies. Sinus and ear infection are also carefully checked. If one were to eat beans, for instance, and rise ‘in a plane to 45,000 feet, the abâ€" ‘dominal distension would tear his flying suit. We saw how and why they must use oxygen above 60,â€" 000 feet, how the candle goes out at 33,940 feet, and how at 60.000 feet, the boiling Point is so low that blood boils. Incidentally, 55,â€" 000 feet is the highest altitude ever attained in a plain, with presâ€" sure equipment. although in 1935, Anderson and Stevens got up to 75,000 feet in a pressure sealed gondola, _ _ â€" At the General Motors Truck plant we saw the famous amphibiâ€" ous jeepâ€"or duckâ€"in course of manufacture. Everydne was interâ€" ested in seeing it tested in a huge tank right in the factory. Ford Willow Run bomber plant, situated 20 miles out of Detroit, made us all gasp when we saw its ‘aize-â€"a building almost a mile long, and so extensive that we had to be conducted through it by motor trailer. This plant has upâ€" wards of 75,000 employees, and is turning out 450 Liberators a month â€"as well as stamping out parts on huge presses for more than this number, which are shipped to all parts of the United States for assembly, ‘of the war; it fires as fast as a machine ,\m, and fairly accurate to 15,000 feet. if enough of them mÂ¥hcodonulhipuhuhrd job for planes to approach close enough to bomb accurately. The w baby aircraft carriers have Kou cannon on them, and to date none has been sunk by bombing. Here nmr we saw how General Motors , by devising new maâ€" chines, turned out this gun at an unbeard of rate. Diamond cutting tools were much in evidence, beâ€" cause accuracy is so essential in this weapon. They had cut down the time taken to bore this gun from eight hours to six minutes. incidentally, the rifling was inâ€" spected by an instrument that looked much like the ordinary cysâ€" toscope. told, is really one of the sensations in snug fitting and popular pullâ€"on styles.
