A committee will no doubt be appointed to pursue this problem further and report to the council for action. Municipal Building Some misapprehension may exist in the minds of some of the rateâ€" payers as to the municipal building which we desire erectes. It is not intended that this will be an elaborâ€" ate or expensive building, but an extension of the present hydro premises which will be large enough to serve the convenience of the officials and ratepayers during the succeeding years and will be one that will be useful even in the event of our joining the City. Its proximity to the greater body of ratepayers will tend, we believe, to a greater and more intiâ€" mate relationship between them and the Council, Erection of an Incinerator Girls, It‘s Leap Year Reeve Deals With During the %ast year considerâ€" able progress has been made toâ€" wards the erection of an incinerâ€" ator, but it has been found imposâ€" sible to proceed with the worfioin a manner and at a cost which would be in the best interests of the ratepayers. You will no doubt coâ€"operate in seeing that tend‘ers are obtained: by the township engineer and that a very considerâ€" able advance will be made during this year in carrying out this necesâ€" sary project. Enlarge Sewage Disposal Plant and Trunk Sewers We are not unaware of the necesâ€" sity for enlarging the sewage disâ€" posal plant, enlarging | certain trunk sewers and providing for the adaitional sewage which the growth in the Township has creatâ€" ed, and as soon as financial and labour conditions are improved, I have no doubt that this matter will be undertaken at once. _ We are also aware that the water service is not satisfactory, and no doubt you will as soon as possible take steps to provide larger trunk maing. Recreation Centres and Improved Parks . During the past year the Council has taken more directly under its control, recreation centres, and we believe that this department of the township‘s activities has with the assistance of the Advisory Recreaâ€" tion Committee made considerable progress in working out a plan of recreation centres which would be within the reach of all, and they will continue in their endeavour to provide for the youth of the muniâ€" cipality the opportunity to engage in uud‘; sports and recreations as will assist in their physical develâ€" opment. I feel 1 should express on your behalf and my own our apâ€" preciation _ to those who have gratuitously assisted in this imâ€" portant work. Whilst in the J)ast our parks have not received the attention they should have had in order to provide the people with a maximum amount of opportunity for their use, no doubt &e council will give this matter their very earnest atâ€" tention and see that proper leader» ship is given by their appointee who with the assistance of the Planning Board and Recreation Board will take steps to improve conditions in time for greater adâ€" vantage to be taken in theie parks in the Eresent and future years. Street Lighting . 2s We realize as you do the very great nccessity of improved lightâ€" ing. In making any improvement we have to realize the great shortâ€" age of electric energy at the presâ€" ent time, but as far as it is possible to use the additional energy withâ€" out injury to other industry, Review of Assessments The great shortage of houses during the past year has resulted in a more or less chaotic condition as regards values, more especially of houses, and the present time may not be the best time to make a reâ€"assessment, but wherever obâ€" vious inequalities of assessment exist, the assessors will be inâ€" structed to rectify these in a way that will be reasonable having reâ€" gard to other assessments. In the not distant future, a complete reâ€" assessment must be made, but we have no doubt that you, as repreâ€" sentatives of the people, will feel that the present moment is not the time. Voters‘ Lists P A very considerable amount of dissatisfaction was expressed b voters whose names were léft ofyf the voters‘ lists. In the shifting of pop'lllllfion which h;n occumsh to such a great extent during the t few years in the Township of York, it is inevitable that many voters will be off the list where they forâ€" merly resided and have not been put on the list at their new adâ€" English Vicar Charges Femmes Are Taking Unfair Advantage By Using Aids To Nature zine, says, "By act of iament in 1790 all women of wh:t‘:vha age, profession . or d.:m, whether virgin, maid, or widow, that shall matriniony any of his Majesty‘s lubjoc?: by means of scents, paints, cosmetics, swashes, artificial teeth, false . hair, Spanish | wool, . iron stays, hoops, fh-heeled shoes or holster hips, shall incur the penalty of the laws now in force against witchcraft, and the marriage stands null and void." impose upon, seduce or betray into Most Lakeshore women will conâ€" sider the vicar‘s views a little out of date. The marriage rate would sink rapidly if women did not help nature along. The glamour girls of this dady and age would fast beâ€" come ‘sad sacks‘ without benutz aids and touches of "witchcraft. If the vicar‘s wish came true the whole female population would be imprisoned for such a. capital sin as the use of cosmetics. â€" The vicar added, "We very much hope the act is still in force." As yet no one has "imposed upon, seduced or betrayed" Mr. Bxshor into matrimony. He is a bachelor. dress because of the fact that all assessments cannot be made simulâ€" taneously. _ Possibly the Council should make some move towards notifying voters who move from one s]nce to another that they should notify the assessor, and we would strongly recommend to the council that a notification should be sent to every voter before Elecâ€" tion Day wlunfhthem where they should vote. is would prevent the voters‘ going to the polis and being told they have no vote. Population and Capital Debts m Undoubtedly, the population of the Township has increased to a considerably extent during the past year, and you will recall that the capital debt of the Township has been reduced, and ‘also by a refunding operation which took place at the first part of last year the interest rates were reduced to such an extent that the Township will benefit to an extent of $700,â€" 000.00 during the present year and to a proportionate amount each succec(fing year until the debenâ€" tures are finally redeemed. Annexation During the past year several meetings have been held with the representatives of the City of Toâ€" ronto in regard to co-ogerating in the oremtion of certain utilities and also on the larger question of annexation to the City, You will no doubt make arrangements durâ€" ing the present year for the conâ€" tinuation of these conferences to the end that some means, either by a borough system of government or otherwise, wil‘ be found which will help in solving the Township‘s problems in the operation of public utilities to benefit the people of the Township,. In all these conâ€" %rences and negotiations you will Undoubtedly keep in mind the best During the past few years many complaint have been made by rateâ€" payers as to the services rendered by the Township. You will not be unaware of the fact that much modern equipment which would be useful to our employees are now being placed on the market, and I would suggest that we explore the possibilities of obtaining _ such equipment which will assist in snow _ removal, cleaning catch basins and installing sewer serâ€" vices, The names of our streets should also be more readily visible to motorists and pedestrians. Living Costs â€" 1 _ interests of the ratepayers Township Services â€" Whilst the municipal councils have very litle power over the factors that go to fix living costs, we are certain that the Council will do everything in its power by representations to the proper auâ€" thorities and in every other way possible to reduce the living costs to a figure in line with wages and to prevent the exploitation of prices by those who have purchasâ€" ed the necessities of life at a low cost, and because the changes in our trade policy are increasing the prices of the same to an unreasonâ€" able extent. More especially, we will work towards the lifting of all bans on the manufacture and imâ€" port of margarine in order to allow those in the lower income brackets to benefit by a cheap substitute for butter, Taxation ‘ We are confident that with the increased â€" assessment â€" on _ new homes and industries and the maturing of certain debentures for local improvements and_ schools, with the coâ€"operation of the Heads of Departments and the Township employees, the improvements we have mentioned may be carried out without any increase in taxation.

It is possible that the indifierence displayed by many voters is beâ€" cause of the fact that municipal elections are held yearly and that their frequent recurrence fails to arouse the interest in the election which a less frequent election might do. . 2 _ _ Well at last the Recreation Rink has had its first flooding, perhaeps has had its first flooding, perhaps it will soon be ready for use. _ __ Mr. and Mrs. E.

I would suggest that the Council give serious consideration to the question of submitting a question to the ratepayers at the next elecâ€" tion as to whether or not a biâ€" annual instead of an annual elecâ€" tion would arouse greater interest in the electors. _A considerable body of the public believe that those who aspire to office in the Municipal Council should not be put to the expense and inconveniâ€" ence of yearly elections, _ _ I am sure the members of council will join with me in exâ€" pressing our sincere appreciation for the splendid work being done by the York Township Library Board.

Rural communities are served by officers who cover extensive terâ€" ritories visiting families as far apart as twp and three hundred miles. One such officer whose cirâ€" cuit runs north of Cochrane finds it takes him four weeks to cover his ground, a total distance of 800 miles, visiting the people in their homes, the coal mines, the lumber mills (see cut), and the scores of village communities, conducting services as he goes. Another example of the outâ€" standing work of the Church Army may be found in the City Police Courts. Here are located welfare officers whose specific task is to advise and help in matters where they can be of assistance to detainees. From time to time visits are made to the jails and to the various institutes of penal reform, with the purpose of administering spiritual council and material asâ€" sistance to the inmates, all of whom they regard as being potential useâ€" ful citizens, and to this end they spare no effort. Maple Resident Buried Saturday Funeral services were held last week for Mrst Cecila Richards, 90, widow of the late Thomas Richards. She resided in Maple for the past eight years with her niece, Mrs. S. W. Armitage. On their release, determined Church Army officers explore every possibility in locating emâ€" ployment and accommodation for these reâ€"born citizens. The official report of the work of the last year shows progress in all fields of operations. An example of the eriminal work shows that 55% of the total number of cases handled have already been gassed through the machinery of rehabiliâ€" tation in entirety, and a further percentage who have reached cerâ€" tain stages in the comprehensive program. Impressive figures in further detail are given in the reâ€" port which will be made known in due course. Always ready for the unexpected, the Church Army has also been of help to recent illegal immigrants into . Canada. One (fS“Ch person having been subjected to a thirtyâ€" three day imprisonment found acâ€" comtmodation and steady employâ€" ment through the assistance of the organization after his release. It is in this spirit that the Church Army‘s campaign to insure a continued development will meet with everâ€"increasing popular supâ€" port and go forward in its aim of extending efficient and responsible welfare service to every city, large and small, in the Dominion, which is the ultimate aim of the Church Army in Canada as expressed by Born near Cobourg, she moved with relatives to southern Manitoba before the â€" first â€" railway â€" had entered the district.
