H OURHAM CHRflNIBlE THE CONSTABLB’S DISMISSAL The dismissal of the Town Con- stable by the Council it week ago was one of the matters dealt with at the Council Board on Monday even- ing. lax-Constable Harry Falconer‘ was at the meeting, and gave his: version of the affair. ' If what the ex-Constable told the Council Mon- day evening was true, and he cerâ€" tainly was very clear in his explaâ€" nations, an injustice has been done him that the Council should make an ett'ort to rectify. It is unfortunate, under the circumstances; that the ex..Cmistahle ignored the invitation to attend the meeting of a week ago. The all‘air has develolied, as it now stands, that both parties were right, and at the same time wrong. The Council had been informed that the Constable had laid all the way from thirty to forty informations against motorists for petty offences, and in the refusal of Mr. Falconer to at- tend the meeting, they took his acâ€" tion as an admission Of his guilt and dismissed him. Mr. Falconer, in his statement. to the Council Monday ev- ening. said he had laid only eight informations. and these after repeat- ed warnings to which no attention was paid. At the meetil g a week ago. Mayor Allan said he knew noth- ing about the affair; at last Monday night‘s meeting, Mr. Falconer said he had never laid an information \vitl‘mut first informing the Mayor. As the Mayor was out of town and not at the meeting to defend himself, Mr. Falconer said he would, with the permission of the Council. make the same statement at the next meeting of the Council at \xhich the 313} or was present. While the Council wants law and‘ order maintained, it is not anxious to have a constable on the job who is going to make his otficial position .a hardship to those in and around town, who may inadvertently break some of the. many traffic laws of the town and province. Had ex-Constable Falconer appearâ€" ed in person at the Council meeting last week which culminated in his dismissal, and made the statement then that he made last. Monday night, we believe the Council would not have taken the drastic action they did in the matter. We hold no brief for Mr. Falconer or the Town Council, and in report- ing what. actually took place at the Council meeting a week ago Friday we have no excuses to offer. Possi- bly the Council was a little hasty in dismissing Mr. Falconer, but at the same time, Mr. Falconer was given the opportunity of appearing heft-ire that body and refused to do so. Just now it looks as though both parties were under a misunderstand- ing that could have been cleared up had either one. or both, taken the opportunity of getting tt‘igether and talking the matter over from the dif- ferent. angles. MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS Most people have a big contract on hand if they attend strictly to this little bit of advice. Some are always ready to tell others what to do and what not to do. Advice is the most common ct‘immorlity. and in too many cases it. isn‘t. any more common than useless. Just. Open your eyes and ears and look around for a fen" days. There s a man \onder tligzing ‘ a common post- hole. He is an ex- perienced man at. the work. He makes his living at the work. Ten to one there are half a dozen inex- perienced observers watching the man; ten to one. 3., 0am, not one of them e1 e1 dug a post- hole in his life, yet we‘ll state another ten to one that one or more of the onlookers will tell of a better \\ ay to dig post- holes. We have no objection to a person giving advice, providing the advice is sound and sane. and the tested reâ€" sult,- of experience. Otherwise, a person had better mind his ovvn business. There are too many wasting their time and energies in advising others instead of attending to their ovvn affairs.
