There is no 11 question that there is method in tak- ing the census, for there is no one §\ lt'oolish enough to believe that it is taken just for the fun of the thing. What the reason is, however, is un- known to The Chronicle, nor have b we made inquiries. \Ve merely surmise that it 1s a method of ob- taining first-hand information as to the Volume of trall'ic in certain dist- u. ricts. and, of course, districts having 1' a large volume of tratl'ic will receive 1 more attention than others where l tratl'ic is not. so heavy. . f Commencing Wednesday morning I _ of last week at (5 o‘clock, the census 1 was started on the Guelph-Owen : Sound Highway. and in Durham the [1 cénsus takers were Messrs.

' Following the reading of the ‘ minutes, Mr. J. J.

Mr. Smith said ' there was no use dwelling on the L need of waterworks or similar questions. They were not the issue. v While we might disagree on the e matter 0f Waterworks, paved streets, or other municipal improvements, it was a serious matter when the roof 7, over our beads was in danger.
