KILLED BY FALLING STACK PROTON BARN BURNED THE DURHAM CHRONICLE WHO IS SHE? The Provincial Highway near Chatsworth is in a deplorable shape and may the Lord be with those who lime to travel this section during the fall and next spring. Roads and Bridges. I may say here that the cost of bridges this year, which come under the Road and Bridge Committee, or the Reeves of two adjacent Town- ships, has exceeded the amount es- timated. This has been caused partly on account of work undertaken last year, which had to be gone on with this year, and further, owing to a number of bridges being found in bad condition and had to be rebuilt. I might say further if all the bridges ,under the jurisdiction of this com- mittee are to he made safe for pre- sent traffic the estiinates for this work will have to be considerably increased next year. , Education. The education of our children is costing us more and more each year. but over this our County Council has no controt. For example. in 1910, the total 11x1'111111titur11 was 11111111 '1 $10000. In 1023 it \\ :1s 111111 $1 111,000 \111. 1a11a 1hil1t haw a hettei asset than 111:. 11111111 education?

County Property. Your special committee appointed at the June session to build an addi- tion to the North (trey Registry Of- tiee and install a separate heatinir system have 111‘1n111111te1l their work at $500 below the cost estimated. Yet there was no amount set, in the es~ timates to pay for this change and this too will have to be charged as a deficit and taken care'of in the pre- paring of the estimates of 1924. _ (Continued from page 4) ol’the work done and cost with the county‘s share and the county has to pay that amount. Thus you see the‘ county’s hands are tied, or might I‘ say held up. The Province simply deducts the amount owing by the county from the grants for roads an'd sends the county treasurer a cheque for the balance. I believe that the Provincial Legislature should be petitioned to pass legislation requir- ing the Department of Highways to send estimates to any eounty affect- ed of the money which will be re- quired for the next succeeding year and made to keep within their es- timates; otherwise every county through which a Provincial High- way passes may at the end of the year be faced with a deficit. The Suburban Area Commission have laid a stretch of concrete pave- ment on the Lake Shore Road in Sar- awak, of which they may be proud. The County Roads Committee have I believe served the county faithful- ly in getting the most value for the money spent. GREY COUNTY COUNCIL louse of Refuge. The improvements and changes at the House of Refuge have cost slightly over 8000. This will be largely taken care of by the grant for maintenance from the Province which will pay for this improvement during the next two or three years. These improvements were greatly needed and will greatly assist our} able manager and matron to take care of the county‘s interest at this institution. » With the closing of this session my duties as Warden will practically icease and I wish to congratulate the {members of this council for the per- feet unanimity which has prevailed during the year, and I again wish to thank the county officials and the members of this council for the as- sistance and courteous treatment ac- corded me at all times during my term of oil‘ice. _ â€" _ â€" v w v v v Basswood Heading Bolts Cedar Fence l’usts ('cdar C\‘ 'I‘amarck Tram; 'l‘ics Hardwood Track Tics For Prices and information apply to J.
