The funeral took place on Saturday to Durham cemetery and as triends and neighbors viewed the unus- ual sight of mother and child in one cas- ket. in an attitude both loving and life- like, it must have been a heart of stone that warnot deeply moved.

However it had a close shave of carrying. Such a law it appears requires two-tbirds of those voting to lie in favor and two-thirds of 237 (the mun- ber voting) is 168, so strictly it was car- ried by 10 only. Congratulations to Mr Jas. Lloyd on heading the poll. It is a tribute not only to himself but is tribute to and recogni- tion of the four members cf his family who volunteered for the war, He has council experience as has Mr F. Lenahan who will be a strength to the new council. Messrs Murdock and Firth are the only 1918 faces on the new Council and will have to champion the measures of that. year should they be challenged. Two brand new councillors are Jas. A. Mc. Lachlun and D. C. Town, both young men and should have the ambition and the ability to serve their town well. We heard it rem.rked that this is the iirst council in many years that has not in its make-up a Laidlaw. or a Calder or a Hunter, so in a measure it is a break with the past. Let us hope the new council under Mayor George McKechnie. may emulate the virtues of the past avoiding their mistakes. Election Results in Town and Townships All eyes centred on the contest for Reeve, and, a. was expected. it was a close race and Mr Catton is victor by 9 majority. This victory over the strongest municipal war horse in town is something to be proud rf, and without in any way minimizing that victory tt is worth noting thqt Mr Calder ' large though losing vote shows that there is no overwhelming ten- dency itttown to cast off old and tried men tor new and younger blood.
