Mape an AssionmeEntâ€"Someconcern was felt last week when it was learned that the Jackson Manvfacturing Co. had made an assignment to H. J. Snell. We hope the financial diffliculties which have led to this action may be capable of soâ€" lution and that this fine industry which gave promise of much developement, may yet be placed on a sure and strong foundation. < Oprration has not been suspended, Mr A. A. Catton is in charge and a meeiing of creditors is called for Wednesday of next week when some soâ€" lution will be arrived at The Women‘s Institute met on Friday I last, April 7th at the home of Mrs C Ramage, and considering the dubious weather of that day a gathering of forty three ladies would be termed a larsel mecting. Miss Kathleen Firth in the absence of her mother read a paper brimful of good ideas on "The proper! treatment of buibs." Rev W. H. Smith was present and as President of the Library Board, addressed the ladies as to the advisability of securing books for the Library, that would beâ€"an aid in their sphere of work, and would like their coâ€"operation in making the Library a real help to the various organizations of the town. Misses Winnie Blyth and Jessie Bell contributed a duett and Miss Christene McDonald a solo. Refreshâ€" ments were served at the close of meetâ€" ing. The May meeting wili be the anâ€" nual one of the society. THE The Durhim Reien. uill pens given &ny Lawn at The me:ting on Monday night to conâ€" sider permarent streets in town was not as well attended as was desireable. Mayor Allan presided and after some preliminary remarks called on Mr Calâ€" der who perhaps of all our citizens has had most experience in road constructâ€" ion. He bhad been in Toronto recently had seen Minister Biggs and his deputy and they were inxices that Dwlam should proceed with the work. Personâ€" ally be favored going on too, for there was danger of a change of government and a new gavernment might not be so accommodating as the presert one. Hs entered on a description of the reâ€" quirements of a first class street ; the space of 50 ft between the sidewalks would be taken by aâ€"crown of 20 ft. o concrete in the centre and 15 ft on each side of macadamized road. _ He recalied the cost of concreting in the early years of â€"this contury, about 10 cts a square foot and thought that modern machinery and appliances would enable the work to be done as cheaply now as then. The government gives 40 per cent of the cost of granolithic part, not so much if it were macadamised From these basic items, be thought the cost of building (road, sewers.&c.,) of such a street from Garafraxa St. bridge to the Ford Garage corner would approxâ€" imate $7000.00 and in the calcu‘ation he had included the cost of the sewers and other contingercies The tcun be thought could stard this when met by a byâ€"law extending say over 20 years. Mr Robins, Road Superinterdent of Government Roads, added interest to the discussions. Headvocates strongly a good road, and thought Mr Calder‘s estimate too low. He thinks 16 or 17cts a square fo>t a likely price. Mr Laidllaw from much experience} gained in his travels over the province.! advised putting concrete from side to side and would begin the work from the Review corner. His estimate of the work from bridge to Ford Garage corner including curving gutters, &¢c, was $20000 or $25000. He urged "build it first class| or wait till you are able." Mr Calder thought Mr Laidlaw‘s cost of gutters too high. Mr H. J. Snell thougbht it unwise to go ahead at present, till sewerage and water ~systems are made stable. Mr D. Leith thought it most important the work should be of a more permanent character then the sidewalks down his way. Mr Irwin crystailized the feeling of the meeting by urging the preparation of some definite proposition to enable ordinary citizens to get a better grasp 01'1 the situation, his remarks following the taking of a show of hands as to whether Lthey should go on or not. Few voted an‘d the negative carried. Mr Jobn ‘ Hunter entered his protest against comâ€" ing to any décision untilclearerestimates ‘ot cost, &c. was made. | _ At last on motion of Jno. . Murdock, H. R. Kock a resolution was carried asking the Council to ascertain «<ome ‘defimte method of action as to style of | road, probable cost. etc The councilmet at the close of the public meeting, and made or will make arrangements to comply with the desire of the public meeting. Why Durham and Hanover were Omitted To the editor, Durham Review : Dear Sir: In last week‘s issue of the Review, we were unfavorably impressed with the stand you have taken in regards to the lacrosse grouping that was suggested and published from Mt. Forest recently. You say that Durham and Hanover, two 0f the best lacrosse towns in the province, were omitted. We quite agree with you and that is the exact reason we omitted them. Now getting right down to busiâ€" ness, what chance would Mt. Forest, or any of the other towns mentioned, have with Durham or Hanover ? The majority iof the towns included have not played lacrosse for a period ranging® from seven to filteen years If in any way, they l were grouped with Durham and Hanover lfor the first year, it would be another filteen years before the game would ‘be revived again _ Please do not assume, that we are taking a dictatorial attitude in this matter, but are simply pointing out what would be the result if the groupings were arranged to suit the editor Thanking you for the valuable space we have taken, we are, Yours very truly, Better Streets for Durham As I have disfipsed of my groeery business and am Maving town, all acâ€" corntss must be led on or before April 22nd, 1922.

Brown the flowers and Miss Leas McComb aremembrance to Bruce. Mr. McEwen returned sincere thanks on bebalf of himself and wife. â€" He felt his coming here had not ail been in vain, a debt had been cleared off and his inâ€" tercourse with his colleagues in the othâ€" er town churches had impressed him with the importance of the brotherhood of man. Mr ar d Mrs. Giles here gave a duett, admirable in taste and harmony. Rev. Ns Hardy was frankly glad Mrâ€" McEwen was going ; it was a promotion (Continued on Page 4) A rived Nb Roy Mills.
