"The Garden Party that is different"‘ was one of the phrases on the bills for the Anglican function of Friday evening last on the Rectory lawn. And it was too. The Play, or Farceâ€"comedy, "The New Coâ€"Ed" in four acts, ran through a good part of the evening, and the interâ€" vals between the acts were filled by solo numbers by the entertaining group, the St. George‘s Dramatic Club of Owen Sound. While all the performers were fair, several of them showed excellent dramatic ability, and the humorist of the bunch, had an unusually good brand of the article. We areafraid the proâ€" fuseness and length of the program was not in the interest of the iceâ€"cream sellers, but the function as a whole left the flavor of excellence. Rev. Mr Hardy acted as intermediary between performâ€" ers and people, and some local stars furnished some numbers. | McCormicx.â€"At Sault Ste. Marie on Sunday, Juue25th to Mr and Mrs Alex.

To Answer or not to Answer To us it seems like a snub to the courteous request of the Attorneyâ€"Genâ€" eral, and the absence of a reply will likely result in nothing being done as to the retention or dismissal of the Police Magistrate, a result that we in town will lose sleep over. Street paving was another contentions subject. Building on a motion passed at a previous meeting, a motion was preâ€" sented by Calder and McQueen, that tenders beat once asked for for the paving of Garafraxa st. from Smith‘s garage to the C P. R. track with the provision that the cost would not exceed $2 00 per sq yard, this offer the Reeve said having been madealready. Another string to the motion being that 20 per centof the cost be charged to property owners fronting on said paving. Opponâ€" ents of this motion she‘tered behind the resolution of a committee of five apâ€" pointed at a ratepayers meeting, which resolution recommended delaying the paving and going on with storm sewers, &c., to avoid trouble later on if paveâ€" ment was made now. The reeve pointed out that money available now from government and county sources might not be available later on. The council divided evenly, so the motion falls. Yeas wereâ€" Smith, Calder. Adams, Mcâ€" Queen. Nays,â€"Allan Saunders, Catton McDonal!d. The above captions are suggested by the action of Town Council on Monday night. A communication from the atâ€" torney general‘s department to Clerk Vollet, asked for specific instances of lapses or wrong doing on the part of Police Magistrate Laidlaw, as implied in the action of Town Council in formally carrying a motion to ask for his disâ€" dismissal. Should or should not this letter be answered ? The reeve took the ground that it was unnecessary, secing he had received a similar letter to which he had replied. Mr Catton, the new councillor, voiced the opposite opinion, that in courtesy as well as in official practice it should be answered by the clerk. He moved acâ€" cordingly that Mr Calder furnish the information required to the clerk and have him send to Department. Mr Calder strenuously objected to this, carrying with him in the vote Councilâ€" lors Saunders, McQueen and Adams, Councilliors McDonald and Dr. Smith supporting MrCatton, a vote of 4 to 3. As the mayor had previously shown himself in favor of replying to the letter, the councilstands evenly divided. but the majority carries. The Board of Health asked through Dr. Hutton, the counsel and coâ€"operation of the councilin regard to Miss Jane Bell. who for a month past has been i!l and receivimg ministrations only from peighbors. To incur expenseis difficult the patient having objections to signing checks A suggestion from Dr. Smith that she be taken to Hospital will likely be acted upon, the council promisirg to stahd behind the Board of Health. A long discussion of the motion of last meeting, advocating the removal of the,Police Magistrate took place. This is referred to elsewhere. Mr A. A Catton took his seat in sucâ€" cession to Mr LI6gd and will bring added strength to the council. Mr A. H. Jackâ€" son was a representative of the Memorâ€" ial committee asking the Council to consider going half cost on the fine site in front of the Rectory. Its elaims were well presented, but a division of opinion existed, other sites were mentioned, and the mecting we believe, adjourned withâ€" out final action. _ We believe that the Council would honor itself and end the uncertainty by acceptirg the proposal Mr Jackson presented.
