I i Reeve Wants Assessment Increased An interesting discussion took place on the duties of the Assessor, on town valuation and kindred mat. red matters. Some pointed outthere was grave discrepancies in assess- ment, even on the same steet. The Reeve advocated increasing assem- ment on an average of 20 per cent. increasing low ones at present by, " per cent and reducing those thought to be too high by Bay, 17 per cent. Councillor Hunter at;- reed with the 20 per cent, but would increase all alike and leave to indiv- iduals to object at Court of Revis. ion. There had been little complaints in the past, and the Court of Revis- ion was always open. No step was taken in the meantime, but it would seem that a conference between council and assessor before his dut, ies begin. would be in order. - Conn. Hunter made an appeal on behalf or the Amusement Co. to have their assessment reduced by by-law. to $1000 to help them out of financial dimeulties and something of this nature will likely be done. He point. ed out the necessity of encouraging healthy sport. . The Reeve gave a lucid synopsis of Conn. Bell made a revelation to show the necessity of a constable by charging that a man had at a. recent rink gathering, been dlspeuslng boozo, because he knew thew was! no constable to interfere, and thmi rmm had had to be taken home over-g mmo- with liquor. The Reeve sald' that he also hail heard of a man 'l,': ing in town every Saturday night for’ the purpose of 'selling a load oil booze and the constable never. turn-l ed up though on duty. l i The Reeve recalled old days when [there were four hotels in the. town, tall selling booze to their hearts con- (d/nt and yet the constable or that Iday received only $50 to $75. He was 'not afraid of his own property and could find arguments against paying ’8300 as well as for, but he vanted lto press on their attention the state tot the town finances. He held in his ‘hand an application from Dan Me. Lean, who offered to undertake the duties tor $150. Councillor Bell ac- cused him of trying to reduce emolu- ments of others but neglecting to ro- duce his own. He moved that Fal- coner be reappointed at old salary, or at least $275 for balance of year. This was declared lost. The Reeve; and Conn. Croft moved that McLean be appointed at his otter, but this al. so fell through. and it was decided to issue bills calling for applications tor constable before next meeting. I He supported the petition remind- ing them that the lam constable had upheld the dignity of the office, no complaints had been lodged against him. They were asking no increase of salary, but simply asked that he be re-appointed at the old rate. )Town Council has not --- ; Yet Appointed a Constable l, A petition signed by 143 residents of the town, asking for the reap- pointment of ox-Constable Falcom'r at the old salary was presented. Rev. J. E. Peters was the spokesman of the delegation and came with can gratulatlona to the Council on being chosen to rule. He reminded them a council had more to do than Just be glad to 8Pe money come in and sad to see it go out, and gave» some wholesome advice as to its higher duties in stimulating progress by maintaining order, and told a story" to illustrate the truth that we should not monkey with justice.

The visitors made a poor start. Hanover loading at third time, but the second period was Durham's, when five goals wore scor- ed. As Durham already had the district under lock and key. there was hot the usual interest at- tached to the gamo. The game was not so ireen a contest as the one here.

First game is in Listowvl next Tuesday night, for which an excursion will likely ha run and return game in Durham Friday. R. L. Saunders handled the be",I and kept the teams playing hockey! Though not. so thrilling as some pre-i vious games, it was clean and good: feeling prevailed. The return game; takes place in Mt. Forest Fridaynightl Durham scored the only two goat; of first period, both on 1onglil'ts from right wing by Vollett and Saunders. [Only one minute ot middle period had ;elapsed when Schulz found the nets 'with a tricky shot, and five. minutes later Vollett slapped in a nice one from the side. Mt. Forest got their first after some neat team play, and the puck was shot from directly in front of nets, giving McDonald nu chance to save. Vollett carried the disc down to the opposing defence. and ssid it over to Schutz, who fiite ped in Durham's fifth. Mt. Forest got the last counter when the 'puck came between McDonald's legs before hel could stop it. Score 5-2. I Buschlen took the opening goal ini last session with a pretty shot from! left wing which was surely inside,; though the visitors disputed it at thei time.

The effective team play evitl ‘dent in the Chesley game was scan-M" ly ever noticeable, in fact the visit-l ors showed more system on their tit-i tacks on goal than did the local play-l ers.
