O. S. Hunter suggested our paving estimate of $70,000 is approximate. It may be $100,000. He favored pun ing, but would tirgt let people decide two years, had been caused by H. S. Board asking reduced levy from town, to use up a $8000 surplus. The Province and County were paying 1% times as much as Town to support of High School. Dr J. P. Grant, in a forceful au, dress. appreciated the opportunity of presenting school affairs before rate- payers. He explained the High Sch- ool Board's deficit this year, show- Ing that lowered tax rate the past sea. and tax collector had not col- lected nearly all dog and poll taxes. They allowed some dogs to run at large, while others had to be tied. He then read the report of the en- gineers, James, Proctor and Redfern. who made the survey for paving, a synopsis ot which appeared in last week’s Review. Of the $70,000 cost, for pavement and sewers, he pointed out, if suggested frontage rates are adopted, only 819,850 will be borne by town at large, or $1800 a year, a- bout 3 mills additional while a con- siderable sum would be saved in oiling and repairs. A representative of the engineering firm was to come to ex- plain the paving proposition in de, tail. He could not come that even- ing, but will be here some time soon (possibly next week end) to address a public meetinr and "We the rate. payers all possible information.

All other expendi. ture was beyond control of council. Our total debenture debt is $101,000 including 822124.82 guaranteed de. bentures. These latter include the recent $10,000 guaranteed hospital bonds, for which the town holds a mortgage. Durham's actual deben- ture debt is only 850,000, which is a- mount unsecu‘red by slnking fund. Attendance was larger than for some years out. which may be at- tributed to interest in the new pav- ing proposals. As Clerk Vollet did not desire to omciate as chairman, Mr J. A. Graham was voted to the chair and filled the position very efficiently, giving every candidate present or absent, no opportunity to be heard. All present spoke and " most all took the platform, where a number of really good addresses, from mayoraity, reeve and council nominees were attentively heard by the ratepayers. No one was nominated tor Reeve except the present occupant, but In addition to the ten in the field, the following were nominated for coun- eil, but declined to qualify: Arthur MeCioektin, (of former council) W J McFadden, Wm Erwin, Jan Mather, Grant McComb, W.

She had attained the good age of 78 yrs. and while for some time back she has led a retired life, was still able to assist in light housework. On Christmas Day she was peeling the potatoes for the dinner that evening at her dautrhter's, when she sudden- ly became ill. From that to Satur- day, she became gradually worse, when she was transported to a fair- er land. Born, to grow up to Winsome girl. hood and budding maidenhood and then to pass out of this lite a trag. rant memory, is the untimely pas- sing of Miss Irene Elliott, daughter of Mr and Mrs Alexander Elliott, who passed away on Sunday morning last, in Durham Hospital, at the age ot 16 years. 4 mos. After a year in Durham High Schoil. Irene accepted a position in Durham Furniture Co., and unto the last week or so was a steady employee. She was troubled with healing and running ears. but no serious attitude was taken from this and only last Wednesday was removed to Win Hospital, where on Friday sh was operated upon tor mastoid. Never a strong girl, the severe operation, while aiming to re lieve, caused the patient much But, fering' and she passed away as above. Irene was born in Durham and some time after the family moved to Wingham. They returned to Dur. ham 7 or g years ago. where. Mr Et. liott is foreman of the C N R section gang out of Durham. There are tour brothers and two sisters. who with the parents, will miss the touch and presence of the loving sister and daughter. Irene was an active wor- ker in the Queen St Church and rec- ently entertained the Mission Circle in her home.
