Rotarian Len EUîiott, chair- man o! the Attendance comm.ittee, and whose team was the wnners o! the contest, acted as chairman and allotted each team ten minutes o! the prograin. If this time was not taken up a stipulation was made that 25c must be paid far every min- ute o! time that was le! t unfllled. Rotarian Tommy Knight was the first speaker and it was with appar- ent difficulty that ho fllled in his tume. He however brought up a very interesting matter of club activities which resulted in considerable dis- cussion. Rotarian Mol. Dale also had a novel idea o! getting around the ten minute interval given his team. ' First he introduced the members o! his teain and next made excuses for the absence o! the team president. The members o! the team present then joined la a solo and chorus with Rotarian Ross Strike taking the lead. The selection executed was the -Old Grandfather's Clock" and îts numerous verses, each o! which grew slower, just about filled out the ten minutes. A short address by Rotarian J. U. Robins was the bright spot as well as the redeeming feat- ure a! this part o! the program. Rotarian Charlie Masan was the last speaker. Whlle las team came last in the contest, and he had no apologies ta make for them, he at- tompted to prove however that they were as good Rotarians as the rest, if not better. He called on members o! other teams ta tell him one by one the flrst four rules o! the Ro- tary Code o! Ethics and when they were unable to respand a member a! his teain was able to give the re- quired answer, praving that while they may be lax in attendance they certainly knew their Rotary ethics. Dr. J. F. Thompson o! Port Hope Rotary Club, who is preslding at the examinations at the High School, was a visiting Ratarian. and J. F. Roberts. C.N.R. District Freight Ag- ent. Toronto, was a guest o! Presi- dent Hermie Brown-wha presided. The meeting next week will take the farm o f an installation ceremony wben the newly elected officers and celirectars wlll be duly lntroduced as '<.îe Rotary year starts July lst.

Mounts June Session o! the Counties Council opened June lbth with War- den Geo. Hooton presiding. In op- oning the session the Warden im- pressed upon the Councillors the necossity o! co-operation o! the var- ious comnittees la order ta dispose o! the volume o! business. Follow- ing the reading o! communications, the Council adjourned until Monday evening. The evenmng's business was quick- ly disposed of, and the Council again adjourned until Thursday afternoon. Tuesday was devoted ta committee meetings and on Wednesday the Warden's excursion ta Port Dalous- ie took place. The matter o! the new equalized assessment resulted in a great deal o! discussion. The several munici- [palities, s0 affected, are protesting vigorously against the increase la assessment. Cobourg's threatened withdrawal fram the Counties was discussed, ta detemmine whether or not a compromise can be reached. In the event o! a f ailure to agroe, the natter may be placed befare bigler authorities agala. Clai Criminal Accounts Too Hlgh Complalats that crliinal justice accounts were too high, were voiced by members o! the Finance Coin- mitteeofo the Counties Council on Tuesday a!temnaan. As a result o! the discussion the Warden and Reeve W. F. à~ickard o! Newcastle, wiil interview the govemninent with the abject o! obtaining a reduction la the salaries a! the Crawn Attor- ney, Court reporters, and Clerks o! the Peace, it being the opinion a! the committee that the burden o! paynient a! their salaries is too great. Court Reporters Got $2,560.0 Accordlag ta the Finance Com- mittee, a Court reporter receivos $8 a sitting, thlrty cents a folio for transcribing evidence, and it is nec- essary for one desiring a copy o! the evidence ta pay for saine. Consult- lag the records, Counties' treasurer, Major E. MacNachtan, read that the amount paid to the Court stenog- raphers for 1930, amounted ta $2560. The comnittee f olt that one sten- ographer was sufficient for court work, and considered it unnecessary ta employ more than that number. The appolatinent is a government one, hawever, and the solution, it was decided, was ta obtain consent f rom the authorities ta reduoe the amounts paid. During the court sittings, preslded over by Judge L. V. O'Connor, relative ta the appeal against the new equalized assess- ment, the court reporter received $425.
