E. Knight announced at the outset that he would again be a candidate for office and started in to give an account of his record as chairman of the Board of Works. He defended the purchase of the new truck and road maintainer, stating that more miles of. road, at less cost, had been taken care of in 1928 than ever before. He also thought the town had never enjoyed as good. roads as this year, despite the exces-' sive rains. Upkeep of roads in Barrie] this year, he said, had cost less than} $209 a mile, which would put county and provincial figures far in the shade. Ac r\I 'Dn1v'F{o`rI Q9 navy-Inn `In .- PRESBYTERIANS HONOR MINISTER Members and adherents of St. An- drew s Church had a very happy con- gregational gathering last Thursday night at which their minister, Rev. J. S. Shortt, and Mrs. Shortt were the guests. Ever since Mr. Shortt was hon- ored with the position of moderator of the Synod of Toronto and Kingston, it had been planned to have such a gethering to show honor to their min- ister, but owing to conflicting engage- ments it was not convenient to hold it at an earlier date. - A1nl! f`r\I-Iu'av\ nvnnidnrl nvu-I Pkg-r-a tune 1111. Short addresses of a very happy and congratulatory nature were made by Rev. J. B. Thomson of Allandale and Rev. Neil Campbell, the latter an ex- moderator of Synod. Both testified to the splendid work Mr. Shortt had done for the Church. Mr. Thomson recalled that when he came from Scotland ten years ago Mr. Shortt was one of the first men to greet him in Synod at Edmonton. fl`!-up. nnnan-nd-nl-Inna foal-11v-or! l-HA rw-n- _ only human and appreciated not only B0 one Iruuiswr a. uzurubuuic In ux uuau. In reply, Mr. Shortt said he was the honor conferred upon him by synod but even more the evidences he had received or his congregation s esteem and respect. One of the great- est satisfactions of his life was to feel the fine fellowship and goodwill existing between them. Such consid- eration and kindness inspired a min- ister to his best work and he bespoke their continued cooperation that the highest results might be achieved. On behalf of Mrs. Shortt and himself, he extended very` warm thanks. Dnfunehmnnfc nmrn cat-var} and affnr `lav VLLAUALHJ LAB nu. yo Ana: All 0115 DLLGUC. "MRS for Bayfield St. paving, Mr. Knight said that ultimately a perm- anent road would have to be laid and inasmuch as it was now a provincial highway, advantage should be taken .of the govenment s policy paying 50 per cent. of the cost before the offer was withdrawn. I-I-II__ _`_._.-J._- _.--___ L-1,1 1 Vvrau vvauaausawtlu i The deputy-reeve told his hearers: that Barrie had a million dollars in-' vested in its roads, sidewalks and sew-I ers and was only spending one per-_I cent. in maintenance. It was not` enough and such a policy would not be tolerated by a private corporation} for a moment. He deplored the lack of equipment last spring in taking care of emergencies caused by floods and storms. He advocated the continuance of work on Sophia St., Gunn St. cul- vert, permanent roads for Bayfield and Collier and the diversion of traf- fic along the latter to relieve con- gestion of Dunlop St. All these things, he said, would eventually have to be undertaken, while most imperative works was the Mary St.` sewer and the cleaning of the septic tanks in Ward 6, something which had already been too long delayed and which might any time cause much annoyance, in- convenience and expense. Mr. Knight's practical address was a plea that more money be put at the disposal of the Board of Works.
