for certain mat ers to bevdiscuss in camera uch occasions ould be the ception not the rule If hush up amattcr must be against public interest The duty of the lis clear it must acquaint uhlic with what is happen would add to the above that eetings which are made known to the members of the coun or theboards are not public tings as the public has not given any opportunity to be them These would come under heading mentioned in the bpve article from The Windsor ally Star other Stroud died In Norway Mrs Banting former postmis of Stroud writes that she has changed mail from Norway with Stroud post

debenture should be raised rebuild the Stroud hall the com ttee met some opposition when aterayers of the Knock school lect on objected to their being in uded in the area which would be essed for the debenture ey were in the minority so as the number required for etition and the result was Council on request ofviths nailboard committee went ahead nd passed motion instructing ierk to have bylaw drawn uthorizing debenture and the unieipality taking over the hall perty Before thiscould be acted on however the Knock committee to the Department of Mun Affairs under whose juris ct community halls are hand ed and after consultation with Mr hshley who is the official in charge the whole matter was left is abeyance he hall board committee also ent to the Department and were some instructions as to the method ofhandiing the mat revamping the ball meet old in Stroud hall on Tues dny vening was the first since ll otterhad been in Council motion to move the present tothe orchard lot and mod lze it was passed The meeting ich had number of Knock payers present who came not block any move to improve ud ball but to make sure that they were not to be included in the payment of these costs had ut 50 persons present Aeom tee consisting of William New Lenuox Black Jack Thom son Blythe McQonkeyand Bert reen were appomted to bring in re port to the hall board on the costs of reconstruction on foundation itheron the rehard lot or on and to ke sug astions as to the total Ilint need if that th partment would givea grantof 25 of the value of the reconstruc tzdbuilding The problem of how raise the other funds wasnot ded Polling of those present what amount they might be contribute did not re housand dollars Many those present did not make nyoffer With the withdrawal of Knock section it would mean HI ions that new petition would have to be circulated Bowman Allen and Clifford Webb speaking for their district asked that it be definitely cshb lished that their section would not be included in the Stroud area We have our own ball tokeep up and for the few that are there this is quite enough Mr Webb told the meeting Chairman lifford Caiscadden of the Stroud ommittee asked that letter be sent them so that this request could be entered in their minutes The committee getting the estim ates are to report back to the Board within two weeks after which another public meeting will be held to decide the method to be adopted to raise the estimated funds required Line Up For Discount On Payment OfTaxes The last few daysinJuly have been busy ones for the treasurers do artment The allowed for pa ment of taxes before July 81 brought in fair portion of the current taxes it was not just the matter of collecting taxes that took the time but many of the ratepayers had some matter which they felt should be dealt with while they were at the wicket The changing of the home ad dress or the variation of the amount due or some other matter which would mean that the clerk would have to leave the wicket and look up the records delayed the process of collection consid erably Exchange Collected 0n Stroud Cheques Some members of lnnisiil Cred it Union who have service with cheques exchangeable at par in one of the banks in Barrie were dis appointed to find that the bank in which the township funds were kept would not accept these at par This meant that they had to cash their cheques and take the cash With them to the township office located in Stroud Either the township could open an account in the bank where the local Credit Union does business or make some arrangements to have the total cheques cleared These several hundred members using their own banking service should not have to pay exchange right in their own village The township has an account in bank at Cookstown and alsoatLefroy which enables the ratepayers to pbyrtheir taxes locally Small Attendance For Local Boll Games It may be the TV which has deterred the Stroud fans away from the ball games At game between Bolton and Stroud last week about 50 fans were out to root for the home team From the lack of support given the visitors it would appear that they came without any supporters The game got away to big start with Stroud piling up lead of six runs in the first innings This seemed to dampen the spirit of the Bolton squad but they did manage to keep Stroud down to one more run When the umpire did not show up substitute in the person of Reeve Gibbins who donned the mask call the pitches In one innings with men on bases av Bolton player had three balls and two strikeswhen shoulder high pitch came over The umpire called it ball but as the player started for first base he changed his decision and call ed strike This retired the side They might have regained some of their uneven standing had the next batter been able to hat home run As it was Bolton went Ii did not ans was praen show theirusual lioellness Bell Ewort School Will Occupy The Hell meeting of the ratepayers of Belle Ewart school section on Wednesday evening instructed the Board by an unanimous vote to take over and use the local com mon hall school room tem po for nestthrec years at least The meeting hadit not been would have become rather hot as it appeared that some of the rate payers attendlng had come with the intention of getting many things off their chest Mr Pearce former member of Toronto City Council kept the meeting along the his era under dlscusion and in one instance he apologized to the chairman of the school board Mr Sheppard when someone made remark that was somewhat per sonal It will be remembered that last January the ratepayers votedto halt the expansion of the school by three rooms at estimated cost of $60000 The Board who had already requested an architect to make plans and had arranged the purchase of land at cost of 35000 were told by the ratepayers to drop the wholc matter Following this the County Health Unit instructed the Board that the temporary rooms being used were not to be occupied af ter the completion of the June snw linksue Eh Ion Bandy on DWlllI nu Banl 15 lnsi UH run down lu Penelanx St eaumtu my Lynn MEMORIAM Aim1 lovfnl memo or our dun lather

the present three room school with no place to go The community hall which is in the name of the school board has according to the solicitor for the township clause which bars the use of the land for other than community purpose For this rea son the Board had not begun to get it ready to occupy as school it will rcquire an expenditure of some$5000 to make it accept able as tworoom school by the Health Unit This of course would become the property of the hall when the building was turned back to community hall As no effort was beingmsde to get some place for the overflow which iscaiculated by ome as about an and by othcrs as to 10 pupils the ratepayers called the meeting to which the Board was asked to attend Mr Pearcewho owns sub stantial summer home in the area favored the use of the hall rather than the immediate expenditures of the cost of new school al though he stated the best for the chilldrlen was none too good He offered to contribute onefifth of the costs of the expenditure to making the building into school room This offer was greeted with applause He said he felt sure that there were others who would also contribute to this The Board has funds on hand which
