Other Town Council Busiâ€" ness at Regular Session on Monday Afternoon This iâ€"_â€" Week. Town Council Endorses the Hallowe‘en Community EÂ¥ A request was received by the counâ€" cil for a water tap at 203 Cedar street The regular meeting of the Timmins town council was held on Monday afternoon this week with Mayor E. L. Longmore presiding, and Councillors A. â€"G., Carson, "W. H. Pritchard, P. Dougall and R. Richardson present. Mrs. Philbert also asked the council for recompense on account of damage done to her cellar by water. Counâ€" cillor Pritchard, chairman of the board of works committee reported that he could find no indication wnatever that water had gone into the property unâ€" der the sidewalk. The damage apâ€" parently was due to the situation of the lots and no work by the town in any way contributed to the damage. The council felt it was not a case where the town had any liability. Mrs. Philbert replied to the effect that in that case there would be nothing left north, in the Bartleman township. The clerk said that he had advised the applicant to apply to the Tisdale counâ€" cil as it was outside the limits of tne town. Ths council did not feel that the required tap could be put in under the circumstances as the town only put in taps of this description in town‘ until such time as regular services | could be installed. ’ i | | Mr. F. Kehoe wrote the council on behalf of Mrs. E. Letang, asking for damages for loss of goods through flooding of her cellar this year with water. ‘The board of works had inâ€" vestigated the matter and were conâ€" vinced that the town was not responâ€" sible for the flooding. Indeed, it was felt that improvements made by the town really tended to minimize the fiooding. The council felt that the flooding was due to the house being on low ground and that no town work added anything to the damage but rather assisted to injury to the property. The land was naturally wet. In some past years, before the town made improvements in the section the lots were pumped off. In reply to a question Fire Chief Borland said thatl one year a million and a half gallons of water had been pumped off the lots by the town engine. Council felt it had no responsibility in the matter. Comment was also made on the fact that in the list of goods given in the letter as destroyed by the water were jars of fruit and also empty fruit jars. The council could not see how water would injure these. Batterjless Console., Beautiful W alâ€" nut cabinet with panels of quartered burl wainut. Sevenâ€"tube Neutrodyne.

"Because so many pupills look at| Mr. Dougall explained that the Kiâ€" wanis Club had taken up the matter and planned to carry it through with the assistance of the Canadian Legion and other organizations. The idea was to have a big bonfire on the cyâ€" anide, with fireworks and other amuseâ€" ments. The Timmins Citizens‘ band would provide music for the event if the weather permitted. There would also be commiumity singing. Councilâ€" lor Dougall thought the council might contribute to the funds for defraying the necessary expenses. Mayor Longâ€" more thought the suggestion a good one. He thought young people should have a good time on Hallowe‘en but it was best for all concerned and less exâ€" pensive if this could be done with the minimum of damage and annoyance to ‘citizens. Councillor Richardson thought the proposal well worth tryâ€" out for one year anyway. Other counâ€" cillors expressed similar views and eventually on motion a grant of $200 was made for the comâ€" munity event. Councillor Dougall exâ€" plained that it was expected that there would be 3500 children present. Each child would be given a bag of candies, according to present plans. Cards would be distributed at the schools to avoid duplication in this regard. Councillor Dougall called attention to the inconvenience and annoyance to the public through trucks and cars standing across the walk at the brewâ€" ery warehouse on Spruce street. T‘ne‘ public had to go out in the mud to go. by, there being no sidewalk there. The <council, by resolution, decided to put a sidewalk at this point, as the mud was bad there at times, and there: was considerable traffic. The sidewalik will be a wooden one and will be four‘ or five feet wide. With the sidewalk in place rigs will not be able to back across the walk and block the way. The Dominion Government has esâ€" tablished a radio station at Fort Churchill, Hudson Bay area. A fully modern house with rest rooms and other conveniences for the operators is being constructed. Hereafter radio will keep Ottawa in constant touch with Fort Churchill. Mr. Reginald Durie, formerly operator at Mileage 356, on the Hudson Bay line, has been appointed to take charge of the Fort Churchill radio station. soldiers" Q@. "Define love." A. "A man‘s insane desire to become a woman‘s meal ticket." Councillor P. Dougall brought to the attention of council the proposal to have a big community Hallowe‘en event here on Oct. 3ist. The matter had been suggested in the first place by Chief of Police McLauchlan who believed it would help avoid damage done to property by young people on Hallowe‘en and also prevent annoyâ€" ande to citizens through advantage taken of the Hallowe‘en occasion. The case of a young imay handicapâ€" ped by the effects of infantile paralysis years ago was brought to the attention of council. Dr. Harrison was of the opinion that an operation would greatâ€" ly benefit ner and place herin better way to be selfâ€"supporting. The counâ€" cil was doubtful as to whether the town would be justified in spending money in this wey, and if the precedâ€" dent set would not cause difficulties in other cases. It was thought that perâ€" haps some of the fraternal societies or service societies might take up the case. The matter was left over in any case to another meeting. Changes were authorized in the roll where married men were assessed on income as single men and ratepayers were assessed to the wrong school supâ€" port. A number of overpayments, etc., in the rolls for former yvears were auâ€" thorized to be written off,. Payments to the public, High School and Techniâ€" cal School were also passed. Water rate rebates were authorized in cases where people had moved. Some reâ€" bates were also authorized in the case of overcharges in error and where vaâ€" cancies in premises warranted it. The routine accounts were passed for payâ€" ment. The usual grant of $500.00 was made to the Voliu:iteer Firemen. The mayor referred to tne question of grocery bills for two widows of the Hollinger fire deaths. The families were without funds at the time of the accident and the goods being necesâ€" sary, were duly ordered. The question was whether the accounts should be pald from the relief fund of the town or the special relief fund. Council considered that the latter fund should pay, being established just for such for her to do but sue the town for the damage. Why School Teachers Go Crazy ‘Who is the Minister of War?"
