It was a menâ€" ace to health, he said. The mayor said the matter rested with the board of health and that body would see that it was moved away. A man present asked if the relief officer was supposed to find a man work if he was willing to work. He was told that the relief officer would place men in touch with work if there was work available. This man said he had been working on the highway but had been let go. The mayor thought that a man could get work this summer if he tried and that it was unfair to ask the town to support men I-able to work. The man replied that he !wanted work at a living wage. He told ’the mayor he had held a job once for nine years, ,but refused to explain why he lost it, further than to remark that if a man made a mistake once, he could change. He could not do heavy work l and did not want to go to the airport as he would be no further ahead in the spring. "You would be living withâ€" out being a burden on the town," said the mayor, who showed the position of the town and that money set aside for relief work and relief was nearly all !gone. Councillor Bartleman said the former government had been blamed for not helping more with relief but ‘this one was worse. The man was finally advised to see the Employment Bureau. ‘ Citizens on Tisdale street between Pine and Cedar asked why they did not get a sidewalk after petitioning do prin have days first the ness ques for larg Ott: with shot two In new ness citic Stat busi thin info get | tinu with and act min. outs able time one info actil muC attr: frow (Continued from Page One) across the tracks at First avenue asked for a crossing on the T.

Council thought the people petitioning did not realize the danger at a crossing at this point. There are several tracks and almost continuous shunting of cars makes it very dangerous for a crossing. One of the citizens concernâ€" ed said that he was sure the petitionâ€" ers understood the situation. The matâ€" ter was deferred, however, when the mayor said he would write the T. N. O. head office at North Bay and in the meantime the council would arâ€" range to meet and look over the site of the proposed crossing with the resiâ€" dents. | Mr. R.

Ontario‘s premier gold camp shows the way in other things besides minâ€" ing. News has just been received by W. O. Langdon, President of the Board of Trade, that Timmins, Schumacher and South Porcupine are within the next few months to have an official city catalogue much the same as the system adopted in the Maritime Proâ€" vinces last year. The new Timmins catalogue will combine the information previously contained in the regular city directory and telephone books, such as names of streets, names of citizens, with occupations and ‘phone numbers, lists of officials of the town, the Proâ€" vince, etc., as well as lists of all kinds of business firms, government Oorganâ€" izations, hospitals, clubs and sundry organizations.

Counâ€" cillor Laprairie suggested that the council thank the power company for this voluntary reduction. Councillor Bartleman didn‘t think so. He claimed that under the new rates some people would actually have to pay more than before. He also thought that The council should meet a representative of the company in the near future to d‘scuss the power question. Councillor Maltais commented that the coming reduction did not make any difference to the municipal light costs. It was finally decided to meet a representative of the Northern Ontario Power Co. on Sept. 24th if that date were satisfacâ€" tory to him. for 15 years. The mayor said the town could not afford it this vear, but it vould be put on the lst for next year. The clerk was asked to makel a record of it.

If every man who wanted shelter from the rain in this North were to break a freight car seal this summer there would not.be enough freight cars to go round.
