Other Matters Before Special Meeting of Council Monday. In the report in The Advance last week of the theatre nights at the Timâ€" mins High and Vocational School on Feb. l4th and the confusion of some lines of type in the making of corrbctions on the proof left one paraâ€" graph incomplete and somewhat mixâ€" ed. This paragraph referred to the scenery, stage effects and lighting for the theatre nights. The scenery, lightâ€" ing and stage effects were outstanding and those responsible deserve the highâ€" est credit. As a matter of record and fairness The Advance would repeat here what was written last week. Special mention should also be made of the seetnery, stage settings and the lighting effects. These were unusually well made and arranged. For the "Romance of the Willow Pattern" the cffects were strikingly beautiful and artistic and won general approval. The scenery was by Miss Briffett, Mr. Mcâ€" Dowell, Mr. Worthington and the stuâ€" dents of the Art and Woodworking deâ€" partments. The lighting was by Mtr. McDowell, Mr. Vogel, and the Elecâ€" trical department. The scenery, stage settings and lighting, effects were equal to those of any firstâ€"class professional company. Scenery High Reduction in the rental charge for meters will go into effect next quarter, Where the rental charge used to be 25 cents a month, it is now 25 cents for three months. Reduction on rentals for all sizes amount to oneâ€"third. Here are the new rates:â€"halfâ€"inch meters, 25 cents per quarter; threeâ€"quarter inch meters, 35 cents per quarter; one inch meters, 50 cents per quarter; one and oneâ€"half inch meters, one dollar per month:; and two inch meters, $1.25 per month. Of the 126 meters now installed in the town oi Timmins, the halfâ€"inch ones are well in the majority, as there are more than 75 of them, compared with about 25 threeâ€"quarter inch, six one inch, nine one and oneâ€" half inch and five two inch. Only very large users of water such as the schools, hospital and hotels require the larger sized meters.

Canada THURSDA Y The stand of the council in the case of a Mrs. Cohen who disputes the right of the town to hold her to an agreeâ€" ment to buy part of Broadway adjoinâ€" ing her lot, was further clarified on Monday night when they instructed the clerk to write to Mrs. Cohen‘s lawyer indicating that the town beâ€" lieved its position . to be quite right. The question arose from the distribuâ€" tion of Broadway avenue after it had been closed off as a street. Property owners whose lots adjoined the old transmission line site were given first chance to buy sections, and the town holds an â€"agreement signed by Mrs. Cohen agreeing to buy the sections allotted to her.

It is expected that a new light deâ€" livery truck will be purchased for the use of the public works department and that the old fire truck chassis and the former police car will be turned in on the new one. This has been a need of the public works department for some time and although it was at first thought possible to convert the old fire truck chassis into a light truck for the purpose this is not now considered to be feasible. local service lines. cutfit, which consi: transformer with w to the service lines the pipe to be thaw regu.ar imet on the polict per month; « over $160 pe2 Mr. CarrEmnEâ€" NERVES _ in trouble again $1 200 lowest monthly â€" salary town for a fullâ€"time office $50 per month; the highest nth.

Police evidence was to the effect that she had been in St. Mary‘s hospital in OctOber where she admitted to being a dope addict and to making her living by prostitution. On Feb. 7th she had been brought in drunk and was supposed to leave town on the 9th. "She has frequented every common bawdy house in the town of Timmins during those four months. She has no visible means of support." said the constable. She was sentenced to not less than ~three months and not more than two years less one day in the Onâ€" tario Reformatory. For rapping on peoples doors on Balsam street north at an early hour in the morning, a man was assessed two dollars and costs on . the evidence of a town constable. A woman, who when asked why she was not able to go on with her case, said she was sick, was asked, "Have you a doctor‘s certificate?" She said she had, and produced a bottle of medicine. The case will be heard next week. Reckless driving charges, resulting from an accident in which a taxi and another car driven by a young man were involved, were finally concluded. On the evidence of an eyeâ€"witness, the testimony of the taxiâ€"driver was upâ€" held, which showed that the young man had been driving quickly and the accident was the result of this speed. He was fined $10 and costs. ers wert One â€" m dollars, With to put Magistr; $10 and posure. Several Jail Terms at Tuesday‘s Police Court Woman Vagrant Sentenced.

Lapointe admitted that he had and produced the language all ready writâ€" ten out for the magistrate to read. He claimed Mrs. Danis and some cther women followed him about town. Credit Under False Pretences George Odinak, a native of the Ukraine, whose knowledge of English is limited, was charged with having obâ€" tained credit in October, 1934, under false pretences. He had gone to a local merchant and brought $18 worth of clothes, saying that he was employed at the Hollinger, and showing a brass check to "prove" it. It was later ascerâ€" tained that he had not been at the mine at that time. At first George had the case mixed up with another one which had been withdrawn but when it was all straihtened out, he asked to be tried by Magistrate Atkinâ€" son and admitted to the fraud. To the amusement of the court, he referred to the magistrate each time he spOoke as "Mr. Lloyd George." Finally it became a little too much for his worship and George was told that he was not in the presence of the great Welshman. It is possible that what the man wanted to say was "Lord Judge." George was sentenced to 30 days in jail. Louis Mammoletti, who.. had in his possession two wheels that had been stolen from a wrecked car by someâ€" one, was charged with retaining' in his possession goods he knew to be stolen. He claimed he had found them in the bush, 75 feet from the car and had sold them when he needed money. In reply to the crown‘s question as to why he took them, he said "If I didn‘t take them, somebody else would have." He was bound over to keep the peace for two years and to make restitution to those to whom he sold the wheels. 30 Days For Wood Theft Two and a half cords of wood were involved in a theft charge against L. Bastien. A Mr. Lemire, who lives across the bridge in Mountjoy townâ€" ship had a pile of word in his back yard and when he returned one day, he noticed that a large quantity of it had disappeared. Provincial police were informed and Bastien was arres charged. He claimed that 1 bought the wood from some u person whom he had met at tlk house, for three dollars a C( had tried to sell it to the pt of a local hotel for the same p said there were three cords.
