If there is any shortage of fuel wood in Timmins next winter it will not be the fault of the town council. Counâ€" cillors Spooner and Gladstone were apâ€" pointed a committee to look after the matter and they have been right on the job all the time since.

Special Effort Needed to Meet Quota for Councillor J. W. Spooner at Monday‘s council meeting emphasized the need for special effort in the collection of fats in town. The quota for the town had been set at 40 tons for this year. With nearly a quarter of the year gone, Timmins was far from sight of the quota. Pats were essential for the making of munitions, and he felt that i‘ all realized the need, the quota would be reached. So far this year 2,800 lbs. of fat had been collected, largely through the enterprise and effort of the theatres.

He reâ€" commended the appointment of a comâ€" mittee in each municipality to study postâ€"war cbnditions, to prepare a list of public works that could be underâ€" taken to provide employment. Councillor Karl Eyre pointed out that the council was ready to appoint the committee asked, but there was already prepared a lengthy list of essential pubâ€" lic works for the postâ€"war period.

"If you can get the youngsters interested," he said, "things will move along." Councilior Spooner endorsed but added that considerable might be colâ€" lected from cafes hotels, etc. All that was necessary was to put the waste fat in a tin and it would be collected along with the garbage.
