And we further recommend the payment of committee fees and expenses amounting to $153.35. Councillor Moyer did not think that Merritton and Port Dalhousie should be made to help pay the expenses of the County's lawyer, and the follow- ing amendment was proposed by Councillors Johnston and Moyer: That the_report of the special com- mittee be referred back to them and that the salary of G.

He stated that this Wouldsave the Council time and that this section was all that was neces- sary to the report. A by-law was introduced by motion of Councillors Claus and Bush mak- ing the village of Jordan into a police village. The by-law was passed. Councillor Moyer was in favor of placing a statement before the Q. & G. road committee, he thought this would satisfy everyone. The votes on the amendment were taken. The Council divided as tol- lows: Yeas---Bradley,. Johnston, Moyer. Nays-Masters, Stewart, Bush Claus, Robertson; Randall, Fleming The amendment was declared lost. The original motion to adopt the report was then voted on. Yeas-- Stewart, Claus, Randall, Bush, Robert son, Fleming, Nars---Masters, Brad- ley, Johnston, Moyer. The motion was carried and the report adopted. Councillor Randall did not think that this was necessary. It had never been done before and it would look as if thefouncil lacked confidence in the committee. Councillor Bradley said he had a right to ask for an itemized statement. The work of the committee was sub- ject to the approval of the Council and because it had never been done before was no reason why it should not be done now. Councillor Steward explained the situation and expressed his opinion that Merritton and Port Dalhousie should be excluded from the. ex- penses. They had been fighting the Council and should pay their own expenses. The other municipalities should do the same. Councillor Bush stated that the com mittee had acted as authorized by the Council. - Councillor Bradley asked that an itemized statement of the committee's expenses be put in the report. Councillor Bush stated that the com mittee had been authorized by Jhe Council to employ legal advice, there tore, the Council should pay his tar- penses. , Almost from the very day the great European war began in August last, the outstanding feature in Canadian journalism covering the coutliet Elias been "The War Sunnnary” daily on pages 1 and 2 of THE GLOBE. In the coneisest possible form the writer has given his readers a pen picture of the developments in all parts of the world. While the details of the movements along the extended frontiers have not been overlooked. the readers of THE GLOBE have been enabled to follow intelligently and with eontidenee the general outlines of the stupendous confiidt. "The War Summary” of THE GLOBE is reproduced daily by several papers throughout the Dominion. THE GLOBE on its editorial page has striven to place before the public in proper perspective the broad background of the titanic struggle. This series of articles has attracted the attention not only of the Canadian people, but of leading men and Journals in all parts of the world. The causes leading up to the war, the elements entering into its conduct, and the 1is11lts likely to tiow from the cessation of hostilities have been dealt with in that bold and clear-cut form charac- teristic of THE GLOBE'S editorial page. . The sporting pages, the financial and commercial pages, the woman’s pages, etc., etc., with the additional pages in Wednesday's issue devoted to “Farm and Country Life," are maintained at a high standard of excellence. a standard that has justified THE GLOBE in its title of Caiada's National Newspaper, and has given it by many thousands the largest circulation of any morning paper in the Dominion.

It read: Your committee visited the jail and found everything in good condition. The small room that was ordered re-pa- pered at the January session has been completed. That all small accounts be paid on recommendation of the chairman when properly certified to; that tenders were called for the re- wiring of the court house and that the Clifford Electric Co. were found to be the most satisfactory, and were award ed the contract at $350. We found that considerable electrical work outside of the contract was needed, and we had it done, which now makes a very complete job; that tenders for re- painting and decorating the office of the county school inspector were called for, and the contract was given for $55, his tender being the lowest; that accounts amounting to $229.88 be paid and committee fees amounting to $48.70 be paid and that the usual h0li- days be granted the caretaker. Clrrk and Treasurer. The report was Moved by Councillors Randall and Nelson that the request of the commit- tee on advertising of the Niagara Fruit Growers' Association, be put in. the hands of the Finance Committee. The motion was carried. The warden assured the committee that their case was one in which the county was deeply interested and that it would be put in the hands of the proper committee for consideration. Mr. Clement of the agricultural ex- periment station at Vineland stated that 80 per cent of the tender fruits raised in Canada were raised in the Niagara Peninsula. He mentioned the results of other large advertising cam- paigns and thought that this one should increase the consumption of fruits in this district at least from 33 to 50 per cent. He also stated that the campaign would last tor 15 weeks and would be carried on by experts. .Mr. W. H. Bunting pointed out the necessity of an advertising campaign in, this district to prevent the loss ot fruits, of which there promised to be a large crop, notwithstanding the re- cent heavy frost. He stated thpt the Association took in the Counties of Lincoln, Welland and Wentworth; re presentatives of-these counties were on the committee, further that the case had been put before the Federal and Provincial Governments, acting under the County Publicity Act, but that the committee must be endorsed by the County Council before the above parties would extend their aid. "This committee therefore asks this council to endorse the committee and also to help in a financial way." The entire cost of the campaign has been estimated at $5,000; of this $3,000 is to be raised by public subscription. Mr. Bunting suggested that the Council grant them $300. _ Councillor Bush wanted to know if the report could be mutilated in this manner. He thought it should be accepted as it stood, as the Council did not have to follow out the recom- mendation ot the auditors. Mr. A. Onslow' stated that the com- mittee had planned an extensive ad- vertising campaign to be carried on through the newspapers drawing at- tention to the‘choice fruits raised in the district and to the district itself. He further stated that the campaign would bring in large results and be a benefit to the county that is if the plans of the committee were carried out. Councillor Moyer thought the mat.. ter should be considered more. There was something about the report which should have been left out, but they should be considered carefully. Councillor Claus was also in favor of considering the matter more. The Warden stated that any grievous clauses in the report could be struck out. Councillor Randall was in favpr of taking more time to consider the mat ter. ' A deputation from the Advertising and Publicity Committee of the Nia- gara Peninsula Fruit Growers' Asso- ciation waited on the Council Wed- nesday afternoon with a request for a grant to help their campaign of ad- vertising the fruits of the district. Because of the lateness of the hour Councillor Fleming withdrew his motion arid the Council adjourn- ed. , I 'l l, THE I1rqtpmjn!ipgi_qlrrrh_qRorgBT_,_ttr14IpI. Moved by Councilmen Bush and Johnson that the request of the Colle- giate School board be placed in the hands of the Education Committee. Carried. A member pt the Board will attend the sitting of this committee. Igguntfyx, the city thought it only right It at" he'county should contribute toward the new building which was to cost about $160,000. The mayor? said further that the county pupils did not pay the real cost ot their education and that the city had to pay 20 per cent of it. "This county is the rich- est, whereas the city is poor and we think it only right that the' county should, help pay tor a new institution to which they send their pupils." On motion of Councilmen Nelson and Randall, the request of the .St. Catharines and Lincoln county Horti- cultural Society for a grant was plac- ed in the hands ot the Finance com- mittee. T _ Ald. Wiley said that the city rate- payers were clamoring to know why they had to pay for a new school to which the county sent thirty per cent of the pupils, If the institute refused admittance to county pupils, the coun- ty would be compelled to build a school of their own; therefore, it was only right that they should help pay for the cost and maintenance of the Collegiate Institute. On question of the county council- men, the mayor requested the council to interest themselves in the new Col- legiate to the percentage as there were pupils attending the school. The warden assured the delegation that the county was in favor of the highest education and that the mat- ter would be left in the hands of the proper committee. Dr. Sutherland, as chairman of the Collegiate Board, gave the following facts: There were at the present time 330 pupils attending the Institute. Of these 227 were from the city, 97 from Lincoln County and 6 from other counties. The county pupils paid only 80 per' cent of their maintenance and 30 per cent of the pupils were from the county. "The Minister of Education has been asked regarding the matter and he thinks it only right that the county should help pay the cost of the building which has been iound necessary. Mir. Dwyer, as a member of the Col- legiate Board, said that tor years the board had felt it necessary to build a new institute. Now it was a real ne- cessity as the government would re- fuse their grant if a new building was not forthcoming. "This Institute af- fords a high scho.ol for the district and the officials and rbpresentatives of the county ought to feel it only fair that they should pay the entire cost of the maintenance of their pupils and help pay for the new building. Mr. Craise, as a member of the board, stated that it was a question of fairness. "Is it tair," he said, "that the city should be compelled to build a new school which would be unneces- sary if there were no county pupils in attendance? The county should pay for their, maintenance and help pay tor the new institute." Ald. Burgoyne stated that the claim was a substantial one. The county should feel it fair to pay 100 cents on the dollar to' educate their children. The city asks them to bear only their proper share. The Warden assured the delegation that their cause was worthy of con- sideration and that it would be placed in the hands of the proper committee. The deputation from the collegiate schobl board was headed by Mayor Petrie, representing the city. He stat ed that it had been found necessary to build a new collegiate institute, and that as about 34 per cent of the pupils attending the institute came from the In answering questions raised by the councillors, President Burgoyne stated' that the Society held two exhi- bits at a total cost of about $3,400. The fall exhibit costs aboutl $1,200 and about $800 of this is required for fruits and vegetables. The _ money mainly goes tor prizes. He further stated that the annual June exhibit would be held in about two weeks and that it promised to be the best that has ever been held here. Ald. Eagle and and Westwood, as members of the Society, hoped the council could see their way clear to make a grant. ' On Thursday afternoon the County Council received delegations from the St. Catharines and Lincoln County Horticultural Society and the Collegi- ate school board. Ald. Wiley, as a member of the So- ciety, stated that the advertising which the Society‘did for the county, in beautifying it and holding these ex hibits should alone be worth a grant trom the council. The stranger visits our county and he is surprised at the fruits and flowers which we can grow. The Society desires to make the city beautiful. It is a) pleasure to show our beauty spots to,our visitors, and this society is known all over the county." F Discussion than arose as to whether or not the council should meet on Thursday, it being the king’s birth- day and it was firra'ily decided that the Council should meet and go on with their work so as to finnish up this week. The council then adjourned. President Burgoyne, of the Horti- cultural Society, made an earnest ap- plication for financial assistance. He suggested that the council grant the Society the sum of $200. He told ot the splendid work of the society, its exhibitions, etc., and stated that this year they intended to combine a fruit exhibit with the regular fall exhibit, as it was almost certain that'the ar- moury could be used at that time. He further suggested that the money be granted on condition that the fruit exhibit be held. ,He stated in closing that the society was endeavoring to keep up the qualityof their exhibits so that the good name it had won would be maintained. f l adopted Councillor Bush stated that the com mittee' had received legal advice on the subject and they were advismrto adopt the report; He therefore want- ed. the report adopted as it stood. Councillor Jroper stated that if this was the case the yeas and nays on the Councillor Mayer was surprised that Councillor Bush should raise an amendment as he stated that it was good when questioned on the subject before the opening of the ses- s1on. Councillor Fleming could not agree with the chairman. He thought that the majority of the committee were of the opinion that they were legally bound to accept the report; He asked that this fact be put in the report. Moved in amendment by Councillors Bush and Claus that the report be re- ferred back with instructions to strike out all words after "adopted." The report of the committee of the whole was presented by Chairman Moyer. It read as follows: Your committee having carefully examined the auditors' report, recommend that the same be adopted, but that the various recommendations and state- ments, some of which seem to your committee to be somewhat exeraneous, b ereferred to the various committees concerned. As there was no further business the Warden left the chair. The coun- cil met in'commfttee in the morning and went into session again in the afternoon.
