J. HARLOW ™ Building (Continued from page 1) completed house he turned around and rented the shack, He also told of another shack where the owner is endeavoring to start a junk yard. This is on the edge of the playground for the new school being erected in the South Hast Ward. Councillor R, D, Preston maintain- ed that there was no use in building up a by-law if the by-law was not going to be carried out. He men- tioned one case where a man had re- cently moved a building into the fire limits without a permit to cover the work. Mayor John Stacey remarked that he would like to sec every mem- ber of the council in possession of a copy of the present building by-law so that they could study it and see what improvemenis were necessary. Councillor W. J, Trick remarked that this was an important question but that it was simple to draft a hy-law, at the same time gtatinz that 'the building by-law is now useless' It will require a knowledge of engineer- ing and building to draw up this by- law, stated Mr, Trick, who supported Councillor Brown's assertions. Councillor R, D, Preston argued that shacks are necessary in a grow- ing town and claimed that if the council should be "hard" on shacks that it would retard the growth of the town. He stated that a shack should not he looked down upon, pointing out that what is now the Danforth District of Toronto, a few years ago contained numerous shacks. There's a Difference Dep. Reeve J. V, Hill, in opening his remarks, stated that "I notice here that no one seems to take any notice of the poor man." He wanted to know if the council wished to make a poor man pay $35 or $40 a month rent, "Why not let him put up a small home?" questioned the deputy reeve, which immediately brought Councillor A. W. Brown to his feet who pointed out that there is a considerable difference hetween a "small home" and a *'shack." When Councillor W, J. Trick re- marked that areas should be laid out in which certain buildings could not he constructed, the mayor stated that the council could not take any action in that line as it is a matter to be handled by the property owners. Councillor Preston pointed out that if a building by-law were passed ijt would be necessary to have at least one, and possibly two, building in- spectors to see that it was lived up to. On motion of Councillors O. M. Alger and T. Hawkes it was decided to have 100 copies of the present by law printed. These will be dis- tributed to the members of the coun- cil and to any others interested. At the present time there are no copies available for distribution. The let- ter from the Board of Health was re- ferred to the committee. Wm. B.

Davis informed the Reformer yesterday that he antici- pated a record list of entries and that the best collection of horses and cat- tie ever shown in Oshawa would be exhibited this year. A big list of entries already has been filed. The trials of speed should surpass those of former years and all who have geen the racing events will appreci- ate the efforts of the directors to bring the best horses in the country to Oshawa. Inereased purses this year should be a great inducement and many fine horses are expected here to compete for the prize money.

(3) "We recommend that Mr. Ollie Miller be transferred from the Town Clerks' Office to the Town Engineer's Office." The Council in committee of the whole decided to pave Front Street from Albany Street to First Avenue with asphaltic concrete pavement and the town clerk was instructed to take the necessary steps to see that this money was secured from the. provin- cial government, Councillor Moffatt started the dis- cussion on the Front Street paving when he stated that it seemed that nothing was any good in the eyes of the Board of Works unless it originat- ed with them. He stated that the W. E. Phillips company came to Oshawa, with 'strong financial backing and es- tablished themselves here without seeking any favors. They had asked for a pavement on Front Street, but the request was turned down. The Board of Works had said that it would improve the road but nothing further has been dome, stated Mr. Moffatt. Court Street residents had sent in a petition that Court Street be paved and this was turned down. Now the committee comes in and recommends that Court Street be paved. He main- tained that something should be done for the W. E. Phillips company. Councillor W. J. Trick in replying to these remarks stated that the road to the Phillips Company factory needs some attention and it will receive it in the fall. But the road even mow is in fair condition. As for the paving of Court Street the Board of Works thought that it was not worth the cost to grade it and had decided to pave it. Mayor Stacey was of the same opinion as Councillor Moffatt as regards the Phillips company. This discussion had taken place following the reading of the Board of Works report and it was here that Councillors Preston and Burns moved that the council go into committee of the whole on the matter. In conmection with the money that may be received from the provincial government Councillor Moffatt thought that, this should be used to pave Front Street past the property of the Malle- able Iron Works, as a large part of the road to be paved passes by them. Belongs to Whole Town Councillor W. J. Trick, chairman of the Board of Works, did not think that the $3,300 should be used in paying Front Street, he voicing it as his opin- ion that this money belonged to the town as a whole. The Phillips Com- pany, he stated, was certainly entitled to a good road and it was the policy of the Board to give them such' a thoroughfare. Councillor Trick also pointed out that the pavements are be- dng put down under a frontage tax. Two-thirds of the road is mow cin- dered and it is the policy of the Board to cinder the remainder. Councillor Preston stated that the $3,300 had paving Front Street and the mayor Mr. Percy Eagar, of the local office. nothing to do with the question of agreed with him. Mr. Preston couldn't see why one should consider the Malle- able Iron Works in paving this street, When Albany Street was paved for the Malleable no consideration was shown to the residents of Albany Street. Dep. Reeve Hill stated that the | Malleable should pay for the paving and remarked that the Phillips Com- pany was entitled to a paved road. The mayor thought the Malleable could pave the road and referred to the rot- ten condition of the present road in the fall and spring. Councillor Alger moved that the first part of the first clause be struck out and that Albany Street be paved and that the clerk take the usual proceedings to coffect the money from the Ontario Government. Dep. Reeve F. L. Mason then sound- ed a note of warning and asked where the council was going to end its pav- ing program for this year. People are beginning to complain, he stated. Two months ago the council decided it would not consider any more petitions for paving and "here tonight you are {paving a road without any petition." {Councillor O. M. Alger and the mayor |favored having a concrete pavement laid but Councillors Trick, Preston |and Brown were, opposed to concrete {and wanted asphalt. Finally a motion {that Front Street be paved from Al- !bany Street to First Avenue with asph- altic concrete pavement was carried. When the question of transferring Mr. Miller from one department to the other came up for discussion Council- lor Brown stated that he was thorough- ly opposed to changing Mr. Miller. He moved an amendment that this clause be struck out. Councillor Trick stated that Mr. Miller was certainly better the auditor's report, he said, will re- commend that an accountant be ap- ment. port is presented, pointing out. that if is now the only one who could take up qualified for the engineering depart- | ment than the Town Clerk's depart- | ment and while Mr, Hare is not entire- | ly willing to see Mr. Miller moved, still | pointed to work in Mr. Hare's depart- | Councillor Burns thougat it would | be best to wait until the auditor's re- | Mr. Hare should take sick Mr. Miller | He Mr Miller should now be coming to coun- his duties. also stated that cil meetings and relieving Mr. Hare.
