BENTLEY OPTOMETRIST Council Briefs A snow plow for Port Perry is expect- ed to be here about Dec, 16th, 1946, It is a new one with attachments for the front of our own truck. Let's hope it is here in time. No, the garbage collection system has not been decided on yet. There are many items to be considered, such as: (a) What is to be classified as gar- bage; , (b) What about the container pro- blem? (¢) Can the cost be assumed by the taxpayers in general or must each householder be charged individually? (d) Routes to be worked out on a schedule. (e) Will the town dump be restrict- ed to Port Perry only. (f) This Council must either say "yes" or "no"'--before long. The Council is having 'School Signs" made and erected on Queen St., near the school. The construction of a water system for domestic use and fire protection is at present a dead issue. Our town clerk has received instruc- tions from the Council to order suf- ficient street signs to cover all streets intersecting Queen street in the village of Port Perry. This issue has been talked about for a long time, and now it is almost a reality. This by-law is a little old-fashioned but still part of our municipal make- up, and has never been rescinded, or lately enforced. Byrlaw No. 693, dated June, 1914, and states--"No child under 16 years of age shall loiter in any public place within the village of Port Perry after nine o'clock in the evening or be there, unless accom- panied by his parent or guardian'. A delegate from the Post War Citi- zens' Committee met with the Council on November 19th. It was the wish of the delegation to find out if the Coun- cl could purchase land on which the proposed projects are tobe erected. There is a possibility that the people will be asked to vote on this issue be- fore long. " "Contrary to popular belief--a tenant may qualify and be elected for muni- cipal office, Section 52 of The Municipal Act, R.S.0., 1937, Chapter 266. : 1, Every person shall be qualified to be elected a member of the council of a local municipality who,-- (a) is a householder residing in the municipality, or is rated on the last re- vised assessment roll of the municipal- ity for land held in his own right for an amount sufficient to entitle him to be entered on the voters' list and re- sides in or within five miles of the municipality; (b) is entered on' the last revised voters' list as qualified to vote at municipal elections; (¢) is a British subject; (d) is of the full age of twenty-one years; and (e) is not disqualified under this or any other Act, 2, The rating for land shall be in respect of a freehold or leasehold, legal or equitable, or partly of each. 3. "Householder" shall mean the person who occupies and is assessed as owner or tenant of a dwelling or apartment house or part of a--dwaell- ing or apartment house separately oc- cupied as a dwelling. : Remember, it is your duty as a tax- payer to be present at the Nomination meeting. It is your money that keeps the town going; so come and hear how it is spent and why, and a special in- vitation is extended to the ladies. Maybe you will hear a lot of things that you should know.

Lewis, Principal of the Ontario College of Education. In addition to the above, many personal' friends of the family throughout the Province attended the service. The wholly unexpected and untimely death of Dr. Hardy came as a tre- mendous shock to his many friends and acquaintances and was a para- lyzing and heartbreaking blow to his wife and family, all of whom had so faithfully and so unselfishly shared in his successful struggle against ill- ness to become re-established follow- ing his retirement from the Perth Collegiate Institute of which he was Principal, Classical Master, Cadet and Physical Education Instructor for a period of over twenty- three years. last .
