T. Rowe, a member of this year's council, had been elected deputy- reeve by acclamation. J. Milton Kenny, a former reeve, who carlier in the day had qualified as Mr. Rowe's opponent, resigned his nomination just before nine o'clock and took out qualification papers for the office of Councillor. Mr. Kenny's action came in the nature of a surprise 'package to the few citizens: who had assembled in the Town Clerk's office to hear the qualification news. At twenty min- utes to nine it looked as if the clerk would have to call a second nomination to fill seats on the coun- cil board, as only five men had qualified, but a minute or two later Councillor James H. Ormiston came in and filed his papers for re-election to that office. Mr. Kenny followed shortly afterwards and an election for Council was on.

'They are: W. M. Pringle, William Davidsonp Fred Landon, J. Kenny, James H. Ogmiston, Frank Threadgold and George Keil. Mr. Keil is a new man, while Messrs. Kenny and Threadgold have served Council previously. # 1 Trustees Elected There will be no election for school trustees, as the following were declared elected by acclama- tion: Gordon Whitfield, Samuel Kempthorne and Stuart Threadgold.

"It does not hurt them very much," said the doc- tor In addition to disinfecting the area the gasoline removes pieces of dead skin. Tannis acid, which was intro- duced at the hospital for the treatment of burns about eight years ago, is one of the greatest agencies for saving human life suffering from burns yet known to medical science. It also is a great alleviator of pain and unites with the toxins which are thrown off from the burned area. One of the greatest difficulties which the hospital meets in treat- ment of children suffering from such a cause, is the removal of It is therefore very impor- T0 TREAT BURNS Doctor Tells of Difficulties Toronto. -- In a recent case in badly the sion if such candidates are ultj- mately elected, action to unseat them could be brought with fair hope of success.

"While this alleviates the pain to a certain extent, it makes ft very difficult for us to properly cleanse the area burned when the chiid reaches the hospital," he said. The burns themselves never cause death, the doctor explained. Death from such burns as little George Booth received are from three causes, The first danger is shock, which is difficult to ex- plain, but which is undoubtedly partly caused by pain which the patient undergoes immediately after such an accident. The danger from this cause passes away usually within a day or two, but in the meantime there has been another menacing agen- cy at work.

"In fact," she added, as she returned from London whither she journeyed to invite Gandhi to visit htis country, "our work as organizers in India is so strenu- ous that many of our workers welcome a spell in prison, where they can rest." ! Mrs, Ghose's two small daugh- ters, Marian, aged 7, and Lilla Bati, 4, accompanied her on her mission, "They asked him," she said, 'if he would like a pure white goat. He said he would, so we are going to send him two as soon as we find them." Gandhi told her, Mrs. Ghose sald, that he would rather die than change from his loin cloth and shawl into Occidental cloth- ing.
