stouffville will receive a supply of electric energy this sum mer provided the people sanction the bylaws enabling our council to secure the electricity for us local hydro engineer stocking met reeve morden and the members of council on monday afternoon when the engineer formally submit ted an estimate of 70 per horse power for 75 hp to come from yonge street in quoting this rate mr stocking explained that 70 was merely an estimate and if it is found the actual cost is 60 that is what the town would pay likewise if the cost of construction were so high that power costs were 80 then that would be the rate the idea is that hydro must be sold at actual cost to the municipality mr stocking explained that in 1919 an estimate was prepared as to cost of rebuilding the town street lines at 9000 but this might be considerably less today as costs had dropped since that time he thought the charge to consumers in this town would be much the same as in t h and sarah ratcliff graduate

coal oil and candles while council solve employment problem personal notes whereas it is necessary for the said corporation to reconstruct re pair and extend its present electric light system in the said village of stouffville to properly carry and distribute hydro electric power and whereas in order to enable the said corporation to reconstruct repair and extend the said electric light system it will be necessary to raise the sum of 1100000 by way of debentures and whereas it is desirable to make the principal of the said debt repayable by annual instalments during the period of fifteen years next after the issue of the deben tures such instalments of principal to be of such amounts that the ag gregate amount payable for princi pal and interest in any year shall be equal as nearly as may

principal boadways drug store stouffville chiropractor i church st i fifmtarthti is 7c per kwh against our rate at present in effect in respect to a minimum rate the engineer was firmly of the opinion that 75c would be the charge and in no case would it exceed 100 this was an important pronounce ment as the opinion has gone abroad that no user would receive a bill for less than 200 whereas no one is likely to object to a 24 j vised assessment roll hour service at 100 as a minimum j charge after hearing the engineer the council passed a resolution request ing the hydro commission to furnish new plans and estimate for recon structing the lines within the cor poration it was also decided to submit a money bylaw and an en abling bylaw to the ratepayers now advertised in this issue the tribune s while the money bylaw provides for 11000 for rebuilding the lines nually in each year for the period of fifteen years during the currency of the debentures to be issued under this bylaw the sum of 109587 for paying the several instalments of principal and interest and whereas the amount of the whole ratable property of the said municipality of the village of stouffville according to the last re for the year 1922 is the sum of 53060100 and whereas the amount of the existing debenture debt of the said municipality is the sum of 4830999 and no part of either principal or interest is in arrears therefore the percy stover has been th means of spreading many a ray of light in the homes of- our citizens by means of his position as engineer of the local electric light plant but while percy i6 an adept in spreading light hes also a humdinger in broadcast ing darkness which was shown on monday night when percy jumped the job of operating the plant with such suddenness that reeve mor den was stunned and alex scott chairman of the light committee is still gasping for breath councillor silversides when the show down came was ready to knock the job down to the lowest bidder who wan ted work while messrs lee and beebe are yet to be heard from while the citizens grouped in dark ness council was burning coal oil in an effort to solve the difficulty late monday night albert dike of mount albert a veteran in running gas producer en gines volunteered to help the town out on tuesday when he got on the job water pipes were frozen up and in his effort to start the lights he was overcome with gas and was removed to the hotel at the time of writing mr dike was felling bet ter and expected to resume the job the whole dispute was one of wages mr stover is paid 1200 a year rain or shine light or no light but he states that a former council promised him an increase to 1500 a year and this request was asked of the present council who had j f ailed to discuss the matter in council as a means of bringing them to time quickly mr stover i handed over we are sorry to note the severe illness of mrs and miss silversides this week mrs dorin woodburn of toronto was the guest of mr and mrs
