rebate to every user of current in any form domestic commercial or power a rebate ot ten per cent of the total net bills paid in the ear 1933 thus the more you paid into hydro in 1933 the larger will be your particular rebate the decision to make the rebate is the result of adopting the recom mendation of the h e pc report which included this recommendation for the purpose of disposing ot a surplus of some 1300 accumulated in addition there is a slight lower ing of the second rate for domestic use from 15 to 13 and a drop in street lamps from 14 to 13 per year flat heaters also cbme in

of previous chautauqua enter tainment heard here in other years the musical program monday after noon and the lecture t dr hsioh pronounced shea were of such standard as could not be brought to small communities unless some generous hearty citizens sponsored the affair as they have done in this instance the lecture of dr hsieh on the orient was instructive and in formative coming from a man from the orient who has no pier among hi3 countrymen as a scholar and diplomat the large attendance at mondays program is sure to be still larger for the second days program on monday oct 15 the afternoon will be a musical feast while in the evening a play grumpy by pro fessional players will be given it is hoped the citizens will stand well behind the chautauqua guaran tors who only desire to break even while bringing to town a type of entertainment which could not otherwise be heard here in pursuance of his duties as tax collector tor the township ot whitchurch for the year 1933 and which business is now being sharply wound up frank steckley caused to be issued some 25 warrants for these tax arrears over the past few iveeks and all but three of those served made pay ment of the taxes due this is a re markable record and causes one to wonder why these ratepayers allow ed tho matter to stand until such added costs were put on before pay ment was actually made in all over 2000 was collected from the warrants issued by bailiff alt pugh the three who failed to make payment on demand or under any arrangement that the bailiff could offer were seized for taxes it should not be presumed that the collector has been unduly hard in making collections as he is really being censured by some for alleged leniency the fact is however that in all these cases where strenuous efforts were taken to make collec tion the collector was under cumpulsion from either the mort gagee or landlord who had warned the collector that he was not to allow tax arrears to be charged against the lands in such cases there is no alternative other than to seize provided there is sufficient goods on the premises- to distrain failure to make collection under these conditions might render the collector liable for the amount to the municipality wjll mystery man stalk the local streets council may declare war on bootleg joints matters transacted at october meeting with the churches
