reduced assessments on this land if something isnt done declared reeve timbers councillors cited many in stances of large acreages that had been completely denuded of top soil the township en gineer stated that such a prac tise immediately created a drainage problem as there was a much greater runoff when there was no top soil i think we should try and start a movement to have gov ernment legislation introduc ed which would give us the power to prohibit selling top soil said reeve timbers a resolution was passed in structing the clerk to write to the various conservation au thorities and seek to bring in prohibitive legislation through the department of lands and forests it was reported that mr ar nold who proposes to establish a million dollar subdivision on the corner of the 1th

markham tp council on monday evening as it was revealed that a travel ling evangelist mr barrett had been ordered to pack up and get outof gormley where he was conducting a street meeting mr barrett appeared before council tusking for permiss to return to gormley but no de cision was voiced by council pending a full written report from the police on the affair mr barrett told council that he operated with a loud spea ker system which he was able to tone down quite low ifnece ssary he stated that he had been to gormley twice but or tiie second night a mark ham police officer ordered him j to pack up and move on i asked him if it would be all right if i just toned down the loud speaker but he told me no that id have to get out said mr barrett the meeting was being held near the cnr crossing and there was a barn dance going on right across the road which was making lots of noise the evangelist said it was revealed that a lette had been sent to mr hoover township clerk concerning the speaker but the letter had not appeared at council why wasnt this letter read this is a very serious matter v said deputyreeve lemasurier the letter had only been addressed to mr chas hoov er and he claimed it could be interpreted either for him or the council mr hoover said he did not have the letter with him but would go home and get it if council demanded regardless it should have been brought to this council continued the deputyreeve i read the letter and i be lieve it was just addressed to mr hoover said reeve tim bers as the deputyreeve and the clerk waxed hot over the subject 1 think this calls for a full report from the police com mented councillor lennie i may not agree withyour doctrines im not interested but this is a free country and you certainly cant stop peo ple from speaking said depu tyreeve lemasurier there was considerable dis cussion over the matter and it was pointed out that the noise of the loud speaker appeared to be the chief objection the clerk stated that he believed the police had received a couple of complaints about the loud speaker well that was no reason to chase the man away i think theres more to this than just the noise and we belter find out what it is declared coun cillor hooper deputyreeve lemasurier gave promise of a police re port in writing he is chair man of the police committee the travelling preacher re vealed that that he was con nected with the pentecostal church and said that he could bring in rev nosworthy from markham tqsubstantiate his claims polio fatal to 10yearold at bloomington richard lewis 10 year old son of mr
