lovely sunshine and temper aturc of 70 degrees However they tell us that the cold will be on in way down here short ly While over on the Gulf side of the state at the weekend we met William Emery and his brother who are again having fishermens luck They had been out not more than half mile in the Gulf and come home with over 150 sea trout Their problem was where theycould get rid of so many fish On Monday we met them again and they were about to initiate nnew Ontario arrival who had brought his boat from Seaforth and did not know where to start fishing We invited the Emerys for the coming weekend hoping they would come well stocked with trout They are both in the best of health WOULD PROVIDE WORK Gordon Mason welfare offi cer for lnnislil told council at the inaugural meeting be felt sure that most of those receiv ing welfare would prefer to be doing something in return for funds provided Comments have reached as about the number of relief recipients who come to the office of the welfare offi car with their own car They wonder that funds are available to provide upkeep of these vehi cles It is unfortunate that some method cannot be devised so some return can be made for the funds expended on welfare especially when it involves young single men Many of these would not know how to use an axe or brush saw so that cutting of roadside brush would be loss of time as for asthey are concerned Be sides the snow which by now has filled the roadside brush would make cutting Impracti cal Just what the township would have to offer at this season of the year when frost and snow are predominant can not be suggested Years ago the township bought large wood lot which they still have bug today very few people burn wood and little would be gained by paying to have this cut Cut ting ice has also faded out in the township as have many of the other winter jobs which the hired man performed to earn his keep during the winter Perhaps some of these unem ployed might be capable of

on the tax bills has been demon strated in the council office The firm behind the machine offered loyear guarantee and service at cost of $50 year This could mean the reduction of considerable office staff now required to do these billings when needed After watching the demonstration Council de clded that it was worth while but they would give it few dnys thought It could be that by the time this appears in print the machine will be in stalled When we realize that the Innisfil Credit Union had put in new accountinggmsch ing at similar cost after find ing their used one could not be repaired it seems sensible that the township with the volume of name on their list should feel that such machine would be worthwhile especially if it will perform double duty clam Mr Smith violated his power
