no appeal entered against voters lists in whitchurch mnrkhnni or stouffvlllo not a single appeal was filed against the voters lists for the corporation of stouffville or for the townships of whitchurch and mark ham for the year 1926 with the township clerks w h clark and gam davison or with j sdough erty for stouffville since the lists prepared by the township clerks are used only for municipal elections the electors probably do not thing it worth the trouble to enter appeals any more another reason this year for their being no appeals is probably due to the confusion caused by the federal election lists many people completely ignored the local lists in their interest for the elec tion list drs- ira herbert freee consultation hours dr ira freel to 12 am mon wed 4 fri to 9 pm
