received bills from so many road divisions which overran their appropriation in one ease this was as much as one hundred per cent and downward council asked the press to inti mate that road foremen must not exceed the appropriation made to their respective division without permission briefly the practise is that the whitchurch township council tour the township early in the summer meeting road foremen and deciding on how much money can be spent in this or that division council have a limited amount to spend and they try to spread this to the best advant age now in comes the bills for the work decided on and this that and the other division is found to have spent much more titan their allot ment thus the warning now issued that road foremen must keep within the bounds of the money set apart for their division the treasurer presented his half- yearly statement showing that up to july 31 there had been expended thus far on roads and bridges this year the sum of 1392593 and the council proceeded to strike the various rates for the current year reported elsewhere in this issue c w davidson of mount albert wrote on behalf of wm smockum asking that council restore the water

of markham- and union ville this piece of road forms part of the government highway running from montreal to windsor the changes on this short stretch is be ing made for the purpose of widen ing and straightning the road and the expenditure is reported to be so000 most of the money will be consum ed in the section just west of union ville where the roadway will be en tirely changed the winding road on the east side of the cement bridge will be eliminated altogether and the new road will follow the present creek bed down in the flats the course of the creek will be changed also the worst fault most people had with this winding road was not that it was like unto a corkscrew but rather that it was dangerously narrow at the markham end the road will follow a course through where the anglican church stands thus elimin ating the bad corner at this point lemonville mr and mrs ed barkey and florence spent sunday in stouff ville mr and mrs momaster and fam ily spent civic holiday with

farm hand assaulted one of our farmers because he took the man to task for giving tobacco to his son aged nine years the farm hand went at it with a pitch fork and near ly took the eye out of our farmer the aggressor was allowed to go with an apology a reference to the township by laws indicate that cattle must not run at large on the public highways without a herdsman evidently some of our good people overlook this re gulation when they allow their cattle to roam at large we have no boule vards to destroy but some fine gar dens have been damaged by the cat tle we expect that after this notice people will have to get out with their lawn mowers and cut the front line- grass next the roadway there was big excitement here on election day the poll when counted showed tour spoiled ballots evident ly deposited in some cases by persons who not understand how to mark a ballot some marked them twice and one not at all the interest shown in the section was not record ed by the order in

whitchurch for year 1930 among the churches whitchurch township council struck the tax rate for 1930 at a regular meeting held on saturday contrary to the general belief that taxes will continue to soar from year to year the township fathers have been able to cut the tax rate this year by ono mill last year the general rate stood at 10 mills and this year it is reduced by two mill but as the county rate and high school rate over which the town ship has no control whatever are advanced a mill the net decreased to the tax payers will be one mill a bylaw confirming this action was passed with all the members present and reeve herman kidd presiding in addition to the various school rates throughout the munici pality the other rates were struck as follows general rate s mills county rate 10 710ths mills high school rate 1 mill3 tho high school attendance rate is a new tax enacted by the ontario government about three years ago it is collected by the county and paid over to the various high schools according to the number of pupils attending these schools from whit church township prior to this law parents paid high school fees for children but now they are permitted to attend high school free the muni cipality paying the charges which amounts to the same thing except ing those who have no children attending school must help pay with those who have the general rate
