the toronto marlboros last week in gait toronto sports writers with only one or two exceptions have been nearly turning themselves in side out in making excuses for their pet marlies but the fact

church on thursday march 17 under the auspices of the band of wiling auspices of the band of willing supper from 6 to s oclock hands off might he a fitting title of a protest sent to the tribune by an unknown author in writing against the removal of the alarm bells at the cnr crossing having spent over 2000 for an alarm system why should the railway board be asked to take them down is the question plump ed up to us in serving a rather bitter protest it may he true that a former council recommended the signal system and many people commended them for it but now it is found the bells annoy at least one or two householders and ring unnecessarily at long intervals the whole question has been referred to the dominion railway board but what do they know about the situa tion at stouffville to give an intelligent order to leave the bells up or take them down would necessitate hearing evidence of people who are affected and who are familiar with the dangers of this railway crossing the trouble aroused over this matter impresses on reeve wcldon the truth of the saying unhappy is the head that wears the crown markham village council has baulked on paying a premium of 300 for public liability insurance and well they may rates for this class of insurance are steadily in creasing too many villages place insurance of this nature then allow dangerous sidewalks and other traps to exist in the village feeling se cure that should an accident happen the insurance company will take care of it in tho long run the mun icipality must pay rates that will cover all this trouble plus a prem ium of profit the rates are gauged on amunicipality according to the on actuarial figures the more accidents in the villages of ontario the higher the cost markham vill age has been comparatively free from accident claims still she must pay her proportionate cost the question the villages fathers and reeve hisey has to consider is why markham is called on to pay 300 while another town gets a coverage for 100 great precautions have to be taken these days when citizens can success with a claim for damages on the most fllmpsy charge st patrick sociali the stouffville junior farmers club are
