tion system in stouffville in fact the demand is becoming sufficiently pressing that we predict that in another year the council will have to give the matter serious consider ation the town of uxbridge recent ly inaugurated such a service and other towns enjoy it consequently it should not be beyond the possibili ties of stouffville especially for six months of the season when fires are out and there is no convenient way to dispose of rubbish and table refuse there are two methods by which such a system can be oper ated onevisto make the collection general and charge the total cost to each property owner on an equal house basis and a second method is j to require those wishing to use the system to sign a petition authorizing council to charge it to their taxes as a local improvement richmond hill tried the latter plan but found it difficult with people dropping out and other constant changes if a garbage system is necessary to the health of the cbm munity the most satisfactory- plan is to make a weekly collection of the whole town and charge the cost to the general tax rate if the col lections confined to six months of the year the undertaking would not be prohibitive from a financial stand- although it might mean a mill on the tax rate the tribune would ba glad to hear the views of taxpayers on this question and would be pleased to publish any such

canadians are look ing forward to a substantial reduc tion in income taxes to be announc ed when parliament meets in august as a forerunner of what may happen it is said that the re duction will beonlyon a percent age basis jn the lower- brackets and if that is the way the matter is to be handled it will be too bad why take off a percentage of those in the bracket of say 1200 to 1800 and 660 to 900- would it not be better tojexempt this gioup entirely if thereductionis on a basis of- say 50 per- cent then the cost of collection onthe remaining half would be out of proportion to the benefits received by the dept if this group is dropped entirely probably 40000 or 50000 less forms will go in tothe income tax dept and what a lot of work would be saved if that many forms were eliminated annually if the govern ment only gives a percentage off these smaller returns then they will still have to be handled and checked at acosfalmost asgreat as the gross receipts receivedfrom

stouffville was forced to send bruce lehman to the mound lehman was just beginning his climb to the top then and while he pitched well the team lacked drive and punch and dropped the close series the oakville team went on to eliminate picton in the finals so there was little doubt that fate did stouffville out of- an honor long overdue at that time there will be no further meetings of the
