wage is so small that they put off engaging of a physic clan when he Is really needed and then many a lid is sum moned it Is too late to save life The appointment of a Community Nurse would give a ray of hope to many a discouraged life and he was sure that the Town of Newmarket would stand wildly behind such an appointment Rev Lawrence thought that sufficient had been said to convince Council of the needs for an ap pointment If the members had been following the trait of the and suf fering as the ministerial brethren had done they would require no further evidence of the good to be accomplish ed Mr A Cornell had observed the work of the nurses In connection with the schools and he regarded that they gave very efficient service The of personal teeth and bad throat had brought be fore the children In a way that they would not forget it and he was euro that a constant the employ Of the Town would be a great benefit to children of age and they would come In better shape Mr peatson said that lie had been sounding opinion In tho mat ter and while he found a largo body in favor of the nurse there was also a Targe body In doubt about it thought he had given notice of a mo tion to coma up later he moved that the Council place Itself on record In favor of a nurse for the period Of three months It requires the sym pathy and aid of all the people to make this a success felt sure that

graduating In June and If not satisfied with the present appointment would be n good many from Seeing of of who are in favor of appointment Mr was willing to give It a trial Mr Mortimer thought that the ap pointment should bo made for a year as a service gave a person a bolter chance The motion then put and car ried almost unanimously Enquiries Mr Mortimer asked If the Park Wirt prepared to report flic Mayor replied that nothing was ready Mr Osborne asked If there was any provision for a to obtain a license to peddle meat from door to door The lav does not require a license for that

Supervisor for the Town of New- market Mr Cane explained thai his Inden tion is lo engage a man to work olf at small repair woik and when necessary to engage and boss others lie should be at the Council every time It meets to carry out instructions which may he given from time to time and make himself generally useful Mr Keith thought that a of duties should be out so that a person applying would have some idea of what was required of him and suggested that the Chairmen of the Standing Committees would perhaps know best what is required motion was referred accord ingly the Special to report at next rfeetlng of Counoil Mr Mortimer moved that a Special Committee composed of the Mayor Osborne and the mover be appointed to report at- next meeting of Council on the advisability and

levy for this Item as the and Water account were- ex pected to take care of themselves Mr Pearson explained that tho main was enlarged for Fire Protection and that It was unfair that water should have to pay for It Mr that lb bo raised by debenture over period of five yearn instead of paying it all at once Mr Keith could be In cluded in the Debentures to be issued for the improvement Main Street peculiar grading Main Street was cause of ex penditure The Town should cither pa for this out of general or else the amount charged to the Town for Fire Protection will have lo tic Increased He thought this be struck out of the report and let Finance Committee deal with matter later This suggestion carried and the re port as amended was As Town Clerk Anderson showed signs of Illness he was

there is an amendment before the House calling for a vote of no If that resolution does not actually pass Government ma jority will be shown in Us real strength by tho vote Pairs have been out off by Hie Liberals except In case of absolute necessity and therefore Government talks of which are to include early Saturday sittings and other dread things Mackenzie King Leader of the Opposition moved en amend ment to the address In reply to the speech from the Throne that Parliament and the country had loaf confidence in the present ad ministration and calling for an early general election Mr Kings fol lowers all standing solidly behind that amendment and with the ex ception of one the crossbenchers and the Farmers will probably line up behind it also The one exception Is Mr who broke loose from the Liberal ranks during the recess Who sought In an impassioned speech to Justify his so doing by turning on his former associates and verbally tearing Ihem limb from limb Then he supplied the motive for former denunciation of the Liberals when he launched into personal on a number of his former friends an1 washed all dirty party linen he could Mr in a prophetic strain spoke of himself as a John Ihe Bap tist standing In he wilderness and preaching the gospel of man of tolerance who was to from among his own people the minority and rule the country leading it to con unHy and prosperity Per haps the scriptural allusion was not so good as it might have been since John the Baptist ended up with his head on a silver platter and did not himself see the promised land Hon who was attached by Mr will probably reply In the course of a day or so but the former Liberal from by his venomous attack on former comrades killed much of the effect of his explanations The present session Is quite a dif ferent thing from the tame affair of recent years From Ihe second day the fat was in the fire wllh a fighting speech by the Liberal Leader in which he condemned the Government for hanging on to office when the people through the length and breadth of the country were de manding an opportunity of voicing their pleasure at the polls and for throwing aside the spirit of the law for the purpose of hanging on to the last day allowed by the letter people in 1917 thought they were electing patriots Mr King de clared but they Instead they had load- their shoulders with a veritable old man of the sea a burden they could not off until the burden wan ready to be shaken Instead of electing patriots for the winning of the war Ihe people found they had a crowd of office holders to whom the glories and fruits of high positions were of more importance were the thoughts and wishes of those whom they were supposed repre sent Premier Meighen replied In his usual incisive manner but when he had said

here Looking over tho sealing in the Commons chamber during the past week the weakness of the Govern ment has been apparent At almost any time during the week there more members of the combined op- position present than were there Government jnembcro and a vote on any question might have de feat There was a fairly close call when the Government speakers in the de bate nearly petered out and Oxford had to Jump Into the breach and keep tilings goings until reinforcements were brought up The Liberals demanded a vote on the amendment and the Speaker was reaching for the Question when Mr took his stand and talked around things for half an hour or so until the House was fairly well filled up again As a result of that there has ban a reading of the Act to the Gov ernment supporters At a caucus was laid before them and were Informed that if the Government was to hang on for another year or so as It hopes to do it would be necessary for everyone le stick on the Job and forego of the holidays Ihey had been accustomed to taking in the past The Liberals at a during the week decided against allowing pairs- and the Government professed great indignation Cut any other course on the part of the opposition would have been unwise At the wme lime they were agreeable to pairing wherever such was Their object was to prevent the Govern ment voting men who perpetually stayed out of ihe Houseduring the session and attended to their own business white making member ship here a sort of aide And there are number of those on the Government of the chamber The fight In ihe Commoo3 has well begun and the Indications are that it will be continued until the last day of the session for the opposition with a new fire In their eyes since their recent successes In the and they show every evid ence of being determined to give the Government no chance of hanging on any longer than is absolutely Robt J 35 years old foreman on the Ship Canal was kilted in fall at lock W editor of the Stratford
