Even after the investigation police were still confounded by the happening which had apparently occurred for no reason at all, At first it was thought that a stone or some other object had been thrown through the window by someone but after a thorough inspection of the interior of the vehicle no object capable of doing the damage was found. The driver of the truck told po- lice that he had hide 3 turn gaat onto Dundas at the four corn and that he had hardly proceeded any distance along the thorough- fare when the window suddenly shattered. Following police investigation the driver continued on his way but there was a great deal of head shaking on the part of local officials who were faced with a problem which they couldn't solve.

Secretary of the school obard asked the ratepayers to express themselves at the next meeting as to the needed improvements to be made at the school. According to announcement the Pres. introduced two spokesmen for the Hospitalization schemes now be- before the public. Mr. O'Brien re- | ¢ presenting the Community Associ- | ates Ltd. of Toronto in a short ad- 'dress outlined the history of the mqve and its great recent growth in popular support. There are many companies operating with a variety of fees and with wide limitations. Today the policies are better than they have ever been and the tend- ency will likely be to decrease be- nefits. His company used the po- licies of the Occidental Insurance Co. of California, The actual cost of hospitalization ran around $24 per person and they coynted upon one in ten insured people becoming hospital cases each year. The aver- age hospital tenure is about 9 days. Mr, Nutt represented the Blue Qross Insurance which is wholly a group plan where 40% of the insur- able members of the group must enroll to get the low rates that are given by this popular plan which has already one million policies in force in Ontario. It is backed by the Hospitals and is really an Ontario hospital plan. It is now 6 years old. He claimed that it was the fastest growing movement on the continent. It was a non-profit orzawzation and approved by the Ontario De. partment of Health: It did not cover X-rays or doctors' bills, Tliey make no examination and it covers every- thing. - As each speaker was given good attention and as each answered many questions asked by the listen- ers, much clarity was given to each plan 'and the generally good fea- tures of some form of hospitaliza- tion became apparent to all. The costs of each plan were given and circulars passed gave the details. It was decided that any conclu- sions in the matter would come at the May meeting when every mem- ber of the community is urged to be in attendance and show their in- terest in whatever plan they favor although nothing is compulsory. If the Club members would like a group insurance the rates would be comparatively low in the Blue Cross. Francis Willson was present and repeated his championship address which was well received.
