The tax rate for public school supâ€" porters in 1917 was 45 mills, and for separate school supporters 42 ‘mills. At that time the rate was considerâ€" ed high, but the town then did not have all the advantages and improveâ€" ments of toâ€"day. In 1917 in addition to the fact that the rate was increased over the previous year, there was the fact that the assessment had also been materially increased. Discussion at the council was all along the line that the high tax rate was beyond the conâ€" trol of the council. Ten years ago there was a labour strike at Pierce‘s mill, the twentyâ€" five men employed quitting work in a body because they wanlge(l a nineâ€" hour day instead of a tenâ€"hour one. Mr. Pierce went down to the mill as soon as he learned of the trouble and addressed the men. He explained that the season here was so short that advantage had to be taken of every possible working hour. He would like them to work more than the ten hours, if they would, but he was willâ€" ing to pay and pay well. It was only a question of doing the best possible with the short season. As soon as the men understood that situation, they agreed to resume work. As a conâ€" sequence the whole staff was back at. work in the afternoon. and everything went along fine.
