Another agreed that he had signed the order and was d to have the money taken out. as the rent had to be paild. : Counc.lior Caron was emphatic in saying that the assistant clerk should work for the town or for himself and should not dabble in real estate where h‘s position gave him undue advantage. Fe though the law forbade the buying of tax sale propertes by town employees axnd referred to decisions in this respect Mayor Drew said that the solicitor‘s opinion had been that nothing in the law prevented members of the town staff from purchasing at the tax sale, ‘biit personally the mayor felt that town employees should not mix up in what re-acted on themselves or the cmnfifl notagprmofwwn yees acting as agents for anyâ€" charges The assistant clerk was called before counicil and explained that he collected somerents but not on town time. â€" He ever took any money from relief work heques or any others, except on the order of the tenant. f "I can‘t see how I can redeem.it if I can‘t collect the rent," said Mr. Riard. Mr. Riard then proceeded to suggest that Henry Perreault assistant town clerk, was collecting rents for Mr. Armâ€" strong. This cdllection was done someâ€" times on town time he claimed, and he also asserted that money for rent was held back from relief work wages.. "If the town has its employees collecting ‘rent," said Mr. Riard, "I think they‘ ought to collect for me, too. .I have lost $7,000.00 in rents due and that is why my properties went in\the tax sale" Town Clerk Montgomery said that if the assistant clerk was doing as Mr. R‘ard suggested it was certainly not with his (the clerk‘s) knowledge. If Mr. Perréault went out in the daytime except in town bua.ness, it was news to the clerk. . ‘Marcl Riard called attention of council to the fact that a property formerly owned by him and soldâ€" for taxes was now apparently owned by Mrs. Lavine, though bought at the tax sale by Mr. Desaulniers. He said that that the property had been bought at the sale for less than half the rent owed on it.

The cl_erk said that he had, offered a Mr. Dye said that though there were many here being given free service, the collections were the second best in the V. 0. N. in Canada. 3 Mayor Drew commented on the value of the V. O. N. service to the town, mentioning particularly the benefit of the advice and assistance to mothers by the Victorian Order Nurse. The usual grant of $1,000.00 was passed for the V. O. N. Dr. Honey thought the expenses low in view of the amount of good work done. The Victorian Order of Nurses asked for the usual grant to continpe its work in Timmins.. R. Dye, president of the local V. O. N., in answer to questions, said that the work cost $2,800.00° per year, This was financed by the fees received, the annual tag day and the grant from council. Those who could pay the regular charge for the nurse were asked to pay; if only part of the fee could be paid, this was accepted; and in case the patient could not pay at all, the service was given free. The v.O.N. accordingly was able to carry on, only through the donations made, the tag day and the town grant. , Another relief case was that of a man who had been keeping his cousin but could not continue da‘ng so. The couâ€" sin was ill having just come from the hospital where he had been for two and a half months, The case was referred to the committee for investigation. Councillor Caron spoke on behalf of a young man who was the support of his mother. The relief committee was asked to look in to the case. A widow appealed to councu about her taxes and was told that the bailiff would not bother her further but that it would be well for her to dispose of one of her lots and so be able to keep taxes up on the home property. Mayor Geo. 8. Drew presided at the regular meeting of the town council on Monday afterncor, and Counciliors A. Caron, Dr. Honey, R. Richardson, A. P. Dooley and J. Morrison were present.
