A byâ€"law to prouvide for the cost of of street oiling and cleaning by specialâ€" ly assessing propertiee abutting on streets so treated, is being considered by the town council. The byâ€"law was read at the special meeting of Councii on Monday night but no action was taken. "It has been suggested, in view of the fact that we want better streets in Timmins‘"‘, said the Mayor, "that this byâ€"law be passeud. At present those people in the outlying districts do not receive the benefits of oiling and washâ€" ing. Oiling is only beneficial if it is done from sidewalk to sidewalk and it is only fair that those who benefit by this should pay for it." The Mayor added that the additionâ€" al tax would amount to only a few dollars on each lot. The same prinâ€" ciple would be applied with regard to washing streets. A byâ€"law providing for the issuing of $15,000 worth of debentures, at an interest rate of four per cent over a ten year period, was ~passed. The money will be used to construct a town garage and to buy property for a town dump. The byâ€"law was approved by the ratepayers at the last mumcipal election. Also being considered is an edict which would forbid merchants and householders to sweep rubbish out on the street and into the gutter A copy of the financial statement of the Town will be placed in the public library in "ordéer to ‘give ratepayers an opportunity of seging it. At the regular meeting of Council members of the Court of revision will be appointed. As there are only four members of the Council and five are necessary for the court an outside man will have to be appointed. A technical byâ€"law was passed transâ€" ferring a small piece of property in the ball park to the Timmins Townsite Company Limited.

"I did not put it there but if it had been found what could I say if I were brought before a magistrate. I would only have been able to say that I did not know it was there."

Fort Erie Timesâ€"Reviewâ€"Among othâ€" er things that Canadians have difficulâ€" ty in digesting is the difference in the price of certain commodities here and across the lire.

In other words by crossing theâ€"river one gets 222 matches for a cent, while on this side they cost one cent for 36 matches. The answer of course is the excessive excise tax.

School Boards Objected, He ays. Published at Timmins, Ont., Canada. Every MONDAY and THURSDAY Both delegates denied that Mr. Neame had ever attended a meeting of thgir organizations. ‘"Well what has been done is done," said Councillor McNeil. "We are getâ€" ting nowhere this way. I think Mr. Dunlop‘s suggestion for a joint meeting a good one." "It is very much to the advantage of the dentists to have Timmins youngâ€" sters come to their offices and become dental minded," said His Worship. "They will benefit tremendously and will get a handsome return in the fuâ€" ture." The Mayor thaught that if the Red Cross gave equipment and the Town the space in which to set it up the dentists should be willing to give their services. Mr. Dunlop: "None have volunteerâ€" ed." He suggested a joint meeting of the Council, the school beards, the Board of Health, the Red Cross and the Dental Society to iron the matter out. Then did the Mayor again advance his contention that the school boards upset the matter in the first place. Both delegates denied that they knew anyâ€" thing of any upset or refusal and asked the Mayor where he got his informaâ€" tion. He was told, he said, by Mr. Austin Neame. "Well," said the Mayor. "The Board of Health is a different and independâ€" ent body from the Council. We can‘t interfere with them." _ followed.some.rather trenchant discussion as to whether or not the Board of Health came under the sway of the Town Council and to what exâ€" tent. The Mayor reiterated his statement that the Town had the machinery for a .dental clinic ready to go into motion and that the monkey wrench was thrown into it by the Public School Board. "Now the Board want us to take charge again, but in a different way," said the Mayor. Both School Board representatives were agreed that it would be better to have the dentists treat the children in their offices than in a clinic set up in the Town Hall. The Mayor did not agree. He believed that clinic to be a muniâ€" cipal affair and municipally operated, said Mr. Dunlop. The Board he reâ€" presented was willing to assist finanâ€" cially but would like to see the Council or the Board of Health handle the administration. Another objection to the Council administering which was advanced by the Mayor was that the Town Fathers had no specific knowledge of the pupils. The School Board, on the other hand, had records of all the pupils, where they lived and what their parents did. Recently he was talking to the Mediâ€" cal Officer of Health, Dr. McInnis, who told him that there was room in the Town Hall, said Mr. Dunlop. Then he was talking to two members of the Dental Society who told him that they would rather work in their offices. They agreed to supply all of the maâ€" terial and work for $12 for a half day, Said Mr. Dunlop. They could hrandle six children in a half a day. Mayor Bartleman prefaced the disâ€" cussion with the explanatory remarks that the Council had approached the Red Cross last year and been offered a dental chair. The Town had offerâ€" ed to place it in the clinic in the Town Hall and when the Council heard that the School Boards wanted to take care of dental work themselves, so the whole matter was called off. Later the Dental Society was apâ€" proached and all of the dentists agreed that they would rather work in their own offices, where they were near their equipment and knew where to find everything. _ At a special meeting of Council, held on Monday evening, a deputation conâ€" sisting of Public School Board repreâ€" sentatives J. Simpson and P. J. Dunlop, the representative of ‘the Separate School Board, came to ask what was being done about the dental clinic. Dispute between the Council ind reâ€" presentatives of the Public School Board and the Separate School Board regarding a dental clinic for Timmins children will be.ironed out when a joint meeting of the Council, the Board of Health and representatives of the school boards are present.
