R. Daniel presiding. The Lions Club asked for a refund of rental of the town hall for their recent Bingo. This was done on reso­ lution of Councillors Watson and' Murray. All committees reported recom­ mending payment of accounts, ex­ cept the Police Committee which also recommended that Chief of Police Alex. Callander, be paid ten days’ salary in lieu of holidays, he having returned from his vacation to go on duty owing to illness in the home of one of the Constables. Mayor Daniel asked MayoY-elect Riley to take the chair and he spon­ sored u resolution which was sec­ onded by ex-Mayor J. G. Murray to fix a salary for the mayor of Inger­ soll. The resolution reads: “Due to the amount of time required of the mayor in connection wjith municipal work and also the number of boards and commissions which the mayor is an ex-officio member and which also entails considerable time; be it there­ fore resolved that the Mayor of the Corporation of the 'To'wn of Inger­ soll, be paid an annual salary of $400 per yftar, commencing 1st January, 1945. All members of the council spoke highly in favor of the fixing of a sal­ ary for the mayor which is a raise of $280 over what he now receives. It was pointed out that the Mayor has five or six times as many calls on his time than a councillor and this amount will assist him in “breaking even” after his year of service to the municipality. Following the adjournment, Mayor Dariiel entertained the members of council and the press representa­ tives at his home on Albert street The Mayor and Mrs. Daniel proved to be excellent hosts and a very pleasant social evening was spent A delicious lunch was served by Mrs. Daniel and afterwards brief ad­ dresses were given in appreciation of Mayor Daniel's work during the past two years.

Re Taylor waa the chairman A number of unusual questions have come up for decision!, all of which were made after full discus­ sion either around this board or in the committee stage, and I believe experience has shown that they were wise decisions. At this point I would like to express my apprecia­ tion of the way you have conducted your discussions, it certainly has helped yoty chairman. It was with regret we learned that we would lose the services of Dr. H. B. McKay. He has been a valued member, his work on the Prize Com­ mittee and arranging for the Com­ mencements has been excellent, we shall miss him very much, you, Dr. McKay, for all you done, you have served the Meats and meat products exported from Canada during the year ended March 31, 1944, show an increase of •308,456,214 pounds, or about 34 per cent, over the total of the preceding year, the number of animals slaugh­ tered under inspection was 2,408,615 in excess of that the year before. The first flour mill in Canada was built at Port Royal, now Annapolis Royal, Nova Scotia, in 1607. The details of the increased grant from the Government have not been sent down yet, but there is no doubt that it is a step in the right direct­ ion, lifting some of the burden from local real estate and placing it on the general tax body. It is following the example of Great Britain and other countries, and the O.E.A. has been asking for it for some years. The' Minister of Education is to be com­ mended, for implementing his elect­ ion promise. We have not made as much pro­ gress with plans for a now Colleg­ iate as I would have hoped, but may­ be with other post-war plans under consideration that is just as well. But I do think as e ' first step we should be agreed as to the best poss­ ible site, in order to have a logical starting place for plans. It has oc­ curred to me as. to whether the building of an addition to Memorial School at the Kindergarten windows would not provide the central audit­ orium for the community, and at the same time give an assembly hall and a gymnasium for the public school which is very desirable with the large enrollment that they have there. It is regrettable that there is not a Home and Schood Club function­ ing here through which the public Iwould become acquainted with some! of our problems. An organization of this kind would, I feel, be a great I asset to our community. It is a great satisfaction to me to know that at last we have Religious' Education, or Bible Study, as I would prefer to call it in the cur-1 riculum. This was a long time over­ due and while it is only in the first two grades now—I expect it will be extended next fall. If you had read the Teachers’ Manual prepared by the Department, I am sure you would agree that they have made a sound start and absolutely non-de- nominational. We still have our local clergy generously giving of their time, for which we are very grate- The export market for Canadian flour found its first impetus in the French Revolution and Napoleonic wars. Between 1793 and 1808, flour exports averaged 18,000 barrels a year. The exports of the crop year, 1943-44, attained a record of 13.6 million barrels, which eclipsed the former highest record of 12.6 million barrels in 1942. sung, led by Mrs. Charles Smith in between numbers of the reels of pic­ tures.

Two beautiful duets were sung by Mrs. F. N. Horton and Mrs. E. Deamude, “While Shepherds Watched”, and "Sleep Holy Babe.” Special mention was made of an old and honored member, Mrs. F. P. Leake, who recently passed away. Much planning was done for the Christmas baskets, -which are to be packed Friday, Dec. 22nd, in the Market Building. There are many more than usual this year so the Circle is hoping for a generous re­ sponse from interested friends. Mrs. Rich was appointed represen­ tative of the Circle to act on the Ingersoll Citizens’ Rehabilitation Committee.

There is another man to whom I am particularly indebted and I think you know to whom I refer. With his wealth of experience his unas­ suming manner and very helpful nd vice, Mr. McLeod has been a tower of strength to me, as indeed he is to the whole Board. As the duties of his office keep multiplying, I think the time is not far distant when we shall have to make the Sec­ retary-Treasurer a full-time posi- The teaching staff should be com­ mended for remaining Jayal to-us during difficult times. This period has taught us to more fully appre­ ciate our teachers and to value their services more highly. It was pleas­ ing to know that some were taking summer courses. I think all teachers should take additional instruction as favourable opportunities present themselves. Teaching, above any other profession, is progressive and no teacher'can afford to stand still. I feel that we have largely a pro­ gressive staff and in that connection a word or two about our trwo princi­ pals. We are indeed fortunate to have men of the calibre of Messrs. Brogden and Murray. They are of the progressive type and real lead­ ers. The guidance course that Mr. Murray took last summer is going to pay dividends I am sure. He will be telling you more bf that next 'year. It has been a pleasure to work with these two gentlemen. During the year I have tried to draw the teach­ ing staff and the Board a little closer together, feeling that as we became better acquainted we would understand each other's problems more fully and be able to assist better in the furtherance of our common aim.
