G. Murray aaid today. Dr. Murray said he was taking the action following a survey of indust­ ries and others interested, and thebig majority seem to favor Friday,giving the long week-end, rather than Wednesday, May 24. He pointed out,however, he coultn’t stop anyone tak­ing a holiday May 24 because it was a statutory holiday.The big industries of the town areclosing for Friday, rather than Wed­nesday, and both public and high schools will take Friday instead ofWednesday.The question was brought up at council Monday by Counsellor TomMorrison. Councillor Pembleton saidMorrow’s and the Machine Co. andStones favored closing on Friday. Itwas then left for the mayor to makea check-up of sentiment, and act ac­ cordingly.Council session was attended byhigh school pupils led by PrincipalJ. C. Herbert. Mr. Murray said it was a pleasure to have them, and itwas too bad more adults didn’t takea greater interest in municipal af­ fairs, “for then we would have a farbetter town.”Council received an invitation from Mayor G. A. Wenige of London tohelp entertain the Federation of Ma­yors «nd Municipalities when it metin London next year. Council voted$50 to help out razed Rimouski, andheard from Dr. O. C. Power*, M.O.H.,that complaints about Ingersoll’s dump were being received.“I think you will agree that it isin terrible condition," he said. “Per­ haps council would consider using abulldozer to do a little covering ofgarbage.” Purchase of 20,000 gallons of oil tokeep Ingersoll’s road dust down wasapproved.

Girls Look For Manager Practising regularly, and with apromising crop of new players, theGirls’ Softball nine are showing in­dications of fielding a stronger out­ fit than they did last year. They haveentered in the same league again,with St. Marys, Woodstock, Norwich and other teams. The big problem ishowever, says arena manager LarryHarris is that they haven't a man­ager. Larry has been doing the dut­ ies temporarily but will not be ableto do it all through the season. “Ifanyone feels they can take it on, hesays, “I’ll be only too pleased to hearfrom them."There are worse things than mana­ging a girls’ softball team, you know. Fabulous Gordon Sinclair Is Speaker in Ingersoll 93, and Still Going Strong Tom Brown Is "Western” Fan Ninety-three and still going strongis cheery, active Tom Brown, who lives with his son, Jack, at 120 KingHiram Street. A machinist at theMorrow Co., where his son now works, for most of his life, Tom is an avidreader of western stories. Every fewdays he takes himself off into thefresh air and walks down to Dea- mude’s where he buys the latest yamsand stops for a chat. Usually hestocks up on cigars, cigarette, and tobacco also. He smokes all three, de­claring he likes a change now andthen.” His main delight in winter is theeuchre parties—he is a great cardfan—and he divides his time between this and visits to his next door neigh­bor-Garnet Elliot. Mr. Elliot has alarge greenhouse, the pride of hisoff-duty hours, and Tom. likes nothing better than to slip in there and potteraround too (except, that is, readinga western or going to a euchre party). A native of St. Thomas, he came toIngersoll in 1914, and has lived inthe same house all the time he has been here. Besides Jack he has a sonBart, in St. Thomas, another son,Brock, a soldier wounded in the First World War who has been confined to Westminster Hospital for the last 14years, and' i» daughter Blanche in Windsor. And we’ll bet he is one of the firstto read of his birthday, which incid­entally was on Monday, May 15th,because every Thursday he lays asidehis western and reaches for hi9 Tri­bune, which he reads regularity eachweek.

Gordon Sinclair, of Toronto, one of ithe world’s great travellers, reporters and story-tellers, was a visitor to IIngersoll this,week as guest speaker ion the occasion of the Kiwanis Club’s I annual “ladied night”. iSinclair, who has made more trips ;around the world than the average Ingersollian to Toronto, has seen justabout everything worth seeing, haswritten several adventure books andis now a news commentator overC.F.R.B. In coming to Ingersoll, withhi, wife, to speak, Mr. Sinclair haspaid the community unusual honor,since only rarely does he make aspeech.Here is Sinclair on Sinclair: ‘‘Gordon Sinclair was born in a zoo,of all places, and the geography ofhis birth seemed to affect his whole future because he has been writingand speaking animal stories for mostof his adult life. “As a lad he wa, called Allen, butthat name was soon shunted to secondplace and then abandoned. He waseducated in Toronto, had a brief am­bition to become a doctor and at 22became a reporter for the TorontoStar.“After four uneventful years Sin­clair became woman’s editor for that paper and was probably the worstwoman's editor in Canadian journal­ism. Having never had a sister or awife he knew little or nothing aboutwomen and one day in desperationhis editor told him to go and writesome stories about hoboes.“This began a series of travels;first from Toronto to New York by box car, then overseas as a bootblackaboard the liner Laurentic. Fromi Britain, Sinclair went into GermanyI where he wa, arrested for smugglingcigarettes.“All of these adventures made en-, tertaining Reading so that Sinclairi was soon sent to Europe, then to theOrient, a. a wandering reporter with Complete Ruling Is Found Inside A complete report on Judge EricCrosa* judgement on the ballot re­count, ruling Ingersoll officially ‘wet’, will be found on an inside page. Whilemore than 60 per cent, of the people apparently want a liquor store andbrewers' warehouse in the commun­ity, it does not necessarily mean they will be established, it has been poin­ted out. It is now up to the provincialgovernment, in the case of the liquor, and the brewing industry, in the caseof the brewers’ warehouse, to decidewhether anticipated trade would jus­ tify establishment of one or the other,or both stores. no particular duties or assignments.

In Central United Churchauditorium Thursday morning, choral readings were given effective­ly by Grade 4 and 5 pupils of Sac­ red Heart School, and Qie boys'choir (unchanged voices), won the Kiwanis Shield with a mark of 84.Ralph Shipton took third place, with 81 points, tieing with DickTreleaven, Woodstock, in the piano solo, “Bach”, 16 years and under,and another third, with 82 points, in the piano solo 16 years and under,(teat piece “Theme”, with varia­ tion in C majqr, Hayden). Yet an­other third was secured by Doreen Simpson, whose 80 points were beat­en by two Woodstock girls, by a total of two pointe in the piano solo,18 years and under. First, second and third were separated by onepoint. In the girls’ solo, 9 years and under, Ruth Ann Stephenson scored78 pointe for a third. In piano, 10 years and under,Carole Marion Finlay placed second, a point behind the winner. For a few hours, Saturday, itlooked as though the “Wilson jinx"w*. underway again. When word came of the 81,000.000fire at the William Kennedy and Sons machinery plant at Owen Sound,consternation reigned in the MiuCanada IV camp. Kennedy's had beenmaking two new-type stet l proptdlora for Harold Wilson's forthcoming as­saults on the world’s speedboat rec­ord and the Harmsworth trophy. In no other spot in Canada could thosespecial cast-steel propeliors be made.With summer almost here, it looked as though Harold would have onlyone propeller now being carved out ofsteel in England. One accident and that would pretty well end this sum­mer’s activities.But after hours of fingernail chew­ing, the Wilsons were informed thepropellor patterns had escaped theblaze! They had been in anothersection of the plant. After Harold hadbreathed a sigh of relief, Kennedy'sinformed him the propeliors would beready and delivered to Gravenhurstthe end of thi, month.A. E. Nichol, assistant sales man­ager, told The Tribune from Owen Sound that the pattern shops andthe foundries were saved, but the machine shop was destroyed. Theintricate propeller pattern, were justabout ready for the casting, and itwas hoped to get enough of themachine shop operating to have thecast alloy steel blade, machined byJune 1. “Despite our disastrous fire”, hosaid, “we are making every effort tosee thnt Hnt«<l<| gets his •wheel**.*’ The following story appeared in arecent issue of the Globe and Mail:“Col.

That will give you some idea of the catastrophe that has struck Winnipeg and area. . Over 100,000 people — men, women and children — have had to flee their homes, leaving them and nearly all they possess to the mercy of the flooded Red- The damage cannot bo counted in the millions. Not in many years has disaster struck so many of our fellow Canadians in one area. Not in many years have the rest of us, more fortunate, been given such an opportunity to show our generoaty and community-mindedness and love for our fellow­ man. These 100,000 homeless, the many more thou­ sands battling the floods, and the ravaged city of Winnipeg itself needs — and is entitled to — our help. This is a golden opportunity for the people of Ingersoll and area to show to all, the kind, thought­ ful generous nature which is their’s. They are not asking for used clothing. It is not the urgent need, and it would take up too much valuable time and cargo space required for shipping the URGENT needs. These include: NEW flashlights, with bulbs and batteries. NEW heavy work sox. NEW heavy work gloves. NEW rubberized or plasticized gloves. . NEW waders. These should be left at THE TRIBUNE, Red Cross headquarters in this area. They will be ship­ ped from here direct to Malton airport, to be flown to Winnipeg. Any checques, for the rehabilitation of Winnipeg, should be made out to the Manitoba Flood Relief Fund.

Thealibi of Ottawa brass was that it was easier, and it would cost les* to issue such medals to the thou­sand* who had them coming. This business ofsaving money can be discounted as eye-wash, because everyone realize* it is just that, and a* for thework entailed, there seems to be no lack of com­petent help in Ottawa government offices, according to the civil service lists.As a result of this penny-pinching policy ex­soldiers are now receiving letter* and order blanks from a box address in Toronto, offering to stampthe aforementioned medals with the necessary let­terings at a price . . . just send along the medals and wait for their return. There is no mentionof cost or real street address on these forms, onlyan impersonal poetoffice box, subject to cancellation without notice. This is the sort of thing which hap­pens when a state starts cheeseparing in the mat­ter of its servicemen and women.(St. Marys Joumal-Argus) Blossom Time in the Garden of Ontario In billows of pink and white, rising like waves from the azure water* of Lake Ontario to the browof the escarpment, stand the blossoming orchards.The faint fragrance from a million petal* fill* the air and the song of the bird and the bee is softlyheard. A glory of pastel color* and sweet perfume,a fairyland of beauty—that i« the Niagara Penin­ sula in Blossom Time.Where once was heard the tramp of marching menand the roar of cannon, amid the historic sites and monuments that take you back to the day* of overa century ago when merciless warfare was wagedand the blood of heroes hallowed this fertile soil, stand the vineyards and the orchards of apple andcherry, of peach and plum and pear, that give tothe peninsula it* name of “The Garden of Ontario”. Here, for a few short days of spring, Naturearrays herself in robes of delicate beauty as theorchards bloom into blossom and unfurl a spectacleof peace and plenty. Not the beauty of toweringmountains nor of ocean* rolling away to the hori­zon that startle you with their vastness, but rather the intimate beauty you can touch, and see, andsmell, the beauty that soothes rather than excites.To the peninsula in Blossom Time will come mot­ orists by the thousands to drive- along aisles ofscented loveliness and to view this spectacle of Nat­ure’s artistry. As this is written only the earliestblossom* are in bud. The cold spring has delayedBlossom Time by two weeks arid indications arethat not until the middle of May will the Garden ofOntario be in full blossom. Of all the motor trips you may take this year, it is doubtful if any will beas enjoyable as that which now awaits you in the Niagara Peninsula.(Ontario Highway* Bulletin) Lions' Carnival ,Bigger, Better Want to play bingo?

ON The GREENS In the good old bowling time When the boys are feeling fineYou put your foot upon the matAnd then you’re right in line. The skip calls out now take the grassAnd should you do it, fineYou’ll hear him holler, that’s the eye In the good old bowling time. While the bowling season has notbeen officially opened, a number ofgame* have been played on the Ann St. greens. Mr. John Croeswell hasbeen engaged as groundsman, andthose who have been bowling duringthe afternoon report the greens ex­ ceptionally good for early in the sea­son. In another month the first tour­nament of the year will be held. Let’s Have One or Other Not Half of Both /- Another collision, the other day between a light truck and a car turned the spotlight on the Ann- Oxford St. intersection again. There have been sev­ eral accidents at this spot over the course of years and many more have been avoided only by the quick action of the motorists using one or other of the roads. Surely it could be remedied by making one street a stop street? But a curious situation exists at that spot and by some quirk of bygone officialdom both Oxford (from the South) and Ann (from the West) are stop streets. In other words, each road has one of a set of two “Stop” signs. Consequently a car travel­ ling along Ann from the East has a clear road with no stop sign.- Another vehicle coming up Oxford street from the north enjoys the self-same feeling. Naturally both drivers think they have the right of way and there is* another collision. If Oxford street is the official through street then let the sign on the south of Oxford be changed to the east end of the intersection on Ann, thus making it a stop street from both directions. Or, if Ann is the through street then let both signs be on Oxford, where they belong. As long as the signs remain as they are they will be a nuisance and a danger to motorists using thi* busy intersection. Firecrackers Are Fine in Their Place But Not Thrown Around Everywhere Last week a three-year-old bay was badly burned whilst trying to stamp out a grass fire caused, in­ directly, by a firecracker. It is not an isolated case. Around this time of year newspapers carry many unfortunate tale* of people having their leg* bur­ ned, hands burned, faces scorched — all because of firecrackers. . . In their place, this newspaper would be the last to decry the use of these explosive toys. But their place is on the day their intended to celebrate — not three week* before. Thrown about indiscriminately by teenagers, often on crowded main streets, they ■re nothing but a dangerous nuisance to store­ keeper* and shoppers. The kids who light and throw these crackers no doubt find a certain amount of amusement in doing it but we vouch for the state­ ment that no sane person enjoy* having, one ey- plode at their feet The young boy went around with some of his small friend* looking for firecrackers that hadn’t gone off. Older children — in year* if not in mind — had been throwing them around the night before. He found one, sneaked a match from the kitchen and went into the field to let it go bang. Instead, the gras* caught fire, the boy tried to stamp it out, his trouser leg wa* enveloped in flame and he was taken ■way in agony that will stay in his mind for many years. Other town* have banned their use before set dates. We would suggest a similar by-law for future years in Ingersoll. Or failing that at least the com­ mon sense on the part of those who light them to pick up the ones that fail to explode — and not leave them lying around for some kiddy to burn himself Spring Monsters Could it be a coincidence that with the first faintbreath of spring on the Pacific, Cadborosaurus, the monster of the sea, has been seen off the beaches ofVancouver Island and the people around OkanaganLake in British Columbia are again on the watch for Ogopogo? Actually, “Caddy” has been seen by scoresof reputable folk off Qualicum Beach, while Oggyis just lying low. However, he has been observed often enough in the past to justify the legend thathe is still in the lake.Sea Serpents and sea monsters occur in many old ■ stories of the sea. For a long time skeptics dis­counted them as no more than the fanciful miragesof imaginitive people. Now science turns a more receptive ear. There are strange fish in the deepwater* to which we are still strangers. A Britishmarine expedition is now on its way to the South Atlantic to secure specimens of a fish believed tohave been extinct for thousands of years. Yet beforethe war one wa* caught alive in a fisherman’s net. > Our Great Lakes have not so far produced anysuch spectacle, although a few summers back pas­sengers on a Michigan steamship reported seeing “something like a serpent” in Lake Huron off theBruce Peninsula. The captain didn’t take too muchstock in such gossip. Apart from the scientific as­ pect, we have to consider the tourist business. If aGreat Lake monster or two would help, it’s abouttime some enterprising resort owner saw something in the water off his beach.- London Free Press Recognition for James Y. Nicol Lost week we had.the pleasure of reporting the awards of meritou* newspaper writing to James Y.Nicol, The Telegram, who was cited by the TorontoMen’s Press Club for outstanding feature writing, and awarded a cash prize by the Fire Fighters’ As­sociation of Toronto for his Coverage of the Noronicdisaster. ( We would like to state here and now that thejudges of such thing* are overlooking a bet if theydon’t open a class for the exchange of peculiar tele­ grams as between district editors and correspon­dents. We think that under this category “Jimmy”would have copped another prize. We are uncertain of the details, but it seems tous there were some»hot ones sizzling along the wireswhile “Jimmy” was covering the gold rush at LittleLong Lac in 1934. That’s where we met him, in the bunkhouse, operated by "Maw Gascon, the Angel ofthe North”, where the standard fee for dozing ina straight back chair overnight was 35 cents, cash in advance. The wires from Sudbury to Jellicoe andback may still show signs of strain from those days.A few years later a young correspondent at Woodstock missed a Border City Star deadline byhalf an hour. One of those telegrams jumped ontothe desk and danced up and down with rage, frus­ trated by the decent language regulations of theCanadian Pacific Telegraph Company. It was signed“Nicol”. Two hundred words of grieved reply (col­lect) brought the exchange to a haltTwith “PLEASE COME HOME ALL IS FORGIVEN NICOL”, Westill have it in our compendium of useless souvenirs.

DON’T FORGET ITS MAY 24th IN MEMORIAL PARK Ingersoll, Ontario, Thursday, May 18,1960GRUENS FOR GRADUATION at COYLE & GREER, JEWEHLLEaR:S Fair Name of Our Ingersoll Bandied About by Two Mice Th* nam« of Ingersoll was bandiedabout two more mice on th* C B.C. thv other night, but in a nice way. “Sum­mer Fal low” popular network pro­gram, presented “Land of Cheese” and Jerry Mouse, an admitted chamaexpert,' looking back as older people—or mice—will, recalled the good old days when his Grandpa regaled himwith stories of the early days of thecheese industry in Canada.According to Grandpa's story, it wa, about 1850 that the cheese busi­ness really began to hum and two menwho gained special notice were Hiram Ranney and James McIntyre. Ranneyof Salford was one of the first to gointo the business on a big scale andMcIntyre, the "cheese poet”, spreadits fame with such verses as this:“The Ancient poets ne’er did dream,That Canada was a land of cream, They ne’er imagined it could flow,In this cold land of ice and snow,Where everything did solid frees#They ne’er hoped or looked forcheese.”Others of the community namedamong the early cheesemakers were Charles Wilson and James Harris.Then in 1863 Harvey Farringtoncame from New York State with new­fangled ideas and built the first<“fac-tory” in North Norwich Township.Dramatized parts of the story told inamusing style, of the canny Salford man, already established here as acheesemaker, feeling out the newcom­er on hij ideas and plans, and of the reaction of the farmers to his newsystem.Another interesting dialogue was that MOSSLEY Miss Gladys Bowen Mr. and Mrs. Stanley Barker andchildren, Carol and Don, visited Mr.and Mrs. H.

Association in 1867. The assocnation, formed to improv* the artof chcv'w maktng, made manv fun- res­olutions (including one which saidthat “it is of the greatest importance that there be no hog-pen within smel­ling distance of the factory”) andurged on all cheesemakers to "endea­ vour to raise the quality of the arti­cle they manufacture until the Cana­dian cheese shall rank second to noother brand in the world’s market."The gradual change and improve­ment, such as cold storage were told to the interested young mouse but toJerry the highpoint of Grandpa’sstory was that which happened inIngersoll, September 6, 1866. On thebusy streets of the town, Hiram Ran­ney bumped into his friend Jim:Jim: What’s up, Hi? A parade or something?Hiram: Haven’t you heard? This isthe day they’re taking the big cheeseto the station. Jim: What big cheese?Hiram: Say, where have you been?Jim: I haven't been in town much lately.Hiram: Figured you couldn’t havebeen. Everbody’, been talking about that cheese for weeks.Jim: Looks as if I'm behind the times.Tell me about it,Hiram: The Ingersoll Cheese Com­pany made it.Jim: .Who was the cheesemaker?Hiram: James Harris and Robert Facey directed operations but therewere quite a few of u9 working on it.It weighs seven thousand pounds. Jim: Seven Thousand pounds! Somecheese! How’d you make it?Hiram: See that new building down the street a piece?Jim: Sure. What about it?Hiram: We had that place specially built for the cheese.Jim: You don’t say!Hiram: Next we got the mould and platform up and we were ready tostart.Jim:Gosh! What an undertaking!Hiram: It was. The milk wa, collec­ ted at three factories including mineand pressed into small cheese.Jim: How big were they? Hiram: Oh, I’d say they weighed a-bout 70 pounds each. The cheesemak­ers brought them into Ingersoll. Then they were milled over and put into themould.Jim: Must have taken a lot of »nilk to make that cheese. r .Hiram: It did, Thi '.y-fivf'tona of itand every . . . Look! Here comesthe cheese now with 12 horses pulling it. What a sight!Jim: Gee! It’s a beauty! What arethey going to do with it? Hiram: It’, on its way to Saratogafor the New York State Fair.Jim: Well! Thi, is sure a great day! The program went back to McIn­tyre for a fitting conclusion:"The land enriched by goodly cows, Yields plenty now to fill their mows,Both wheat and ^Bjarley, oats and peas,But still their greatest boast is cheese.Thus we close this glorious theme,This song of curds and rich cream!”This piece is published through the kind co-operation of Peggy Harding,author of the origpifal script, andKeith Morrow, assistant supervisor, C.B.C. farm broadcasts.

Major F. G. C. Darton,G.8.O. II (Cadets) Headquarters Central Command, told The Tn-bune, “They are the best marching high school corps I have seen sofar. The displays and first aid were both excellent and the whole pro­gram well carried out and rounded out nicely. Although I have seenbettor displays, the overall pictureput on by the Ingersoll cadets is better than any other I have seen."The Major, who accompaniedBrigadier W. F. Bean QBE., ED., Commander 2nd Infantry Brigade,on the inspection, had said earlier to the cadets, “I am very, verypleased with everything I have seen here. Your show stands up very wellwith any others I have seen. It looksas if you might win that Strathcona trophy again this year. I was partic­ularly impressed with your march­ ing and drill.”Certainly the marching of both boys and girls was of the veryhighest order, the rifle precisionsquad in particular drawing rounds of applause from the large audi­ence that watched the inspection and display. Led by Tom Douglas,the squad went through an impress­ive series of complicated drills with­ out a single order being given fromstart to finish. Major J. C. Herbert, school principal, was responsible fortheir training.With the Ingersoll Pipe Band giving generously of their time toattend the parade, everjthing went off like clockwork from the formingup to the last moment before thecadets marched down to the arm­ouries for their dance.The semaphore demonstration was ably led by Cadet LieutenantBill Montgomery and Cadet Captain Sally Fleet led her girls through along P.T. demonstration.

Barker, Ingersoll’s gardeningenthusiast, thought he’d add a littlesomething different to Ingersoll’s flo­ral. scene, so wrote his sister in Eng­ land for seeds of some "rare Englishvarieties.” Eventually the seeds ar­rived and Mr. Barker, with all the care of a new mother with a new child,planted them carefully, saw that justthe right amount of water, sun and food wag given them, and watchedover them from mom ’til night Theywere coming along nicely, with fivespecial geraniums in bloom, and Mr. Barker was all set for a display thatwould delight the hearts of all.Friday morning he went out to in­ spect his beuties, to find nothingbut a pile of dirt. The board uponwhich the pots were sitting had bro­ken—cascading the floral beauties into an upside-down heap below. Mr.Barker is virtually in mourning.

We have a vague note of apology tostrike. When we heard the Juvenileswere playing London May 24th, herein Victoria Park in the afternoon,we somehow got the impression it was to be the London Junior* whowere opposing our team. Instead it isthe London Juveniles. Which, if wemight remark is even better since the local nine pretty well cleared the fieldof juvenile opposition in these partslast year and twice whipped Wood-stock and St. Thomas juvenile crews.So sorry.w • • The tennis court problem which webroached a few weeks ago was thrownback at us the other day when a pal drove us to the CNR station and poin­ted to the ground just behind theswimming pool.

When he loved you, he justloved you- He was on the garage roof* and fences and in the alley* allthe time. He was just one completebombshell. He just never let go.” She laughed just to think of it“He wa* very athletic,” she said. "Hecould ride a two-wheel bicycle withone hand. I’ve got it out in the shed, locked up now. He was always on it“And roller skates! Oh, it waswindy that day he learned. I was almost freezing standing outsidewatching him. He was rolling up anddown, hand* out, and then bent down, holding his knees.“Not going fast, but learning goodcontrol. My, I was proud of him.” Mrs. Stibli'* voice became Seriousnow—serious and intent“You know we are religious,” she said, “Johnny always wore a crucifixaround hi* neck and at night he’dhang it on his bunk bed.

He hadthe bluest eyes . . .” She turned her face away and weptquietly.“He wanted to go to school so bad­ ly”, Mrs. Stibli said. “He stayedaround the older children all thetime. That Monday, just before he was killed, the Sister told my mother:'Mrs. Spalding, don’t send Johnny to•cool next year. Let him play just one more year.

Reason. For Jadg.rn.at “On the conclusion of the recountand addition of the votes cast in the above referendum, argument was presented by Counsel as to the method of determining the result, and it is necessary for me to givereasons for the results shown in the attached formal certificate as to theresults of the vote. In the first place it was contended by Counsel for theRespondent tltft the duties of the Judge under Section 142 of TheMunicipal Act were limited to Ii»hm.ni of goveroBmat stores for •on who applies fot a ballot paper certifying the actual count or addi­tion, and nothing mare I amunabl. to aec.pt thia argum.nL Section 142 110) of Th. MunicipalAct reads aa follows: “Upon the completion of th. recaunt th. judgeshall wal up all the ballot papers in their separate packets and upon th.completion of a readdition he shall Mai up th. original statements intheir respective packets, and shallforthwith certify the result of the recount or readdition to the clerk”From this it is apparent it is the duty of the Judge to certify the re­ sult. of th. recount or readdition tothe Clerk. “Section 80 of th. Liquor LicenceAct reads aS follow.: “Sec. 80( (2)Notwithstanding anything contained in thia Act or any other Act wherea recount of a vote on any question or questions submitted under thisAct is requested, the provisions of sections 142 and 143 of THE MUN­ ICIPAL ACT shall nutatis nutandis apply.” It seems to me therefore, that where a recount of a vote onany question or questions is sub­ mitted under the Liquor LicenceAct, I am required to certify the result of that vote.“Under the provisions of The Municipal Act, the result must meanthe election of one candidate overone or more other candidates. In the Mme fashion it seems to mewhere a by-law is being submitted to electors, or a question as underthe Liquor Licence Act, that he re­ sult would be meaningless if themere statistics alone were given. Tfte questions submitted here were un­der the authority of the Liquor Lic­ ence Act, which reads as follows:“Section 69 (1) The Council of any municquriity in which a by-lawmentioned in Section 68 is in force may submit to a vote of the personsqualified to be entered on the vot­ers* list and to vote nt elections to the Assembly in the muncipality,any of the following questions: Year in year out quality has always been and will always be the first consideration with SALADA T E A gTRHN FlW T H E A T R E M INGERSOLL THURS. - FR1.—MAY 18-19 GENE TIERNEY RICHARD CONTE, in “WHIRLPOOL” Added Attraction—JAMES CAGNEY in “G-MEN” Adult Entertainment SHORTS MON. - TUES. - WED.MAY 22-23-24 JUNE HAVERRAY BOLGER GORDON MacRAE, in “LOOK FOR THE SILVER LINING” Colour by Technicolor Added Attraction— “THE FIGHTING FOOLS” SATURDAY, MAY 20 ROBERT YOUNGSIRLEY TEMPLEJOHN AGAR, in “ADVENTURE IN BALTIMORE” Added Attraction— “LARAMIE” With CHARLES STARRETTa. the Durango Kid NEWS POPEYE CARTOON With LEO GORCEY andTHE BOWERY BOYS NEWS SPORTS MATINEES WED. and SAT........2:00 P EVENINGS Box Office Opens 6.45 EVERY SATURDAY CONTINUOUS SHOW It A ll C h e ck s....

Ap­ plying the figure, in the Certificate,I have certified that on the question, “Are you in favour of the establish­ment of government stores for the Mie of liquor?” there were 2063votes in the affirmative and 1859 in the negative, totalling 3422; three- fifths of that sum is 2054, and the by-law therefore carries by nine votes. If on the other hand thecontention of the negative is up­ held, to the suhk of 8422, 82 votesshould be added, making a total of 3504; three-fifths of this amount is2103 and the by-law fails to carry by 40 votes. Thus we hsve the ab­surd and ludicrous result of 60 per cent of 82 votes, or approximately49 votes which have been rejected as spoiled and of no effect beingpermitted, if the argument for thenegative were acepted, to be counted as part of the negative vote.“Furthermore, while all of the 82 ballots were rejected, it wasobvious that many of them, perhaps at least 60 per cent of them, intend­ed to vote in the affirmative and for one reason or another spoiled theirballots. For example, ballots marked in ink were disallowed, many ofwhich were yes ballots, and manyyes ballots also were marked with a tick mark rather than a cross. It isfair to infer that these persons in­ tended to vote in the affirmative,but legally their ballots could not be allowed. It adds to the absurditytherefore if people who intended to, vote in the affirmative but by inad­vertence or carelessness failed to mark their ballots properly, find thattheir ballots are counted in the neg­ ative. It would seem to be a suffic­ient punishment for carelessness tohave such ballots declared null and void. I am therefore of the opinion that Section 69 (3) of the LiquorLicence Act means -that a by-law shall be deemed to have carriedwhen it obtains a majority of three- fifths of the votes properly cast andactually counted. “It was argnefl by Counsel for thenegative that Section 110 of The Election Act should determine thosewho are deemed to have voted. Sec­ tion 110 reads as follows: “A per Kill Moths N.w FLIT with D.D.T.29c - 49c - 89c MOTH CRYSTALS 49c lb. Tin LARVEX .

Act to datermln. those electors who have voted on th. question. Iam unable to acc.pt this argument In the first place 1 am of the opitLion that The Election Act is used forthe purpose of setting up tho pro­ cedure for holding a poll. Further­more, Section 110 describes what shall be deemed a tender of a voteand voting for the purposes of the Election Act One such purpose ofthis section is to prevent a person voting more than once, and to pre­vent such a person from advancing a defence that on tho occasion ofone balloting he had spoiled his bal­ lot and therefore had not votedtwice. In any event, I am of the opinion that Section 110 of TheElection Act should not be rend intothe Liquor Licence Act for the pur­ pose of interpreting the meaning ofSection 69 (8). The Election Act is related to the Liquor Licence Actin order to provide the necessary machinery for holding an electionon questions submitted, and is to be used for procedural purposes in thisrespect. Section 69 (3) of the Liquor Licence Act must be con­strued to mean what it says, and does not in my opinion depend for its interpretation upon The Election Act“In interpreting Section 69 (3) there are two important cases thatindicate that rejected ballots should not be included in calculating the total vote. In the case of RE SWAN RIVER LOCAL OPTION BY-LAW,1906 3 W.L.R. 546, 16 Man. R.312, it is held “Where a statute requiredthat a local option by-law, to be ad­ opted? should require the assent ofthree-fifths of the electors who tot­ ed thereon, HELD, in computing the total number of those who voted, rejected ballots should be disregard­ed, and the persons who cast them should be deemed not to have voted.What the statute required, there­ fore, was three-fifths of the votes properly cast and actually counted.” There is also an Ontario case of Re BROWN and TOWNSHIP of EAST FLAMBOROUCH, Vol. 2 O.W.N. at page 1001, heard by Mr. Chan­ cellor Boyd, and dealing with a voteon a local option by-law under the provisions of 6 Edw. VII Ch. 47, sec. 24-4, which reads: “In casethree-fifths of the electors voting upon such by-law approve of the Mme the council shall within six weeks thereafter finally pass, such by-law, and this subsection shall be construed as compulsory and the duty so imposed upon the council may be enforced at the instance of any municipal elector by mandamus or otherwise.”‘In this case the result of the bal­ loting was similar to the one under review. If the rejected ballota were excluded from the summing up, there were three-fifths of the posi­ tive votes in approval,; if the re­ jected ballota were included and re­ garded as not in approval because of their negative or illegal form, then the by-law would fall short ofthe three-fifths approval. Comment­ ing upon this situation, I quote thelearned Chancellor as follows, at Page 1001: “One would not resort to this method of giving effect to wasted or worthless ballots unless coerced to it by the language of thestatute. The common sense view of the matter is that the electors, the potential voters, who fail to mark their ballots as required by law, have lost their votes; their attempt at voting so as to influence the re­sult is a failure and a nullity. One cannot tell how they may have meant to vote, whether for oragainst the by-law, and to assure in practical effect that they all meant to vote against the by-law is a vio- Maxwell Power Mowers Gilson, Rogers Majestic and Norge Refrigerators C.C.M.
