One of the most unusual R.!.D Mail routes in the world iaserv- ed by Claude Underwood. -of Mag- nolia Springs. Alabama. lie cov- ers his entire route by boat, Serving 68 Alabama gulf coast residents the mail carrier steers his small craft over 11.4 miles on Magnolia River. Weeks Bay. and Fish Pond. He crosses to one side of the water and then to the other. dropping mail in boxes nailed to trees.

Few postmen have such a picturesque route. Sky-blue wat- er. giant oaka hung with Spanish Moos. bright colored waterfowl, and a varied assortment of wild animals and fishes keep him com- P

any.

The route begins at Magnolia Springs at 10.30 a.m. By early aft Underwood has com- pleted his rounds and everybody is happy.

A curious thing about a bird's color is that the same kind of bird is darker in one place than another. Where there is much dampness the color is darker. For instance. a robin that lives in Florida. will be much lighter than his cousin living in Prince Edward Island.

Some persons hold to the idea that old birds drive their young out of the nest when they reach a certain age. Don't beleive it. for it is not true. ! have seen many young birds leave the nest. and almost every one new when the parents were. away after food. However. it" sometimes hap- pens that a young bird will perch on the edge of the nest. afraid to try its wings. What does the father bird do then? well. its amazing but a fact.

He catches a fat worm and brings it to the nest. when the shy youngster sees the worm it opened its mouth to receive the tidbit. -

But the father did not feed his hungry offspring He merely let it be known that he had food for it and then. with a loud call. he flew to a nearby tree When the youngster saw its breakiastgoing away. it forgot it was afraid. and so left the nest and joined its Dad on the other tree. Strange but true.

The next step in a young bird's education it to learn to fend for .ltself. The wise parents let it cry its head off for food. By and by it gets so hungry it leaves its nerch for something to eat Thus it clfis its first lesson in helping use .

-A balanced budget with no in- crease in the tax rate was the happy hiahliaht of the report of Councillor W. E. Jenkins. chair- man of the finance committee. at I I . . .. me p side Town Council last evening. Assessment on real estate an per- sonal property remains at .00 per thousand, while pool tax of S6,- 00 on all male residents is also un- changed.

In noting an estimated not sur- plus revenue of 8592.50 over estim- ated expenditure of 3MS.005.00 Councillor Jenkins reminded the chairmen of the different commit- tees that "the practice ol sensi” econom should again be the watchword." so that the results of ac filscal year will be satisfactory

a

He said that in settmg up the estimates. the committ d been as conservative as was deemed ad- visable with respect to revenue, while at the same time endeavour- ing to provide sufficient for each department. to enable the different committees to operate reasonably well by providing the essential ser- vices to the public in a manner denoting continued progress and at the same time endeavouring to work towards a well-balanced economy.

CAPITAL EXPENDITURES

Each year brings its share of

capital expenditures that must be met. he said. if Summerside is to keep abreast with oth er municipalities. Last year a con- siderable amount was spent on streets and sidewalks as well as new water and sewerage extens- ions; and besides these, about S23,- 000.00 was spent on providing six additional class rooms in the High School. 1 It is not expected this year that i any large capital expenditure' i should be made to streets or side- 'walks. the report noted. as with few exceptions. streets are in good condition after last year's improve- ments.

With the exception of some new services, it should not be necessary to spend any material amount by way of capital on water and sew- erage since the town is practically all serviced now with water and sewerage mains

The town is. however, again this year faced with having to provide more class rooms in connection with the High School. Mr. Jenkins said. and since the old auditorium ill the High School had to be con- verted last year'1nto class rooms. the necessity for a new commun-l

Balanced Budget But No Increase In Tax Rate is Announced In S'side

last year that the tax rate would have to be increased this year. he said, and added that the council felt, however. that if the program mapped out last year was followed, a S ' ” budget would result this year. "You will note from the estimated revenue of S348.677.50 and estimated expenditure 5348.- 085.00, leaving an estimated net revenue of 3592.50. that a balanced budget results with no increase in the tax rate.

"Unfortunately we lost our Town Hall early in the year which leaves us in a very unhappy position. It is to be hoped, however. that a future council will find it possible to administe the finances of the town so that at the not too distant future. a new town ball will be provided."

EXPECT BOND ISSUE

Overdraft on capital account now stands at approximately 8100.- 000.00. was noted in the report, "and since the expenditure on school rooms and auditorium will not be made until late in the fall, it is considered that a bond issue will not be necessa 1 until the late fall or early winter during which time we will have redeemed 345,500.00 serial debendurec which are all provided for in sinking fund," said Councillor Jenkins. and he concluded by saying that it is encouraging to note that new buildings is still continuing in the town. which is always an indica- tion of progress. and also a strengthening of the general economy of the town.

In other business by the council a tender of Morrison & MacRae Ltd. for 32157.50 was accepted for ditching work at the west end of the town and along the shore line in this area. y

Fine and Concert Heard At .S'side

-Sponsored by the R.C.A.F. Wing Association (No. No) Sum- merside,. the R.C.A.F. Central Band from Ottawa presented a concert last evening in Memorial Square to a large and most ap- preciative audience.

The program presented by this well known band was a rare treat indeed for seldom has there been an opportunity in Summerside to hear a concert by such highly trained musicians and with such a wide variety of selections to suit every taste. It was. however. re-

grettable that better order could not have been maintained among the children who were present on; the grounds for their constant run-I ning about and their shouting was? very distracting to those who- wanted to hear this really fine group of musicians. At the conclusion of the pro-l gram. the director of the program. Wl0 Ted Robbins expressed his pleasure at being able to present the concert to the people of Sum- merslde but also expressed his re-

of various town departments wasl

also approved by the council. and the only other item of business the fixing of the annual license fees: to be paid by incorporated oom- panles. which are as followsj Banks. 3200.00; loan and finance companies ihead office outside towni 5100.00; accident insurance companies 325.00; fire insurancel companies 325.00; plate glass in- surance companles D500: marine insurance companies 525.00; mail order houses (head office outside town) 8200.00: all other incorpor- ated companies. associations and co-partnerships whose principal of- fice and organizations are not within the town 550.00.

Mayor Henry W. Wedge presided at the meeting. and all council- lors were present.
