Last year Mrs. Gardiner had a serious illness but she made a re- markable recovery and this year they are able to observe their an- niversary together once m' e. Sunday evening a quiet fa dinner was held in their honor t the home of their granddaughter, ligrs. Chalmers llutchlnson of lot 1 .

They will locate in 1: portion of, the Smallman building formerly occupied by the hard- ware department and renovation of this part of the premises has been under way for about two weeks. The hardware department has been moved to the basement The inside arches connecting the Cooperative Super Market. Wool- v:orth's and Smallman's will be retained and will be open during business hours.

At the regular monthly meeting of the Summerslde Town Coun- cll held last evening with all Councillors present and Mayor Henry Wedge in the chair, it was decided to petition the Legislature for power to borrow the sum of 5300.000 to cover the cost of cap- ital expenditures. It had previous- ly been decided to borrow two hundred thousand but the motion last night indicated that the Council had decided that more was necessary.

The bonds to be issued will bear interest at the rate of its per cent instead of Sit percent as previous- ly decided and Councillor J. L. Gorrill explained that this was so they would be more easily sold as the Federal Government is now paying (its on new bond issues.

A motion was also passed auth- orizlng the borrowing of 5300.000 by way of overdraft instead of 5200.000 to cover the cost of cap- ital expenditures ifor this year. During the reading of the minutes it was divulged that a special meet- ing had been held on July 26th at which the paving of Maple Ave- nue had been authorized.

Gordon re purchas- ing the electric light system in Alberton if mutual agreement can be .eached. The letter stated that no improvement of the overhead wire system can be expected un- less a very effective effort is car- ricd out to trim and remove some of the heavy tree growths along the town sireci-5. Unless this can be done with full co-operation of the council and citizens, the com- pany claims it will be futile for them to take ovcr the system at all. They do not wish to spoil trees unnecessnrily but 'sun..- that citi- zcns must decide whethcr they wish to safrificc trees in return for more adequate power supply. In response to this letter it was moved. seconded and carried Lhat full co-operation be given to Muri- lime Electric Company in regard to the removal of trees or branches that would in any way interfere with transmisslon'of right. or pow- or within the town.
