George Keefe, chair- man of the Public Property Com- mittee. in his annual report to the city Council last night? '-The nearness of the dump to the Charlottetown Driving Park presents a problem. in that noni- mg to any extent can be burnt on the days there is to be night rac- mg," Coun. Keefe conccded. He commended the work of caretaker ircd MacDonald. "Only when there is a southwest wind will there be any nuisance from odor and smoke as far as the Exhibition grounds are concerned. 'Since Sohurman's. the Associ- ..,-ed Shippers, and the Island l-fertilizer Company have become .-stabllshcd in this area. the ap- proach to the Dump now has a Zeal gravclled road which carries Llie traffic during the bad seasons 31' late fall and early spring. "I believe the dump is sufficient for present demands." Conn. Keefe ilated. "Therefore the purchase of 5 high powered inciiicrator is tint an tirgeiit demand on the taxpay- ::s at the present time." Mention was made of the instal- lation of a new lieatlng unit for the Market Building. which also provides for the heating of the Public Library if required. Reviewing the work at Victoria Park. Couii. Keefe explaiiicrl that many dead trees had been taken nut and the underground slirub- bevy cleaned to allow for better rrowth.

But he promises to change everything if I'll marry him nowi" What potential tragedy lies in this line. It is so easy for a girl in love to believe every word her sweetheart says. so hard to withhold her faith in his prom- ises. She is passionately in love. and she cannot hear any er!!- cisin of his conduct. She refuses to listen to all the warnings her family and her friends offer. She alone "knows him as he is" and she feels all he need are her faith and her love to straighten himself out. If a young man wants to re- form, he can do it on his own with no more aid than the knowledge that his girl believes he can. He must make himself fit for marriage. If he cannot do that alone. the chance are 100 to one that he can't do it with his wife's help. . No girl in her right senses will take such a. chance. There is al- most no other tragedy like that of living with a. husband who drinks. Aside from her shattered faith. she endures the shame and the disgrace that his in- dulgence brings tipon the home. Not. only is money wasted which siiould provide for his family's needs. but little children are de- privcd of a. father's protection. cheated of a. normal home life, reduced to insecurity and abuse. All this suffering and anxiety will attend her married life. Any girl who finds the boys she is dating is drinking, should cut him off her list immediately. His indulgence is an insult, his weakness deplorable. To be wor- thy of marriage, he must prove himself a man of character. one whose word is his bond. a man on whom she can lean and depend for the rest of her life. A man who promises he will rcform "if you marry me" is it coward. not fit for a nice girl to consider. . .

GEORGE GALLANT The community of Muyfield and vicinity were saddened to hear of the passing of Mrs. George Gallant, on December 1. I961. in her sixty-fifth year. The deceased had been in fall- ing health for some time. but until 4 few days preceding her ” 'e. she had been doing her household duties. She entered the Charlottetown Hospital on November 2'1, and passed away on the above date. she was the former Lucy Gal- lant. daughter of Pocifique Gal- lant and Sophie Blaqulere, and was born in North Rustloo. Being of a. mild and loving dis- position she was highly esteemed by all the people with whom she came in contact, but especially by her immediate family and by the people of Mayficld where she spent all he; married life. She was visited and received the holy rites of the church from her pastor. Rev. Earl Dalton, who also officiated at funeral Mass and at the grave. ' Besides her sorrowliig husband she leaves to mourn three sons and two daughters, namely: Ern- est of Martin, Lot 23; Clarence of Mayfield; and Howard of Hamil- l0.'l, Ontario. Maude (Mrs. Wen- dall Cudmore), Charlottetown and Gertie (Mrs. Elmer Peters) Bun- bury, and twenty-nine grandchil- dren; also two brothers, Bernard Gallant, Charlottetown, and Cy- rus Gallant, St. Mary's, and one sister Mrs. John Doiron of North Rustico.

V 'The modern municipal govern- ment has gone a long way from the days when the protection of life and property were the main function. Today our citizens want. better and more schools. play grounds and community centres. pure water supply, efficient sewer- age systems, smooth. straight streets, and public buildings of which they can be proud. Prompt Clearance Demanded "In the old days all that was asked for and required was tohave the business center of the City cleared of snow. but now, in this modern age. in which the motor car is an integral part of the fam- ily life. all streets must. by public demand. be cleared of snow im- iriediately following any storm of size to allow for their operation. "During the past year the Board of Assessors, which was composed of three outstanding citizens of the City, and backed up by the best posible technical real estate D.dVlIOI'8 in the Dominion of Can- ada, and wlilch was appointed by this Council, completed the work for which they were engaged. when their findings are imple- mented into the tax structure of this City. thus placing the real estate tax on if firm and equitable Lasis. mathematically correct, this City should enjoy an increased revenue at 8. lower tax rate. "in past years there was a grave discrepancy in the valuation placed on the many properties in our City. Many were paying too much, and many were paying too little. We feel that this reassessment, started and completed under this p"csent Council. has eliminated an abuse in civic administration which has existed in this City for . least the last quarter century and I congratulate you gentlemen for rectifying and bringing about this change which was long overdue. "We now find ourselves in amost tnviable posltioii.due to this Coun- cfl's perspicaeity. in bringing about one of the most equitable and outstanding assessment rolls of any city in Canada, and now we other municipalities are knocking on our door to find out how it was accomplished. High School Site ”We met with the School Board on several occasions to discuss the purchase of a suitable site on -.-.-Ziich to erect a High School. While iiothlng yet has been defin- itely decided upon. nevertheless some progress has been made, in that we realize that something must be done. eventually. in this particular phase of education if our children are to be given the oiiportunlty to equip themselves to take their place in a world where education is the predominating fac- tor. "Lam very proud to say that Charlottetown water supply from artasian wells is the purest on the North American coiitlnent, recog- nized by laboratory engineers as the finest that can be obtained for the manufacture of soft. drinks, but containing a consistency of hard- l.l':Ss which requires twice the amount for laundry purposes. 'Your Council have made A study of the feasibility of inter- Jccting fluorine into the water supply of our City with a. view to retarding the deterioration of our children's teeth by bacterial action. This move, we trust, will be im- sponsibiliiy". The meeting by singing "Blast Be the Tie That Binds" and scripture lesson was taken from James 2, verses 14. 23. Luke 19. verses 20. 21, 24. The hymn, "Come Let Us Join Our Cheerful Songs" was followed by sentence prayers. Mrs. B. C. Hardy then gave the Christian Stewardship re a din 5. "Homeward Bound". Roll call was answered by ll members and one vzsitor and minutes of last meet- lng were read and approved. The treasurers report was then given for 1951 and a temperance reading was given by Mrs. Brent McMillan, "Youth on Liquor". Mrs. A. G. Mallett was appointed dele- gate to attend the Presbyterlal and for the program. chapters from the Study Book were read by Mar- jorie Lamont and Mrs. James Mound. Program for the next meeting will be taken by Keith Bryenton. Mrs. Earl Livingston. and Mrs. Brent McMillan. Next meeting to be held at the home of Mrs. Brent McMillan. Collection was taken. amounting to 33.00, and the meeting closed by singing. "Work for the Night Is Coming", and the Mizpah Benedic- tlon. Interference in family attachments is now married. Do you think it PATRICIA He would he I in better in this case? My friend have the 'better mouse trap' and plcmented this year by our Board of Water Commissioners. "Our sewerage system requires considerable thought and we must provide sewage disposal to new de- velopments and districts which at the present time do not get this essential utility. because the outlay of money to install this service is so many times more than the rev- cnue derived. "Once again I congratulate you gentlemen of the Council on the street paving program inaugurated during the past year which has.fo-.- lts object. in the main. the paving of many streets and the resurfac- ing of our asphalt streets which, by the continuous heavy traffic have reached the period when the sheet top has become worn so thin that to patch it is futile. ”During the past year many new street lights were added but I know the chairman of lights is re- porting on this phase of City woik and anythingl might say will be read in his report. Meters And Traffic Lights "To keep abreast of other cities the chairman of police has seen to it that the parking problem has been looked after by the installa- tion of parking meters, and the traffic by the acquisition of traf- fic lights which should be supple- mented by several more as soon as possible. "To return to the activities of the Council. several new convey- ances of land were accepted by the City for the purposes of streets for r.e'.v development, so that new ironies could be erected. A further account of this appears in the re- pllrl. I shall make as your chair- maii of streets. "Another thing which I think is worthy of mention is the fact that the basic rate for labor was raised from fifty-five cents to sixty-five cents per hour, but I feel that with the high cost of llvliig a revision in an upward direction is impera- tlve. Electric Rates tDuriiig the year the Utility Board held hearings with the Maritime Electric and the Tele- phone company and while the Utility Board was the arbitrator the interest of the citizens of Char- lottetown were closely guarded by our solicitor, Mr. K. M. Martin vlio kept this Council informed of the proceedings at all times. 'This Council feels that our el- ectrical rates are altogether too high in comparison with other cities of the Maritimes and will continue, I hope, to press for more equitable rates. "In the early spring the Domin- ion Government. through the Pro- vinclal Government, abolished the Rental Control Board but this Council sought legislation to enable them to pass a by-law respecting" housing and rentals. We felt this was in the best interests of our citizens and rental control is now administered by a local municipal board. "Again. at the instigation of niaiiy of our leading citizens who meet at City Hall with the sup- port of this Council. it was decid- ed that Charlottetown should spon- sor it Festive Week. You Council- lors and the City employees shar- ed in the overwhelming success vliich crowned this initial endeav- our to make Charlottetown thr- mecca of the tourist who is seek- ing a place to spend his time and which should rightly be called the Touilst Paradise. "Following this the most signifi- cant event during the summer was the annual Old Home Week celeb- ration. Royal Visit ”I'he most outstanding event of the past year, in the annals of the City. was the visit of H.R.I-I. Prin- cess Elizabeth and her consort, H. RH. the Duke off Edinburgh. It was my extreme pleasure, and that of my wife. to meet them on their arrival and later at City Hall to present them to the Citv Council- lcn-s and their wives, the Water Commissioners and their wives. the Health Officer and his wife. the wife of the City Recorder. and the City Clerk and his sister. Many favourable comments were made on the decorations of the (iffy and. in particular. the City Hall. both outside and inside. The citizens of Charlottetown greeted the Royal couple with a warmth and sincerity which they, I feel. will long remember. "Perhaps one or the most impor- tant events which took place in Charlottetown was the conference of the Inter-Provincial Community Planning Board. While this or- ganization is still young. it has Justified its origin. I feel that it will be a factor which must be lis- tctied fo'”1ly all municipalities whose desire is to be progressive and keep abreast of other muni- clualltles. and they can be very beneficial in an advisory capacity. "And now to return to the fact- ual part of our meeting, I will, direct my remarks to the finances of our City. Councillor Prowse. our chairman of finance. has de- voted much time and energy to this angle of City administration. lint! rightly so-that is his duty- and I congratulate him on run- i.m.; this last year's business on a sound economical basis. To show that. in current account there is A small surplus of 06,177.23 rev- enue over expenditures which be- speaks for him a close and watch- ful cyc over the monthly expend- itures throughout the past twelve months. i Capital Expenditures "Capital expenditures have been slightly higher than we would de- izlre but they have been made only after serious consideration. not only by Councillor Prone and his with The second girl also 21. grad- She has personality. com- My friend wants a partner in DAVID 3.

The liability for the expenditure is offset by the assets which are the money returnable and the nature of the permanent wm-k which has been done. 1 do not intend to speak further on the financial statements-of the City as I know that Dr. Prowse will pre- sent his own rdport and the aud- iorsl report and point out to you the significant items. ”To report on the workings of the Street Department now would be superfluous as it is my inten- iicn to give a. report as your chair- men of streets, which position you honoured me with on the initial day of the present Council and which position I have carried on ex-efficio since my elevation to the chair. "The chairman of public prop- erty. Mr. George Keefe. has ach- ieved much by his untlring ef- forts. The vast improvement to the Spring Park area by the in- stallation of the six foot reinforced concrete culvert has done much to improve this section of our City. The new park keeper's house, the repairs to the bathing houses and breastwork, the supervision of the Squares and the planting of shade trees in them. His ever watchful eye on the dump and City prop- erty (City Hall. Market and Works Building) made him a most valuable Councillor. ' Crowned With Success "To the Chairman of Police, Mr. Chester M. Cox. I must offer my congratulations. His persistent and untirlng efforts to install parking meters and traffic lights have been crowned with success and he ruist enjoy the satisfaction of knowing that he has earned the plaudits of our citizens. This is the reward which is due him. Along with these extra tasks, he has enjoyed success as the admin- istrator of the Charlottetown Po- lice Force, for he must feel that they are a credit to this City. He knows that he is the man respons- ible for their efficiency and gener- al appearance. His recommenda- tions at all times were very wise ztiid timely and in him I know that Chief McArthur has a wise counsellor. "The Department of Fire, under the supervision of Councillor Ol- Donnell, has had a very good year and the City itself, under their pro- tection. has had safety from any tires. This is due to the alertness nnd the speed with which our vol- unteer flremen respond to all al- arms. kl-Iowever, the year was marred by one large conflagration. that of Rankin McLaine, the Benevolent Irish society. and A. Home Co. fire. The contents of the buildings were of materials very inflammable and the construction of the build- ings were such that the fire spread rapidly. Only through the heroic efforts of our Fire Dept. and their ability to fight fires was the con- riagration confined to this area While it was destructive to a cer- tain extent, it very easily could have wiped out the business sec- tion of our City and for this we must congratulate our Fire Dept. "During the year the much needed LaFrance mobile lighting unit was purchased and this has been added to the equipment. fill- ing a long felt want in the needs of the Fire Dept.. more especially at night when. for safety meas- ures, the electrical output from the Maritime Electric is cut off. New Fire Alarm "Late in the fall an order was placed with C. E. Hickey and sons tFyr-Fyter representatives) for B tri-air horn. A large part of this has arrived and the remainder of the equipment used in the setting up of this mechanism is enroute from Hamilton, Ontario. and we expect it to be installed not later than the middle of February. "We know this will be a big im- provement over the old fire bell which definitely could not be heard. only on occasions. the area in which it could be heard de- pending upon the prevailing winds. The installation of this piece of equipment: will give to the individ- ual fire policy holder is marked re- ('.'.lCl2lOl'l in lils premium rate per year. "There is no dou-bt in my mind that the Department will be con- siderably improved by the addit- zoiis. I know that Councillor O'- Donnell and Chief Jevi-ell's reports are informative and concise on the working of this Department during the past twelve months. We thank the Chief. and all members of our Fire Brigade for the safety they have given the citizens of Char- lottetown during the past twelve months. "Once again we must thank Councillor Johnstoiie for the great interest he has taken in our Mar- ket, and in the public rest rooms and the upkeep of the building in general. Pcrliatps we do not real- ize. at times, the important part our Market plays in our commun- ity, but one has only to go there on Tuesdays and Fridays and he can see the large number of cit- izens that patronize it. I have noticed an increase during the past two years in the number of patrons and feel that this increase can be attributed to its cleanliness and fine appearance. The marked improvement throughout the whole building is attributed to the ener- getic Chairman of Market. Heating Equipment "It was necessary to place a new boiler in the cellar to replace the boiler which heats the Harris Meinorial Library and I would like to mention here. too. the boiler heating the main Market and the Harris Library are now twinned. which means that in the event of it breakdown either boiler can be used to heat either building. l'As mentioned earlier in my re- port, one of the most urgent de- mands fom our citizens is a better lighted City. During the past year Councillor Beaton has done much to bring this about. The many conferences he had with Mr. Ains- wotth and Mr. Buckingham suffice to show that he had the matter well in hand and I know his report shows the acquisitio of many new installations. Until t ere is an im- provement in fixtures we cannot expect to have our City much bet- ter lighted than it is at present. ”I believe this present Council differs from previous Councils. in that the present Chairman of Ten- der, Councillor Gormley, not only represents the citizens of Ward Ono but was the representative of labor in our Council and as such was A real help to us in all matters deal- ing with labour. "In mentioning earlier in my speech the increase in labour wage rates from fifty-five cents to sixty-five cents I can assure you that only through the persuasive arguments of Councillor Gormley did this Council acquiesce. I know that he agrees with me when I sav a revision of the labour rate of "While Councluor Gormley wan not called upon as Chairman ol the Tender Committee to deal with very many tenders I must say that the advice and help he gave me as a men-ibe of my Street Commit- Lee was invaluable. Councillor Gnrmley, I know, will submit in his report a list of the tenders called throughout the year, and their disposition. , Full Cooperation I "I have singled out and mem- iioned the various chairmen of my Council in respect to the particu- lar committee of which they were the head. I new take the liberty of expressing to them, not individ- ually but as members of the full Council, my appreciation of their thoughtfulness and cooperation Ill the many Couiicll meeting! throughout the year. After all. the City's business is not tran- sacted by commlttees but by the Council as 3 whole. The manner in which you have dealt. with my recommendations and requirements of the different committees showeg that you were faniillar with eac and every angle of civic administ- ration. "The great work carried on by Dr. Wendell MacDonald, our City Health Officer, the work done by our Provincial Health Departmenl in the matter of X-raying for tuberculosis and the examination of all school children by the Pub- '.ic Health Nurses, the survey and treatment done by the Provincial Dental Health Clinic, are worthy of our sincerest thanks. ”The general health of our citiz- cns through the efforts of the above organizations is safeguarded. Perhaps we do not take the time to realize that were it not for the clforts of Dr. MacDonald and the Public Health Nurses. communic- t-ble diseases might easily develop into an epidemic. Tliclr ever watch- !'ul eye keeps many diseases in subjection. ”While the milk vendors and bakeries are looked after by the Provincial Department of Health, I feel there is room for improve- ment. The incoming Council should, as soon as possible. meet with the Provincial authorities to discuss the matter of inspecting not only milk and bakeries but also meats. fish, etc. I believe there is room for an inspector on a full time basis. I believe. also, the meat should be inspected while the animal is still alive. Central Slaughter House "I believe, too, that the estab- lishment of 3. central slaughter house, under rigid inspection and with sufficient refrigeration space, should be given careful considera- tion. The stable. premises, and utensils should receive the same rigid inspections for the handling of milk as well as in the handling of meat. This inspection should i apply to all fresh food sold to the general public and could only be satisfactorily accomplished by I l full time appointment. This, I be- lieve, would be a protective meas- ure, not only for the persons en- gaged in selling meat, fish, mill and food but for the safety of tho consuming public as well. ”I must offer my congratulations to the School Board, and welcome Mr. Allan Mcwilliam, Mrs. Helen Livvlor and Lleut. Col. Keith John- ston to the Board of School Trus- tees. Under the direction of Dr. R. G. Lea, the Board has had 3 very busy year and have given I good account of their stewardship. This is a very important body. not pay in an upward trend is impera- tlve.
