about the e'nemy’s strength.
“RusiiIa'|‘ rdldilrces cannot be ex-

crease the wages oi the civic employ-
ees. All the sinking funds were
amply provided for and are now in
proper and safe' condition financial-
ly.
Street maintenance work was per-
formed ln a'most satisfactory man-
neir; some necessary! improvements
were nlade to the -City Hall, adding
considerably to its appearance.
“As you all are aware," said His
Worship, “ for some years a demand
has been made for an inlprovemelnt in
our iire-fighting apparatus. We have
purchased a motor chemical fire-iight-
ing engine and hose waggoll combined
which we' hope and expect will prove
s great help to the firemen in their
department. _
“Some new lnacadam work has been
added to our niacadam streets which
now gives us 92,000 square yards of
such streets.
“The Ncrtll-west section of stornl wa-
ter' sewers has been completed this
year ami we hope that tile' gcc-ll work
will be continued in the future.
“We have also made use of 2,000
tons of the gravel from__ the City gra-
vel pit and it has proved a success
in the grading of streets."
His Worship conclude-d by saying
that he was pleased to be able to
say that the promise which he had
made in his pre'-election card had
been fulfilled and -when the annual
report is published it will be a true
statement of the City's financial state-
me'nt, and he warmly thanked the
members of the Council for their co
operation and courtesy and wished
them a happy and prosperous New
Year.
