Vol.8, No.24 COUNCIL QUOTES Reeve W.Adamo chaired the meeting Tuesday afternoon as Council met in the Muncipal Chambers. Councillors Cavanaugh, Brown, Thompson and Fraser discussed and accepted the various reports. The Fire Department had II7 fire free days and only one bush fire during the month. They have received their new bush fire equipment and are ready for any emergency. They requested it be stored in the Fire Hall but Councillor Brown stated the South Camp area needed some preparing but it was essentially a good storage area. Ed Stachiw will replace Art Reynolds on the Volunteer Brigade. A statistical report on investigations and occur- rances during the month was reported by Constable D.H.Whitley for the Police Department.
