WHAT ABOUT TWO YEAR TERMt If citizens desire municipal elec- tions to be held annually after this year it is necessary that they intimat* this to the Council. The council maf decide to put the decision for th* longer term up to the ratepayers. I£ they do not do this a petition from five per cent of the i-atepayers ob- ligates the Council to pass the by-law and submit the question at the elec- tion this year and no doubt man; Councils will let the ratepayer! decide on whatever plan they may desire. If Council does not submit ft by-law, the 2-year term automatically becomes effective and the municipal bodies elected for 1941 carry on for a two-year term. If a vacancy occur* during the tenure of office, the re- maining members of the Council ot Board choose the person for the po- sition. PLEASANT VISITORS TUESDAY Mr. and Mrs. Edward L.
