Pre- viously there had been a petition to open up a tourist resort at the Curly Lake, just north of Priceville, and it is said that a petition presented to the residents of the township had been signed by approximately 60 pel ct-nt of the ratepayers. It later developed that not only vvas it the inten.i.m tf start * tour- ist resort, but that a license to dis- pense beer was also to be made. As many who had signed the petition v.-ere strong prohibitionists, the ;.ftermath. when the discovery was made was. to say the least, re- markable. Meetings have been held in Zion United Church and also in the United Church in Durham to try and offset the damage done, and the work is still going on. Glenelg is not a local option ter- ritory but there is ik> beverage room license in the townshifp,, and has not been one since the hotel at Dornoch was closed many years ago. There is a feeling of resentment over the petition, which some allege did not say anything about a license, and a determined effort is now on foot to block the issuing of a license in the area. â€" Durham Chronicle.

Osprey Council Sets Rates And Passes By-law For Community Centre Osprey municipal Council met in regular session on Saturday, Sept. 4th, with all members present. A petition, sponsored by Messrs. Jas. A. Davidson, David Graham and. Dougald Stephens, with the signa- tures of 190 ratepayers askinp' that an area bf refined on which monies could be levied by way of debentures for the establishing and maintaining of an athletic field. This was acted upon by the Council and the neces- siiry By-law was passed as required by the Community Halls Act, 1937 and the area defined for same was:- That area comprising lots 10 to 25, inclusive, in Concessions 4 and 5; Lots 1 to 25, inclusive, in Conces- sions 8, 9, 10, 11, i2 and 13; Lots 1 to 26, inclusive, in Concession 14, and all of the village of Feversham and Charleston. Byâ€" law No. 10, setting the rates for the year 1948, was passed, and are as follows: County (general) 10.6 mills. County (pupils) 2.9 mills: General School 6.4 mills; Township 12.;i mills; Federation of Agricul- ture .2 mills. These rates are a con- siderable increase over previous years which can onlv be accounted for by the incerase in waees, salaries and services demanded by the public.
