"How would it be to get after the railways to provide ample . accomâ€" modation for the traffic that â€" they question of an industrial commissionâ€" er or an industrial committee. After two or three years as a member of the Board of Trade Mr. Wilson said Kump( committees were formed of good men at the beginning of the year, but be did not believe they _ got together throughout the year to tramsact any business. For that reason he said he would like to see an industrial comâ€" mittee appointed, and they could be vested with ever more rights _ than the usud} committee. . He thought it wouid be in order for the Town Council to give a grant of $200 or $300 to carry on the work, and the cominittee could look into the condiâ€" tions and see what industriee Waterâ€" loo was best adapted for. _‘ Mr. J. H. Roos;said he thought the idea was q gpod one. Last year the Retail Merchants Association _ had got together and got out a circular which was sent broadcast throughout Waterlaq; and she believed the _ :dea was a good one, as it was a good thing to help boost the town. President Bauer said he thought the idea was a very good ore. Howâ€" ever, it was pointed out that good mem wereâ€"now on the Manufacturers Committee, and there was no need of having another committee. A reâ€" solution was then passed â€" changing the name of the committee from the Manuiacturers Committee to Manuâ€" {acturers and Industrial Committee. i How About a Banquet? i Will the Board of Trade have a banquet this yvear‘t was the question raised by Mr. C. S. Bean. He said he thought it would be a good thing to get the members of the Board toâ€" gether and gain coâ€"operation. Secretary Naylor said that the reaâ€" son the banguet had been _ dropped was owing to the cost of the same going up se high. A few years ago a banquet could be held for 60 to 75 cents a plate, whereas . now it would cost $1.50 _ a plate, which could not cormge out of the funds and the members would not want to pay so high a price. A committee comâ€" posed of Presidett Bauer, Secretary Naylor, Mr..Hilliard and C. S. Bean was appointed to look into the adâ€" visability of having a banquet, . and the means of financing it, and to reâ€" |pm't at the next meeting. of _ the Board of Trade. good idea to have an official invitaâ€" tion sent tp the Town Council, _ inâ€" viting the members to be present at the meetings of the Board, as greater progress could be made for the betâ€" terment of the town. President Bauer thought. it could be vice versa, and the _ Board ol Trade members could also attend the Council meetings to advantage: In refeteace to the remark of Mr. Wilson that the Council should maxke a grant to the Board of Trade, Mavor Kauiman said he favored such a course, as the members of _ the Board came together in the interests oi the town, and it was right they should help pay for it. . Councillot Halstead took the same stand, favorâ€" king a grant from the Council. President Bauer was in the chair, and those present were Messrs Thos. HMiliiard, W. J. Beattie, Mayor J. R.
