And now Mr. Reeve, may I extend to you congratâ€" ulations for the splendid support you received which proved beyond a appreciated. And you, the two new year was appreciated. I am sure we will: agree that no one could have been chosen to discharge the duties of this office (Board __of Works) more conscientiously, honestly, and fairly than Mr. Dietrich, I am also pleased that both referendums carrâ€" ‘ed. With regard to the hospital it goes to show that the residents of Waterloo realize that their first duty is the care of the sick and we all trust that the new arrangements will be found satisfactory. I think the garbage system tod, is worthy of mention for this is a movement against germs and bodily disease and is certainly a step in the right direction, "And now as we look to the year that lies before us we are inclined to speculate as to the probabilities of the next 12 months. Let us n get that no matter what have our d‘sappointments in the past year, individually, we are Citizens and must each try and forget these disappointments for I believe that a year rich in possibilities lies ahead and I feel sure we will all put forth our best efforts for the advancement of the town, always remembering that good reflects good. In approachâ€" "We are guardians of public money and property. Let us see to it that we use every precaution and econâ€" omy in using it. We have many organizations, all doing good work and it is gratifying indeed to find how unt‘ring are the efforts of the different bodies who carry on with the work for one and all of them are distinct assets of our town. Three of the great evils of today are selâ€" fishness, suspicion and superstition. ‘These must give way to brotherâ€" hood, trust and knowledge and I am sure organizations such as the Red Cross, Victorian Order of Nurses, and Daughters of the Empire and others help in no ‘mal'l degree to bring this about. We have also our school board, library board, park board and board of health as well as our different commissions. They too mea are doing a work which cannot be estimated in dolJars and cents. Is it any wonder then that we live in the best town in Ontario, In conclusion I believe that there is no limit to the good we can do if we strive to work together with one aim for the betterment of all irrespective of class or creed. Let us go forward |then with courage and I have no ‘ther of J. H. Schnarr of Kitchener. | The focal rinks. were comprised as fear but that our efforts will be sucâ€" cessful.

By the judgment of Mr. Justice | Masten and Mr. Justice Kelly, Karl‘ Homuth, elected Laborâ€"U.F.O. mem-I ber of the Provincial Legislature for South Waterloo, has been declared unseated, following hearing of the petition of Arthur W. Mercer, Conâ€" servative candidate, which . took place at Kitchener December 27â€"28. As the court found itself unable to declare that the petitioner or any other party is duly elected, the election has been declared void. Mr. Homuth is required to pay the costs of the proceedings and the trial. In conclusion the judgment says that though the charges of disâ€" quallflcat'.t:n had not succeeded, the prosecution thereof did not add maâ€" terially to the general costs, which lmean.s that Homuth is not disqualâ€" ifled from again contesting the seat. t 42e D z 3 E C earh g ‘_\ «.'.
