r. man: my. N With early organization of the party's forces. a keen election is in prospect when next the electors are called upon, to exercise their franchise in the provincial field, especially in View of the fact that the present member, Mr. Tweed, has proven himself a particularly strong and effective campaigner as was evident in the contest: which have been wnged in North and South Waterloo and in which he played a dominant part in redeeming them for the At a meeting of the Conservative stalwarts the other day, Dr. J. E. Ilett, who was one of the Conservative candidates in the three- cornered contest waged in the constituency of North Waterloo in which S. C. Tweed was re- turned as the representative of the riding, in- timated that he would be glad to be the standard bearer of the party in the next pro- vincial election. Dr. Hett has been active in a number of political campaigns in the riding and is well known in the constituency. particularly in the neighboring city of Kitchener where he has been a practising physician for many years. He is evidently to be the choice of the Conservative convention to he called early in the new year, judging by the announcement at the meeting in question. Mayor Dietrich during this period has been a zealous public servant who sought at all times to advance the highest interests of the municr pality, as well as of the country. He was par- ticularly associated with the road-building pro- gram carried through so sueeeissfully during the past few years and to him is due a large, measure of credit for the splendid highways; which serve the town, all four main roads lead- ing into Waterloo being now paved. In both the town and county councils Mr. Dietrich has been a highly valued member, attaining the highest offices in the gift of both municipalities, having been Mayor of Waterloo for the past two years and previous to that Warden of the County for a term when he held the reeveship. The retirement of Mayor Dietrich from the municipal field after nine years in the service of the town and county, concludes a most credit- able civic record. The council this year contained a number of ex-mayors as well as councillors with many years of experience in municipal affairs as well as younger members, all of whom, throughout the year, bare zealous and efficient service. New aspirants to seats at the council board are G. S. Raymond and E. C. Schmidt, so that the municipality will not lack for candidates to fill the various offices. With the retirement of Mayor Dietrich, the next in line for the office is Reeve Uffelmann, while first deputy reeve Frickey has announced his candidature for the reeveship. Second deputy reeve Dotzert will stand for the posi- tion of first deputy were, and Aldermen H. E, Ratz and Wes. McKersie will contest the second deputy reevoship. It is understood that all members of this year's council with the excep-I tion of Mayor Dietrich will seek re-election. Present indications point to a contest for municipal offices in Waterloo, particularly since a vote is to be taken on the question as to whether the Sewer Commission is to be aboL ished or continued. It was a graceful and fitting recognition on the part of the Board of conscientious, ef- tieient and self-sacrificing service, which was recognized by her fellow teachers of all grades in the Waterloo schools who especially request- ed that the new school be given her name in view of her contribution to the educational progress and welfare of the hundreds of pupils who passed through her vision. i Miss/Ziegler was a particularly efficient teacher in the kindergarten department over which she presided with such outstanding ability for more than half a century, and many of those in business and professional life of the 'community had the privilege of being under her tutorship in the early years. All pay tribute to the excellence of her teaching and capability with which she filled the position which she occupied with such signal acceptance for so many years. Waterloo’s new public school now in course of erection is to be known as the "Elizabeth Ziegler School" in honor of a meinbed of the teaching staff who for nearly sixty years taught the $3 young generation in the Waterloo sch .

The new school. on which the sum of $125,000 is being expended, will, of course, em- body every facility for promoting the cause of education in the community by affording addi- tional opportunities for the acquirement of knowledge which 'will equip those who attend for a life of usefulness, in the years to come, While the amount involved is a very sub- stantial one. communities cannot progress un- less the school facilities are adequate. The chil- dren in the homes, if they are to embody the qualities of good citizenship, must receive and are deserving of an adequate education. This is generally recognized and has resulted in the furnishing of school facilities which in the Twin-City are comparable to the best that are i to be found in the province. With the awarding of contracts by tho Waterloo Public School Roard for a new school to be built in the east ward, provision is being made for the accommodation of the growing school population of the town. The administration of public utilities by commissions has undoubtedly worked out satisp taetorily in connection with many municipal enterprises. especially where they levy their own rates and are self-sustaining. In the case of the sewerage system, however, where the outlay for upkeep has to be met out of the general taxes, the work of administration could‘ perhaps be more advantageously placed in the hands of a committee of the council which after all has to find the funds to meet the necessary expenditure. The suggested change was prompted by the desire of , the council to have a more direct voice in the carrying on of this public utility especially since the town council is called upon, from time to time, to decide as to the wisdom of proposed expenditures since the cost of ad- ministering it comes out of the general funds raised by taxation. The difficulty of obtaining citizens to serve on that body also influenced action having for its object the abolition of the sewer commission. The proposal to abolish the present sewer commission and placing the administration of the Waterloo sewerage disposal system in the hands of a committee of the town council. is to be voted upon by the ratepayers of the munici- pality at the forthcoming municipal elections. It is therefore not surprising that his name should have been proposed for the leadership of the Liberal party in Ontario as he has been one of the outstanding members of the Legislature who has displayed undoubted qualifieatiisrrfor this high office. l Since his election as a member of the 'Legislature, Mr. Tweed has taken a prominent part in the discussions in the House while he has been active in campaigns not only in this County but in other constituencies throughout Ontario, his fine organizing ability being re- flected in gains made by the Liberal party since he has become actively identified. 1 The name of S. C. Tweed, North Waterloo's representative in the Ontario Legislature. has been prominently mentioned in connection with the responsible position of leader of the Liberal party in the province. ‘ Under the circumstances it would appear that the decision of the council is a wise one. With the return of more prosperous times, pub- lie opinion will naturally be more favorable to endorsing projects which, although in them- selves meritorious, are likely to be unfavorably received during a period of slackened business such as is being experienced at the present time. By-laws involving the expenditure of large amounts which ordinarily would receive strong support, do not find much favor during a busi- new depression such as at present prevails. Anything, therefore. which tends to increase the tax burden, no matter how small the amount, meets an unfavorable reception. mun-ac or the timeout: Soul ( The proposal took concrete form when the tteg 2r,'d,'rt,1'ce “If: (Waterloo Council, reoozniting the need, decided (but, ' Jht "I: J. bargain.” Ito submit a by-law to the ratepayers, with a Stock has“; Convention. hunk view to securing their opinion on the proposal 's'aNt/tN,'Jg,t,i't,t Gt"" ther to erect an addition to cost the sum of $6,600. --- Since the announcement, however, it is evident Aummm" cuff: 3:111:39 k a that a considerable body of opinion is not our: good teed if it 1. not nomad. favorable to expending this amount on an addi- 2eA',tN1ttrt .31: 't,tfdet tion at the present time owing to depressed con- Into In the man".
