x(‘# # % Replaces Strasser On Health Board * Endorse Victorian Order Movement + to Vaccinate W ¢ maema __ ‘The counci} approved of an agree ment draws up by the Provincial Deâ€" partment of Health between the Koch Transport Company of Waterâ€" loo and the town of Waterioo. ‘The matter arose out of several continued complaints last year from residents in the neighborhood of the Koch ing the warehouse and garage at all Charles street in the town, the comâ€" plaining parties objecting to nolse caused by the Company‘s trucks leayâ€" Ing the warechouse and garage at all hours of the night and thereby creatâ€" ng a public nulsance. The Waterioo Board of Health sent the delinquent party a summons calling upon the Koch Company to abate the nuisance within fifteen days, and when no Acâ€" tion was taken by the company the matter was referred to the Departâ€" ment at Toronto, which drew up the agreement. The latter calls for the trucks to remain idle from the hours ot 10 p.m. to 7 a.m. with no loading or unjoading or repatring of maâ€" chines between those hours. An adâ€" ditional clause provides for the comâ€" pany to allow its trucks to leave beâ€" tween those hours not more than ten times during the year for the wl: discussed at future meetings. pose of liquor shipments at such times as the warebouse of the comâ€" pany is used as a bonded warehouse under the terms of the Liquor Conâ€" trol Act of Ontario. Both parties have signed the agreement, although the town council felt that the hours imposed for nonâ€"moving of trucks were too strict upon the company. Reeve Aske Higher Rate For Hospital Several communications were reâ€" ceived by the council for grants, all of which were referred to the estimâ€" ates committee. Reeve McKersic, a member of the St. Mary‘s Hospiteal Advisory Board, asked that if posâ€" sible the eetimates committee take into consideration the rate pald to the bospital for indigent nuhnm.l which is $1.15 per day, whereas the board cost alone is $2.50 per day without any doctor‘s fees. 1 Mospital Insurance Plan Not Feasible A communication from the town of Riverside, proposing hospital insurâ€" ance for the Province of Ontario was fAled when the town fathers found the plan set forth not feasible. It called for contributions of $1.04 per year for wage earnere of $10 to $20 per week, $2.08 per year for wage earners of $20 to $30 per week, gradâ€" ed up in that proportion. Reeve Mcâ€" Kersle felt that wage earners under $30 per week should not contribute and that those higher wage earners should pay their own share and those of the lower paid persons. 3 Committee Reports Police â€" Committeeâ€"During the month of January 4 arrests were madeâ€"one for housebreaking and 3 for vagrancy. One person was sum: moned for breach of the town relief byiaw. (Fines and costs for the month totalled $7.00 and taxi billse for December and January $17.95.
