The mere tact that some of them have a white strip on the rear fender it certainly no guarantee that the dri- ver of a car can see them at night, especially if his lights happen to he‘poor. or there is a car approach- ua every precaution. not only 1mm he can see to drive safe ' but that other drivers can see hi ve- hicle and thus avoid a olli- sion.

It is very seldom that in an acci- dent involving a motor car and a bicycle that the individual riding the bicycle is ever blamed.

Waterloo To Buy $21,750 fire Truck The Waterloo Council finally scored a touchdown on its "politic- al Iootball" by deciding to spend $21,150 on a new pump and ladder true . Mayor Heer made it a definite point that the council could have saved over $3,000 if they had bought the truck last February 8th, when the by-law for purchase was first passed, instead of scrimmag- iing all year. $he motorist is forced by Pw P Mayor Heer further pointed out that, even though ordered now, the truck wouldn't be delivered for al- most a year, and in that time any- 1thi_n_g_ could tyyren2o, Waterloo. Alderman H. E. Ran. who pro- posed and had long since been pro- posing the buying of the new truck, read the Fire Marshal's report, which stated more or less bluntly that the old Pumper was good for putting out bonBres, and that was about all. Also the old ladder truck was good for the museum or the junk pile. Waterloo's equip- ment was so inadequate, that a ma- jor 6re would leave them depend- ing on the Kitchener Fire Depart- ment. He further stated that three new men were deBnitely needed on the full time Fire Hall staff and a new pump and ladder truck was im- perative. He suggested that the old pump truck he reconditioned as an accessory and that several lneyv hoses be_acquireg, Alderman Norman Rata. in a new vein, stated that economy in cash might cause waste in lives. and} that the new Huck should be or- dered 'g',e',t,,eed,,1"',it He t.tet're/ full agreement w th the report of Alderman H, E. Rata and said he wanted to settttlrwreett1ed 13021. Aldermen Archie Case and Otto Hauek definitely felt that the truck should be bought now. Waterloo had been lucky in the past in not having any major ttre, but that did not mean that the town was im- mune. _ Vernon B-uman said that though Waterloo ftre hydrants were in good shape and covered mod. of the town, this still didn't help things any. The old equipment waan't worth I darn and n new trueh In: a necessity.

He was of the opinion that the Board of Trade was pushing the whole issue and grabbing all the credit. He felt that am council should get more recap inition for what they were doing. und less dictation from the Board 40f Trade. Alderm'an Banana wished to know it the Wamloo rate-pays: would actually be t.nahing any .III by cityhood. He (and that the town might lose in equity with the county. Since the county was debt free at present, ttte town would not have to pay that county unmet: .s before, whereas by cityhood. the town would incur min new ex- penses due to additions in the cor- porate set-up. Reeve Hilliard. on the other hand, stated that there would not be much new expense. The main changes would be in the council set-up. Since the ward system would be required, it would be necessary to elect two or three men ftom each of the tour wards The oNices of reeve and deputy-reeve would be eliminated and they would become regular councillors. iAlso a road commission of three Ga; would be required and a Lchange in the administration ot l justice, These changes, he stated, Iwould not incur much expense, and anyhow, the town would still have an ent,ire year to work things out. y, [Slaughter House Jkstmed By Flame NFW HAMBURG-che slaugh- tnr louse nn the farm of Rudy S I ot".
