Franklin County Council report and other interesting district matter will also appear on Tuesday. " I believe in getting all the money I can from the Govern-ment."---Candid confession by Cr Lyons. An impression is abroad that the night classes in connection with the Technical School end this week This is incorrect, as the session does not close until the end of next week. <l When a man's angry you had better leave him alone,'' was the opinion expressed by a councillor at the County Council meeting on Wednesday.

" I believe in helping my neighbour as much as 1 can," remarked ('r Wilcox at the County Council meeting on Wednesday. Then after a pause he impressively added, " without injuring myself too much."
