to know whether his colleagues favored
placing her on the city's payroll as
police matron. Mr.. Kuhrts thought de. |
cidedly not, unless the Chief felt the |
necessity OF having a matron to attend |

dropped.
The reinstatement of Humane Officer
Wright as police officer on half-p y |

he strongly urged: R. E.

N. Bracewell and L. A. Harris. 1t was
'ome time when the applications were
cached before the Board could
elect from the large number of
names presented, the eleven required to
,ring the roll IN to eighty. At one time
here came near being an open rupture
between Mr.. Kuhrts and Mr.. Cooney
wing to remark from the former which
he latter misunderstood, and Mr.. Kuhrts
vas on the point of leaving the chamber
md permitting the Mayor and Chief to
make the appointments to suit them
elves. Against this Mr.. Bryson and Mr..
