A Gard Of Thanks

1 want to express through The
News, in behalf of my son-in-law,
Lucien Hendrickson, the gratitude of
his family to their neighbOrs, for
their untiring assistance during the
recent sickness of Frank Hendrick-

We want to especially thank Buck

ways found at the post of duty. May
the Lord bless them all.
Truly

A Tribute

1t is with deepest sympathy for the
beloved husband and eight dear chill
dren, that we announce the death of
Mrs. S. A. Hatcher, on the afternoon
of April 2, 1915, she crossed over the
dark river. Cousin Mollie was an ear
nest christian and devoted to her FAM
lily and friends. Her death has cast
universal sorrow throughout the en-
tire community. Let US strive to en-
ulate the purity of her life not forget
ting this world is but a prepatcry
school for a larger, more blessed life
in the great beyond, Though her
home is one of sadness, the reflection
of her presence, will shed its, effulgent
rays and brighten the gloom. She
was rested from her labors and is
safely anchored in the Home of the
Blest.
Still we feel her presence near us
In the home beside the FIRE.
But an Angel seems to whisper,
Husband, childre q, come up higher.

Taylor to accept even $6,O00OOO at the
present time came as n blow to the OPP
position forces.
The only condition attached to Director
TayIor's proposal to accept 100000 in
stead of 100000 900 was that the pending
constitutional amendment be passed as II
now stands instead of being further
amended, as proposed by Senator Nc
Nichol. Senator Ware, as chairman of the
State Senate Committee on Municipal At
fairs, which now has the amendment
under consideration, pledged himself to
see that this was done
AS there is little doubt of the constl-
tutionality of the act, an election in April
to authorize the fotation of a So, 900 900
transit loan is now virtually assured.
Councils Finance Committee, through
Charles Seger, chairman of the subcom-
mlttee, is pledged to report favorably
the ordinances making the election pos
sihle. The poll taken by the EVENING
LEDGER of December Il shows that the
majority of Councilmen in both chambers
favors the passage of the ordinances when
they are reported out of committee and
come before them at the meeting next
Thursday.
With special election in April the work
on the subway and elevated lines can be
actually begun July l, as has been advo-
Gated by Director Taylor for months. The
100000 will be ample to continue the
work to the end of this year,
The successful passage OF the constitu-
tional amendment increasing the city's
borrowing capacity by per cent. for
transit and port development can place
that question before the people at the Mo-
vember election.
The $4,000 900 thus provided for the COM
pletlon OF the work can be made available
by Councils before the beginning of 1916.
