'.1'__.:VT • The Clerk ca:Lled attention to the fact that, just before the close of office hours on the afternoon of November 3, an employe of Fir. C. S. Ward, Iaad called and deposited checks in the amount of $330. to pay for city licenses for 11 slot machines located as follows: 3 in Sugg' s store, 3 in Neptune Pharmacy (Atlantic Beach) ) 4 in Atlantic beach Hotel and 1 in Jensen' s Store at the Post Office. She stated that she had issued a receipt for these checks (One for $300. covering check signed by C. S. '::ard and dated Nov. 3, 1936, and the other dated October 31, 1936, signed Harry J. Montague) but had not issued any licenses. Thereupon, a motion was made by Mr. hite, seconded by Mr. Howell, put and carried, that the Clerk deposit these checks with the Treasurer and get a Cashier' s check in retrun and that the matter of issuing licenses for the machines be referred to the Town' s attorney, Mr. C. C. Howell, Jr. , for investigation and opinion. Once more the bill of the Florida Times Union in the amount of $18.20, for advertising the beaches, came up for discussion, Mrs. McCondichie, who had solicited the advertisement from members of the former council, being present . She presented letters from :Ir. Palmer and Mr. Bradfield, two former members of the Council, in regard to the bill. After the reading of same, a motion was made by Mr. White, seconded by Mr. Howell, put and carried, that the present Council did not authorize the ad and, furthermore, that according to uhe charter, such advertising is not legal and therefore the present council could not authorize the payment of the bill, the two letters from the former councilmen were returned to Mrs. McCondichie. The bill of Quinn rt. Barton, Inc. , re Town truck, rebuilding body, making repairs, etc., again came up for discussion and the consensus of opinion continued to be thatmthis bill is exhorbitant, unreasonable and therefore unsatisfactory. In consideration of the above facts, a motion was made by Mr. Howell, seconded by Mr . Thompson, put and carried that the Clerk write Quinn R. Barton, Inc . , that the Town offers to settl : the bill for an amount not to exceed 50f/ on the dollars A bill for $38.00 for work on Marshall' s car, having been presented by the Ford Shop, h. M. Stanford, Mgr., and it having been looked over and discussed, a motion was made by Mr. seconded by Mr. Howell, put and carried, that this bill be paid on the installment plan, viz 1/6 of $38.00 each month for six months until paid in full, and that Mr. Stanford, the manager, be advised that the council does not wish to have any bills presented unless authorized by said body. A motion was made by Mr. Rosborough, seconded by Mr. White, put and carried that the salary of the Marl for the month of November be $115.00, the amount of said salary to be designated from month to month. It being pointed out that the plans and specifi- 411 cations of the garage apartment being built by Mr. Oosterhaudt, had been borrowed from the Town' s records by Mr. Oosterhaudt and not returned, the Clerk was instructed to write Mr. Oosterhaudt and direct him to bring them in and file them at the Town Hall. Upon motion of Mr. Thompson, seconded by Mr. Rosborough, put and carried, a bill presented for services in collecting delinquent seawa4l taxes, amount of bill being $38.80, presented by the Town' s A -torney, Mr. C. C. Howell, Jr., be approved and authorized paid. Mr. Osborne, Treasurer, presented his usual monthly statement of Town' s balance in bank and certified statement ©$' balances iredifferent" accountstritch were ordered filed. There being no further business for discussion, the meeting was adjourned. Attest: Correct: ' I e'am°, zo? e rk President
