The commissioner said that statistics showed that the number of accidents to persons riding bicyclee was still too high, and with the approach of winter, accidents might be expected to mount steadily. f Mr. G. E. CarY considered that cyclists should have a badge, so that they could be reported when they offended. The town clerk, Mr. T. R. Congalton, said that the Minister had stated that a regulation would be adopted to deal with the whole matter.
