The light at the top of Tavistock road steps was being erected, and the uame-plates for Horusey road, Buckingham street, and others would bo erected at the first opportunity. The residents 'of Hornsey road and Dunedin terrace requested a letter box, and it was decided to write to the Post and Telegraph Department Rsking that one be placed at the junc,tiou of these two streets. The state of the low level footpath in Hornsey road was described as being in a shocking condition, overgrown with weeds, grass, etc. The council is to be requested to attend to this at the earliest possible moment.
