HIS MAKY SERVICES TO LORDON
The coming Lord Mayo", Fit Vissy Strong, unlike the present Chief Magistrate, Sir John Koiff, and his predecessor, Sir George Truscott served po apprenticeship on the flɔne of the couit, but was elected as Alʼarman without experience either of the Corporation arof any municipal body. In fact, Sir Vezay was elected wholly on trust, the ratepayers of his ward of Qesenhithe relying entirely on the avidance be bed given by his work in other directions of the steadfastnessol purpose which characterised him and the qualifications he possessed as a publ'e min.
The Aldermen as a rule take but little practical part in the work of the Corporation as
icipal body. They, in fact, reserve their energies for the work on the magisterial bench, and for the responsibility which devoless upon them first as Sheriff and afterwards as f-Led Mayor. Ele Vezsy Strong has been an exception in this respect, and from almost the day of his election has taken a fall share of the responsibility attached to work in the Colwell
Chamber at Guildhall:

quently the local work not only was con ducted on an extravagant basis, but lacked the similarity of administration, which count for so nuchin mucicipal life. It was estimated that by the fusion, and the concentration of the work of assessment and rating in the beds of the Guldball authority, there would be pot only greater smoothnest of working and ■simplification of machioers, but a distinc saving' to the pɔckels of the rate- payer. This anticipation bas niceady been fülilled, end, but for the Act, the ratepayers would to-day be paying zd, more la the thancayipg s¡300 cabio passengers-an unusually is actually the case. It is interesing to noto large pumbar for the time of year. it connection that the conservativą City, with the importance it attaches to tradition, pioneer- ed the movement for the abolition of Foards of, and three, which left together-1be Guardians. The clause providing for the trans fer to Guildhall of the entire work of the Oity of Loods Union was, coriously enough, struck rat of the measure through the action of the Local Government Board, whereas to-day same Board, strengthened by the recommendation of the Royal Commissio", is adrocating the exict. step which the Corparation was desirous of raking,
The other reform with which Sir Versy “Strong, as chairman of the Special Committep, was closely identified is the abolition of the Aldgate Tithe, a burden representing an impost 'af 15, 107; in the, Z' on the rate-payer of that district. By arrangement with Six Marcus.

At the present time other parishes in the City subject to a like burden are seeking relief from the Corporation ina like way, but an fat no scheme for redemp. tion has been pirjected consequent on the iosbility to obtain terms epabling extinction to take place on the lines doped in Aldgate. Undoubtedly in both cases-the one parish flon and the abolkien of the Aldgate Titha -ibe persistent and powerfat advocacy of Sir Very Strong, bath in the Council Chamber and in the Parliamentary Committee Room, coupled-for much in the accomplishment of the projects brought forward,

SIR" VIZEY'S SHRIRYALTY, ...,
Sir Veży Strong served the office of Sheriff in the year 1995, she Lord. Maysi being Sir John Pound and the other Sheriff Sir George Woodman. The twelvemonth witnessed sa- veral events of great national interest, and in pudcnter the cutestalo morts of the Kings of Spain and Fortugal st the Guildhall and the reception ofibe French seamen by the Corpora ston. In recognition of the brilliancy of the Jear the Lord Mayor received the honour of a baronetcy and each Sheriff the dignity of a kalghthood.
Sir Vezes Strong is a member of the Station en and the Plambers' Companies, and haz serred an Master of sich Guild. The fact that be le a member of two working Companies- the Etations discharging to-day, with all the actvily of former years, the duty.conferred upon them by their chaster, and the Plombers renewing their old anszciation with the trade......... ischaracteristic of the thoroughness and practic al qutlook on life of the Alderman who will be Chief Magistrate during the coming year. It is a chtious coincidence that the Alderman was Mirer of the Stationtis Company, dating the year which witnessed the goo h anniversary of the foundation' of the Guild) and that by will occupy the civic chair, in the sweits-months danaz which the gccthingiversáry sliku Ovild- ́hall will be cɔmmemorated...
