PORTLAND DIRECTORY : 1883

The canvass tor the PORTLAND DIRECTORY for
1888 has been commenced, and the publishers take
this occasion to thank the citizens and business
of Portland for the generous patronage given them
last year. and for the courtesy and aid extended to
the canvassers in their work The rapid sale of the
copies of the Directory not subscribed for and the
many calls for it SINCE shows that the publishers
not mistaken in their belief that city of the
size and enterprise of Portland needed and would
readily and generously sustain yearly issue of the
same. They hope to make the Directory for this
year more complete and valuable than the last, and
to this end respectfully solicit continuance of the
aid of our citizens in the way of advertising and
subscriptions, and especially by kindly assisting the
men in their canvass at houses and places of BUSH
ness, the value OF directory is its correctness
and they cannot make it so without such help.
BE particular to get your correct number from
the City Civil Engineer, and have it placed upon
your door.

He is comedian of peculiar ability, and with
Miss Anterior, long popular favorite, as the
principal of the other sex, carried out per-
fe-mance as pleasing as it was odd. Several
others are in the cast-all good people. The
laughter provoked was almost incessant; so

lures frequent" Tonight the company will

c8-TnE USIoS has repeatedly called the attsn-
ton Of the School Board to the prOpriety Of in-
viting proposals for furnishing books and sta
tionery to the public schools OF the county. II
any saving can be effected by this method the
taxpayers Of the county have 4 right to the en-
joyment Of 1t. II is the practice which prevails
in almost every county in the State. and in the
city os Baltimore also. Only short time ago
Baltimore city, after having received proposals..
awarded the contract for books and stationery to
bo supplied next year, and in order to make the
best terms they even separated the two items and
invited proposals for each, independent Of the
other. We hope the School Board Of the county
will, this year, resume the practice which has been
discontinued too long. and see what saving can
be effected by inviting proposals. They know
what they saved in the small item Of printing the
school report, when they wanted composition.
They will save much more when the amount TO
compete for 10 Thousands Of dollars instead Of
hundreds. Il Is well worth q trial aud We hope
the School Board will give IL one. This Is the
month the contract l. usually awarded, and the
book. sellers should be promptly on hand.
