Adjournment.
AS there was no money in the treasury

They remained away, and in conse-

Director Steger called the Board to order.
For the first time on record this act was
performed on time, and had Mr.. Steger
waited as long as he usually does to open
a meeting a quorum would have been
present, for soon after he adjourned the
Board, Messrs. Rollston and Kimmerly,
put in an appearance and appeared to
feel much chagrined at the Unusual
promptness of the Director.
Those who answered the roll call were
Freeholders Kelly Turner, Hennessey,
Kilroy, Pairson, Noonan and Director
Steger.
The meeting should have been held for

advertised for.

and an Auction.

Birthday Poem'':-
The world is full Of mysteries,
But greatest of them all,
Is seen in grand developments
From things both weak and small,
A tiny seed drops in the ground,
1t needs but little care,
And soon we breathe the sweet perfume
OF blossoms rich and rare.
A little babe is frail and wee,
With scarce a grain of sense,
But just a few short years go by,
And baby ia Immense.
IT'S SO with this dear child of ours.
Who's five years old today;
She's full of life and energy,
She can both work and play.
She walks. she talks, she sings, she prays,
All these she can do well;
OF oil her great accomplishments,
There is not time to tell.
She runs alone, she guides herself,
She needs no watchful nurse;
And she has grown SO competent,
She carries her own purse.
Her intellect and piety
Are far beyond her years,
And if she were not Heaven born,
We'd have continual fears.
She has both friends and relatives,
Thousands Knight remark,
But most beloved among them Ia
Father Endeavor Clark.
Her size at six, we can't predict,
But she will larger grow,
Ii for her strength and sustenance,
She will to Hease en- go.
Press on blessed child Of sacred birth,
Rejoicing In the past,
Advance, mature, exult, expand,
AS long as life shall last.
Addresses were also made by Messrs.
Frank B. Everitt and the Rev. Henry T.
McEwen. After the exercises were over
