Citizens Of the Twentieth Favor Public Im-

ANXIOUS FOR A SEWER SYSTEM
Think, However, That They Should
Not Attempt Too Much at Once
Veterans Will Decorate the Graves
on Memorial DaY-Changes of the
Schedule on the Street Car Line
Other Items of News.

The calling together Of the citizens
Of the Twentieth ward to sound them
on the sewer question panned out we'll
enough to see that the project met with
favor from them. They are even will
ing to 40 further and undertake the
betterment OF their avenues and streets.
But, while none of them are objecting
to the resolution introduced by Select
Councilman Connell at Thursday
nights meeting with reference to the
paving, guttering and tagging OF Pitts
ton avenue from Brook to Breck streets,
they have raised the point that to be-
gin such operations immediately would
be an unwise step for this reason: Sup.
pose Pittston avenue or any other
street of the ward be improved within
the next year. When work is started
on the sewers the streets will be ripped
up The proposition then is to build
the sewers first and it will be possible
to struggle along for few years yet
with the present condition of the
streets. This, from circulating among
many citizens Of the Twentieth ward,
appears to be their sentiments.
