FOR NEW L|GHTS
INDEPENDENT ELECTRIC COM
PANY WILL DO BUSINESS.
WANT NO CHRISTMAS SHOW.
Patrons of School Who Objected to
Holiday MISREPRESENTATION
Army Dinner.
WANT NO CHRISTMAS SHOW.

Portions of the city may soon be pro-
vided With independent electric light
plants. This will be received with pleas
ure by those who are complaining about
the prices they are having to pay for a
service that at times is as unsatlsfact-
DRY as the price. A gentleman is in
terviewing business men with a view OF
installing plants in each block OF sufh-
cient size to furnish all within it, claim
ing he can do so at a rental of fifty cents
a light of sixteen candle power. Not
only will there be a profit left to him by
so doing but the lights furnished by him
will be of greater brilliancy n more
ever than those furnished from a larger
plant. The reason why the plants are
to be only of sufficient size to supply n
block is tina the franchise granted the
electric light is such that no
one can cross, the streets along which
their wires are strung without infring-
ing upon their privilege, hence opera
tons must be confined to the block in
which the plant is installed. If the gen.
tleman can carry out his presentations
it will be the means of reducing light
xpenses at least one-half.
Instances are yet found where opposi-
ton is manifest against innovations in
the old methods of teaching children.
One of these recently developed at
Frenchtown where the teacher was pre-
pairing for Christmas exercises that
would enable the proud parents to wit
ness the advancement their children had
made. In the programme were included
music and physical exercises, both of
which are in the regular common school
course. Some of the patrons objected
to these and the matter was referred to
County Superintendent Hord, who up
held the teacher. State Superintendent
Carleton was also appealed to, who is
very emphatic in his decision hat the
original programme shall be carried out.
With the backing of these authorities the
teacher can 0 proceed with her prep
arations for the entertainment.
The Salvation Army is preparing for a
poor children's dinner to be given
Christmas afternoon at their barracks
on Main street. At night a Christmas
tree will be had and the charitably in
clined are requested to make such dona-
lions as they deem proper. Many nave
discarded clothing n wraps which will
be welcome and appreciated by the re-
cipients. Any donations will be placed
to the best advantage. The entertain
ment at night will include tabaleaux,
Rotations, etc.

DEATH OF WILLIAM LEWIS.


In the death of William Lewis, which
occurred Sunday afternoon, March 25,
Stepney loses one of its most I expected Cit
liens. Mr. Lewis was born in the town OF
Trumbull in 1916, but had lived in Step.
mey about as years, where he had the
esteem of those with whom he was asso-
cisted. He was quiet, perhaps some
what retiring in hio manner, but this did
not prevent him from being active. Idle
ness was not in his line. His active ma
ture expressed itself in home and church
life. Home and church were dear to him,
He believed in taking care of both. When
young man he was converted and unit
ed with the Esston Baptist church, when
Rev William Dennison was pastor of
that church. sHe was a consistent mem.
her of the Stepney Baptist church. which
was set apart as separate organization
about 50 years ago, and was one of the
most consistent and faithful members of
the church. He held off1ce in the church
for many years, and honored the office
which he held. Both the material and
spiritual interests of the charch were
his interests. He believed in keeping
the church property in repair, and often
times gave time and strength to this
work. But his Christian life meant
more than that. Seldom was he absent
from the house of God on Sunday, and
! the Sunday school was blest with the in.
f1uence and sympathy of his presence.
In all things he was a true man and
Christian. We would gladly have kept
him with us for years TO come, but the
wisdom of Our Father did not permit 1t.
He will be missed, but he is at rest, and
| it is for US to say, "Thy will be done.'
We shall go to him, but he shall not re.
turn to U.s. r.
