Mrs. o. A. Pray Raises Protest
Against Camden Place
-E Blind Pigs.

Mrs, 0. "A, Pray in an address before
the members of the Improvement League
yesterday afternoon, Took occasion to
score the city administration for per-
hitting the existence Of blind pigs at
Camden Place. Mrs. Pray said there were
three places of the sort in the neighbour
hood and that drunkenness among young
boys was not uncommon. She thought a
regularly licensed saloon would be much
preferable
On motion of Mrs. Marion D. Shutter
the league decided to send invitations to
other Improvement associations to send
delegates to all league meetings. G. M.
LOring was instructed to appoint a COM
mittee to outline plan of work for the
coming season. Mr.. Loring, in short
talk, urged members to make every effort
to- increase the league membership, and
said that much good would result from a
campaign Of education designed to teach
residents Of the city the value of munich
pal cleanliness.
Health Department Handicap.
Health Commissioner Hall stated that
his department was handicapped in pre-
venting the dumping Of garbage, ashes and
other refuse upon vacant lots because
under the present law the offender must
be caught In the act. The matter be-
came doubly difficult when the property
owner was nonresident. He thought. the
most effective means of, getting at the
matter was by creating a proper public
sentiment that would make people
ashamed to violate the law. In this work
the Improvement leagues were important
factors.
/ DR.. Kelsey also regarded the formation
OF a proper public sentiment as the most
important field OF league work. He paid
tribute to the good work already done
in this direction by the press and wanted
to see both means used strenuously in
the future.
Leagues Finances.
Rev. Marion D.. Shutter reported a
S225 outstanding in the playground and
vacation school fund. He thought at
least $500 would be required to carry on
the work already planned. Mrs. Shutter,
speaking of the vacation schools, an
nounced that she meant to have manual
training instructor and an Industrial
training teacher in each of them.
Mrs. F. H. Barnard announced that a
special meeting would be held at the Com
mercial club April for consideration Of
plans for flower work for this year. This
meeting will be addressed by DR.. w. w.
Folwell, Professor w. M. Hays of the
state agricultural school, and the prin-
cipals of six Of the city schools in which
the flower work has been especially sue
cessful. The flower committee has al
ready received donation Of several thou
sand oxalis bulbs from Miss Fannie Hold
son. These will be distributed to the
schools for use in nature work with

Mrs. Barnard desires that, as people

plants in their spring gardening, they
send to her those they do not use for dis
tribution to the school children.

The proposition to create the office of

now draws $1,50O per year, is made fire

Office is a sinecure that should have
been abolished years ago, but if the gas
inspector can be made useful as well as
ornamental by performing the functions
of fire coroner, he will be able to earn
his salary.
The duties of the fire coroner will
hardly take up much of the time of any
II man His functions, as outlined in
the resolution adopted by the council,
will be to ascertain the causes of fire,
estimating the damage and checking up

sumed to be performed by the gas in

If the council can be induced to resist
the pressure from parties who are OPP
posed to the inspection of explosives,
the duties Of the gas inspector and fire
coroner might be further enlarged by
charging him with the inspection of
warehouses and buildings in which ex-
plosives are stored. An ounce of pre-
vention is worth a pound of cure. If
we can prevent fires from explosive oils
and chemicals, we might save the cor
oner the trouble Of inspecting salvage

from the fire insurance companies, who
are more interested in prevention of

character whatever accruing to owners
OF obligations emitted by the Universal
company of the Panama i%nteroceanic
