He is conf onted on one side by the OBJ
jections of n large number of residents
who say they do not want to see the oil
used. and on the other by an equal NUM-
Der of people who are sending In letters
to the engineers department imploring
that the road In front of their homes be
sprinkled with oil TO keep down the dust
The latest letter was received yester-
day from a resident In S~pringdale ave-
nue., near where an application Of the oil
was recently made. The correspondent
stated that he wanted the dust layer
placed in front of his home, and that he
was willing to stand whatever incon-
venience might arise. Another batch was
received from residents in North Grove
street. near S%pringdale avenue. The resi-
dents say that the oil was placed only
In the centre of the roadway at ms
point, and they declare that the oil was
also needed on the sides.
The letters were placed before Mayor
CardweIl, but as none of the oil is left
a letter will be sent to the residents VINO
asked that the application be made, no
tifying them that oil the special oil has
been used up.

found that about 80 per cent. objected and
a like number apparently was In favor,
In one case an owner near the corner OF
Central avenue offered the Council the
right to sprinkle oil in front of his place.
He was in favor of 1t. but his wife signed
the protest.
Today Assistant Engineer Frederick
Reimer sent a letter to Frank Mann, OF
South Mum avenue, regarding Mr.. Mann's
statements made at the Council meeting
Monday night about the removal of trees
on the southerly side of Elmwood avenue,
saying that William II. V. Reimer had
told him the trees would not be cut down.
The son claimed that during the early
part of last fall Mr.. Mann called at his
home and said the engineer had told
him the trees would have to be removed.
Mr.. Reimer stated that Mr.. Mann spoke
to him several weeks later and repeated
that the engineer told him the trees would
have to be cut down..

Scarless surgery Is one of the latest
achievements In medical science. The
London surgeon who conceived the idea
and successfully put It In practice Is
unable to meet the demands for his
services. The idea is simple one. In
making the incision the scalpel does
not cut the skin at right angles with
the surface but passes through 1t at
slant. After the operation is over the
skin is Joined with the greatest nicely,
a magnifying glass being used to see
that the contact Is perfect Then a
rigid dressing Of wool and glass is ap-
piled to prevent contraction and as
much pressure is applied as Is safe.
Naturally much depends upon the skill
of the operator. The surgeon who per-
fected the process devotes himself en-
tireiy to making incisions In the skin
and treating them afterward, leaving
the operations proper to others.
