NEWSY DOINGS

Much That the City Will Need

NEW CASTLE, Nov. 14-In the near
future a meeting of the local bodies
viii be held to consider the future of
New Castle. The City Council, Trus-
tees of the Commons, Board of Edu
cation and Board of Trade will meet
to discuss the situation and look to-
wards legislation at the coming
session Of the Legislature.
The city has no bonded Indebtedness
and only a floating debt of about $4,000.
With the boom of prosperity coming
the steel mills to hum and the new
S250,00O Tropenas plant to get under
way early in 1909 large numbers Of
people viii move here. That means
more schools and the idea of manual
training and a business course being
taken up means a new high school.
The necessity for sewers better
streets. cheaper rates for water and
light legislation will come. Sufficient
taxes are not now raised and a more
equalized form Of taxation may be
considered Included in this line it is
contended that a man who owns "a
$1,000 house pays his taxes while the
telegraph and telephone companies pay
nothing and viii not send a message
for the city unless the coin Is forth

Johns Letter.

Do you ever count 1t among your
experiences and your blessings (?) that
you have been in attendance at public
gatherings where there were speakers
whom you came expressly to hear, and
who always had something worth hear
ing, when some chump maundered on
unfortunately to the exclusion OF those
you want to hear? Such q proceeding is
i'll manners to say the least. 1t is
egotism gone to seed. We have in
mind one whose written words-and
they are many-are interesting to a de-
gree, but whose spoken words are a
WEAKNESS to the flesh and trial to tho
spirit-a blare of trumpet from start to
finish, and the finish awaits 10 the hazy
distance. And when at last 1t does come
you como forth feeling that you have
passed through blizzard. Strange
that, with half century's practice, the
rights of an audience should be ignored.
What iron-sided men our forefathers
must have been to survive the long
drawn out Sabbath sermons Of two
hundred years ago. One Of the
essential things to learn is when and
where TO stop and then stop-short, like
grandfather's clock. It leaves q good
impression and adds strength even to
weak speech. No matter II you haven't
told all you know or intended to say.
At the least sign Of uneasiness among
the throng, punctuate with full stop.
Don't start another sentence even II you
fancy 1t is q rousing good one. Others
may not think so. 1t will keep II 1t is
worth keeping. II the sound should die
In your throat unuttered the world will
worry along after the same old fashion.
Getting uneasy Witness my dot.
