Contract For Meat.

It has caused great dissatisfaction that the War Department has divided a contract for the delivery of canned meat to the British army between the American firm of packers. Libby of Chicago and Australian contractors in such a way that the Americans are to deliver two-thirds of the meat. while the Australians are to supply only one- third. The value of the whole contract is Ss0. 1000 and 1t represents ten weeks supply.
 The government insists that the Australians received as much of the contract as they could handle. but the general opinion still holds that Arneri- can meat Is no better than it proved to be during the Spanish American War, when thousands of cans here in Eng land were found unfit to eat and sent back to America.

tine city council ii order to prevent waste
Of water when the low water season il

occasions that the city system is capable
vi providing none too much water dur
ing tho dry periods Of August and Sep

ange brook reservoirs will be well taken.
The cost Of the changes proposed at the
Scott brook il slight and the work is
easily ATTENDED to. That at the Orange

important, for the city engineer tells It's
that the leakage is sufficient to consti-

It takes a level-headed, al well as a
capable, boy to stand wen in both ath-

but it is possible for him to Be a leader
in both branches, as numerous illustra-
tons have shown, the same as the con-

is mere incident Of his school life and
to enable him to resist the temptation
to fall into the habit Of mental sluggish
