Nearly 200 men IN the Board of
Works payroll are watching the out
come of an amendment to chapter 243
OF the laws of 1911 pertaining to the
eight-hour a day law regulating the
time of those in the employ of the
State, county and city. The above
number work by the hou and are paid
accordingly, and at times are credited
with from ten to twelve hours service.
Some draw 1925 and the change would
lessen their wages considerably. They
argue that they are employed over
time for maintenance.
Some are watehmen and reserve men
in case of sewer leaks or burst of
water mains and the like.
The men, it is said, are satisfied to
work overtime as long as they are
paid for it.

Debate
Over Stray Dogs
Humane Society Member SIaps
at Works Board.

While defending the Humane Society
management today, former Alderman
Howard c. Grice, a member of the So
ciety, took a shot at the Board of
Works. 1t was during the weekly con-
ference in the mayors office of the
legislative committee of the various
heads of the city's departments that
Mr.. Grice talked at length of the work
done by the society. City Counsel
James R.. Nugent said that the city
had ample protection for he appropri-
alton of $500 annually. The debate
started while the proposed~bill which
would give the management of the in
~stitution to the Board of Health was
under consideration.
Its a hard matter to keep track
Of stray dogs" said Mr.. Grice. 'They
are in Frelinghuysen avenue in the
morning and in the Forest Hill sec
ton in the afternoon. The Board of
Health claimed last year there were
10, 900, but really there were perhaps
only half that number. It's easy to
criticise. We have streets that are not
clean and the Board of Works are crit
icised. Our Board Of Health, police and
fire departments are also criticised, al
though they compare favorably. with
any. Some people write to newspapers
and do not sign their names instead of
fighting in the open"
Mr.. Grice told of the workings of the
society and declared that it would
mean a big expense to the city to con
duct the institution. He said that men
expectorate on the sidewalks and that
it would take an inspector to follow
every citizen to catch him. He COM
pared the catching of stray dogs in
this way.
Dr.. j. C. Corlies, president of the So
ciety, was on hand with facts and
figures. and, on motion of Mr.. Nugent,
the after was referred to the finance
and humane committees of the Com
mo- Council, the Board of Health and
Humane Society.

WATER FAMINE IS
BARELY AVERTEO
Supply in East Orange Reser-
vOir, Which Was Below
Danger Line, Up Again.

The fact that East Orange narrowly
escaped a water famine within the past
few days. and would lave suffered dis
astrous results had a big fire occurred,
leaked out today. The real danger was
on Saturday last, when the big reser-
voir in South Orange avenue only con-
tanned but a million gallons Of water,
although the daily consumption OF
water is three million gallons.
In the water plant at White Oak
Ridge is a centrifugal pump, which
forces the water from the driven wells
in the water area through the Ridge
and Livingston Township to the stor-
age reservoir in South Orange avenue.
The machinery is worked from a large
motor and the danger in case of a
breakdown was illustrated during the
week..
1t was on Tuesday that the motor
operating the pump broke. There was
no method of fixing it at the works,
and it was decided to have it rushed
to the Crocker Wheeler plant in AM
pere for repairs. In the meantime the
water department had no method for
forcing the water to the storage tank,
inc in order to have the water reach
the city it was necessary to depend on
gravity alone. No mention of this came
from the water department, however.
On Saturday the situation became
serious when the department
found that the supply at the reservoir
was gradually becoming lower and
lower, and about noontime it was dis
there was but four and one half
of water in the tank, n had not
the pump been operated before the day
passed there would not have been any
water passed to the city. 1t is low be-
lieved the Water Commission will make
some improvement in the plant, sc
that the danger met with last week
will be repeated.

THE ROAD TO HAPPINESS.
I have lost the road to happiness
Does any one know 1t, pray?
I was dwelling there where the view was
fair,
But somehow I wandered away.
saw rare treasures in scenes of pleasure
And ran to pursue them, when, 10,
had lost the path to happiness
And knew not whittier to go.
I have lost the way to happiness.
o who will lead me back?
Turn off the highway of se1flshness
To the right, up duty's track.
Keep straight along and you can't go
wrong,
For as sure as you live, I say,
The fair lost fields of happiness
Can only be found that way.
