Quits City Post to
Avoid Reprimand

After twenty years service, William
S. vining, an inspector Of the City Wa
ter Works Department, has resigned
his place rather than submit to a rep
rimand because he accepted pay for do
ing plumbing work. Vining admitted
he had taken the money, but said he
had done the work on his own time.
Vining is eligible to a pension under
the city charter, and could have re-
tired on half pay three years ago. 1t Is
probable he will apply at once for HIS
pension.
