EAST ORANGE TO
END BUYING LAND
Change of Policy Decided III
city's Plans to Supply SUI
ficient Water.

With the reorganization of the
East Orange Water Commission last
night. Mayor Gregory and City Coun-
sci Whiting took part in a confer
ence with the members, and a change
of policy as to the buying of addi-
tional land at the works in the vi
cinity of White Oak Ridge was an
nounced today. There remain about
$50, 900 worth of land to secure and
after its purchase it is more than
probable no more will be bought.
Since a commission took charge
Of the department there has beer
considerable more land bought tc
protect the supply, but IT is now
realized that the city will have &c
join in some larger scheme to have
sufficient supply. In all about
S140, 900 has been expended for land
in addition to what was originally
bought for the plant and wells.
The city now has an additional suit
on its hands as the result of a claim
made by a property in the
vicinity of the pumping station, who
says the pumping by the city is caus-
ing his wells to run dry. The owner
is Pell Collins, who lives a consider
able distance from the plant. AS a
result OF the distance, the city intends
to put in q stubborn defense to the
suit. Collins is asking for $1,000 but
even an award of six cents is dreaded
by the city, because it may result in
others trying to secure money on the
claim.
The Shade Tree Commission last
night asked for tract of eight acres
near the sub-station for nursery pur-
poses. The commission is using q
smaller tract, which is to be given
up, as it was believed the work could
be best carried on in the larger field
The request was granted. The engi.
neer. Mp. Reimer, was instructed tc
go ahead with the task of installing
a laboratory at the new municipal
plant in Glenwood avenue. Owing to
the conference previous to the bust
ness session, the meeting did not end
until o'clock this morning.

Mayor Murray said today he would
issue no licenses until he had seen
the structures to be used. He will seek
State legislation for a commission
to give out licenses, favoring a group
to include the mayor of q community,
one member of the school board and
another man from the Council or
other governing body. He favors
local ordinances providing for struc-
tural perfection in buildings, to in
clude ventilation, protection and su-
peryisiOn He denied he oDDosed the
taking over by the Common Council
of the grants of licenses but said 1t
would be difficult for q group of fif-
teen men, representing the various
wards, to attend satisfactorily to the
task. hence his recommendation of a
commission.

ORANGE EXHIBIT
WONT Be REPLACED
Women's Club Wanted Then
for Its Exposition of Civic
Activities.

The exhibit of the work of the
Orange Board of Health having been
destroyed in the West Orange High
School fire last week, Orange will not
be represented at the exposition of
budget conditions of the four Or
anges, which is to be held soon by
the civics committee of the Woman's
Club of Orange. j. Scott MacNutt,
health officer informed the board
last night that the exhibit was
burned, and the commissioners. be-
lieving that its finances will not al
low the preparation of another ex>
hibit, instructed Mr.. MacNutt to
notify the Woman's Club that it will
be impossible to comply with its re-
quest for an example of the board S
activities.
Most of the water and milk in
.spections conducted by the Orange
officials with the State body some
time ago were included in the ex.
hibit destroyed, and it was priced
very highly by the commissioners.
Patent Medicine Problem.
Wishing to be guided by legal ad-
vice, the board instructed the city
counsel. Mr.. Seymour, to rule on
whether the practise of distributing
patent medicines can be prohibited.
Health officer MacNutt brought up
the matter when he said some agents
pass the samples to children, and he
feared harm would result. A city

medicines can be distributed in the
streets. although they be given out on
private premises to anyone over the
age of IL.

Council decides to sprinkle water he
will be compelled to give up his pres
ent residence, as the dust in the street
where he lives is intolerable in the
summer. and the windows in the
house cannot be opened. A resolu-
ton was passed asking the Common
Council to clean the streets early
and select some effective method Of
settling the dust.
Milk B0ttIing Places.
The rules covering the maintenance
of milk bottling establishments
passed final reading. City Counsel
Seymour informed the board that the
suit against Robert Todd for alleged
violation of the sanitary laws by
polluting the city's water stream was
to be started next Wednesday.

A CH|LD'S GIFT TO ITS GRANDPARENTS

Possibly no Christmas presents car
ry with them more real pleasure than
do those given by grand children to
the grandpas and grandmas. This is
so because it is proverbial that no
children are quite SO wonderful as
grandchildren or quite so well loved
So 1t follows that a great deal of i'm
portance is attached by grandparents
to those little tokens Of loving re-
fembrancc which come to them from
the nursery of second generation
and proper care should be paid to the
details in selecting them.
What makes the problem even hard
cr than other Christmas problems Of
the same kind is that grandpa and
grandma have very few wants. Gen
orally they have reached time in
life when mere comfort is what they
enjoy most, so possibly the best rule
to be followed is to contribute only
those things which will add to it as
much rs possible.
For grandpa various articles of
wearing apparel may be provided and
sometimes when these can be home
made by the children they will be
especially priced Neckties, comfort
crs, watch fobs, spectacle cases. to-
bacco pouches, ana many such arti-
cles can be provided in this way. If
