New Hampshire avenue home. On leaving,
young Joseph bowed himself out with good
byes to his host and hostess, and in the hall
he saw an imposing row of funkeys, silk

Note OF Appreciation

Honor to whom honor is due.
Though | profoundly appreciate the
numerous expressions of thanks
which have come to me during the
past week, yet | believe SO thorough
ly in the above quotation that | must
ask that credit be given less to me
and more to those who have made the
five musical evenings of the Island
Avenue Congrega tional Church pos
sibility. A big debt of gratitude is
due the Editor of the Independent
Reporter and his associates who have
been among the staunchest friends of
the entire enterprise. The audiences
have been most generous Much
credit for the series falls to the nom
resident musicians who have taken
part; for individual concerts. Prof
f. f. Towne. Miss Edith Lewis and

LOCAL TOWN MEETING
GOSSIP
Second Monday In March Will Soon
BE Here and Matters to be Acted
Upon at That Time Are Being Dis
cuSsed

Town meeting day is fast approach
ing and with it is plenty of animated
discussion upon matters pertinent to
the welfare of the community Many
of the routine articles have already
been placed in the hands of the Sc
lectmen, while numerous other ideas
will doubtless be advanced and added
to the warrant for later action.
One of the most notable of these
will probably be to see what action
the town will take relative to the
purchasing of a combination hose and
chemical wagon. the same to be drawn
by an automobile. which will be kept
nights, Sundays and during the winter
attached to the chemical wagon, but
which during the day will be at the
disposal of the road commissioner to
aid him in keeping touch with road
conditions in the rural districts. One
other added improvement should such
an outfit be installed would be that
Of being able to subdue fire in
the country with the chemicals, where
the present system is inadequate The
entire outfit would probably cost
about $4,000
There is some interest manifested
in the selection of a member of the
school board, W. II. Halves. Esq,
being a candidate for reelection
while Rev j. G. Osborne is also a
candidate. There have been several
mentioned as aspirants for the office
of third selectman Chas. II. futile,
the present encumbent has decided to
again be candidate and others who
whose names have been mentioned as
running for that Office are DR. A. B.
Borden, Albert Libby and John Nc
Quade. r +. Parker and William
Demo are candidates for reelection to
the offices of first and second select
men and c. M Lambert for clerk and
collector The name of John II. Lam
caster has also been mentioned as a
possible candidate for the Office of
first selectman.
Under the present law there will be
no road commissioner appointed at
the March meeting but the appoint
ment will be made the first of April
This leaves a few weeks during which
the town will be virtually without any
official in this department of munich
pal affairs. 1t is expected that f. l..
Ford will be re-appointed, however, at
the proper time.

SCHESTAK UPHOLDS HONOR
OF MEN IN u. S. ARMY

A letter was recently received from
John . Schestak of Co. B 22nd Inf.
which is stationed at Texas City,
Texas. MI. Schestak is well known
to many of u readers as he resided
here until a few years ago, when he
Joined the regular army. He is a
brother of Joe Schestak with the Con-
saolidate Coal Company.
In his letter he takes issue with
the article which appeared in Harp
er's Weekly some time ago entitled
s"The Honor of the Army" He said
the article went to great length in
discrediting the army, by carefully, Sc
Letting Q few. Special instances and
citing them as showing the low stand
ard of the army. To read the article
he thinks that some of the citizens
would look upon the men offthe uni
form Of the army as a disgrace to
the nation. In fairness Mr.. Schestak
admits that there are. unfortunately
some tough characteristic the army, in
the navy and in the marine corps, but
there are a great many rowdies who
are not in any of these three organi-
cations.
The reason why the characters of
the ''rough-necks" are SO much more
conspicuous in the service than in
civil life, says the writer, is due to
the fact that laws are strictly and
thoroughly enforced and all things
