THEY SAVED $4,000
FOR THEIR VILLAGE
Luther d. Beckley, A Former Barre Man,
and Another Official Have Success in
Administering Affairs Of High
land Park, Mich.

The Detroit NewsTribune of recent
date tells of the success of a former
Barre man, Luther d. Beckley, as SUI
perintendent of public works in High,
land Park, suburb of Detroit, Mich.
Highland Park, although having an es.
timated population of 22,Ol7, still retains
village form of government and good
deal of the administration comes under
the direction of Mr., Beckley who with
another official has saved the village over
! 100000 in road construction during the
season just passed.
The NewsTribune says in part
"On next Monday night will be made
to the village council of Highland Park
report OF an experiment that has been
eagerly awaited for several weeks The
experiment was that of having NUM-
cipal department do all the foundation
construction work on streets being paved
instead of letting the work out to con.
tractors. The report will show that this
experiment has been exceedingly sue
cessful-that the plan has saved the tax
payers OF the village more than $4,000
during the summer season.
During the summer new pavements
have been laid on Is streets. The vii
lage has not attempted to do any of the
surfacing work, but has contented itself
with handling the foundations of II of
them. 1t is quite possible that next year
the village will do the entire work. The
foundation work done during the 1913
summer if done by the lowest bidding
contractors would have amounted to
Sll702l.a3 Done by the municipal con-
struction department it cost the village
$50, 653.92 less than this figure.
Efficiency Counts"
"Whe street is to be paved, speci-
lcations for foundation work and for
the surfacing are prepared and separate
bids advertised for. The surfacing work
goes to the lowest bidder The founda-
ton work, If it seems probable it can be
done ut the price, is turned over to the
department of public works, of which l..
ID. Beckley is superintendent. The con-
department Is a branch OF the
public works department and is in charge |
Of W. J, Storem. Members of the coun-
ell say it is due to the efficiency of these /
men that the undertaking has proved
so successful
"The question of municipal construc-
ion had been agitated for two years, but |
not until last spring did the council de-
,ide to make the experiment. The vii
age purchased a steam shovel, a lotion
team roller a large concrete mixer,
mall concrete mixer for making the
urbs and steel forms for moulding the
urbs. 1t represented an investment of
approximately $4,000 to $4,000 The
is in good condition to-day,
nd the earnings on each piece of work
lone has been charged two per cent of
he total cost Of the work for the wear
nd tear In addition to this an addi-
ional charge of 10 per cent OF the total
ost has been charged against the earn
ngs for overhead expenses"

a few minutes the old panther scream

back in the hole she had dug. She
was ready for fight. The panther came
straight for the bear. She gave one

was a fierce struggle, with screaming
and snarling. and in less than ten mill
