many Of the changes which the school
beard is complaining Of.
Mcneil has left the city. Nobody
seems to know where he is.
1t also developed yesterday that a
Tulsa automobile dealer, OF known
financial standing, was interested in
the firm Of Hutchinson & Co. and
financed the contractor i'm building
the jitney schools. He is a former
wholesale. lumbcrman and purchased
the material used i'm the unit schools,
it Is said. It is rumored that he is
prepared to sustain every action OF
the contractor.
No Loss Says Lyons.
Thomas D.. Lyons, attorney for the
school board, yesterday said that even
if the schools have to be torn Town
and replaced by entirely new struc-
lures the school district will not be
the loser, except in the time lost. The
builders bond filed by Hutchinson n
co. is sufficient 10 protect the school
board against loss, he declared.
II Mcneil, "A man appointed by the
school board and representing them,
authorized the contractor to make the
various NUdIlkt0 'DllIlAlII'I vi INV
permitted the work to be done with
out protest, il is likely that the con-
tractor will have "a good case, but that
does not satisfy the taxpayers and
school patrons. If the board itself Is
at fault the citizens will find il out,
as every detail of the scandal is slowly
coming to light, and there is no tell
ing who will be involved in the end.
Tho searchlight has been thrown
upon every person connected with the
building OF the schools, from the
president Of the board down to the
architect, and the facts will have to
be known.
Hutchinson declared yesterday that
he had never been officially notified
Ly the board of the alleged faults in
the buildings he constructed. His con-
tract provides hat he must so be
notified in writing by the building
superintendent. Since Mcneil re-
signed there has been no building SUI
p~erintcndcnt, and although the board
was advised by IFS counsel last Friday
night TO appoint one, they have taken
no such action. Until this Is done
no steps can be taken against the con-
tractor. The board has placed the
architects who designed the buildings
to work in the capacity Of superin-
tendcnts on salary but this does not
comply with the provision In the con-
tract which plainly specifies "a build
ing superintendent and means but
one man.
Someone is at fault. 1t may be one
man. but the indications are that sew
Cral persons are involved in the deal
Developments are expected to arise
in quick succession from this time on.
The school board has shifted the
responsibility to the building COM

Grain that lies on the ground, that
the hail and the winds and rain have

coming from the interior of a box car

No one moved for a moment.
That's a dirty shame" remarked
a slick-looking travelling man to some
other knights of the grip.
why don't some of these sleepy
natives let that fellow out?" he asked.
The natives only turned their
heads.

The traveller.
The travelling men held a brief con-

box car. with a sCantling they broke

AS they started back to the depot
they heard some one laughing.
"Haw, haw haw." guffawed the
natives.
They pointed TO a cab driver, who
was also doubled with laughter. II
was he who made the voice come
from the box car. He is II of the

the first and tenth of the month, take

potential capacity Of the well, that
is, hat in any day Of "a hours the
well shall not be permitted to flow

This order of the commission is the
most important to the oil or gas in
dustry of the state since the promul-
cation Of the conservation oil order.
In the hearings held on the gas situa-
ton it was stated that the public was
not getting the use of more than 10
per cent Of the gas coming from the
ground. At such a rate of waste il
was contended that the gas resources
Of the state would be entirely eX-

the application Of the mud laden fluid
to prevent the escape of gas while
further drilling in or through such

Where oil and gas are both found in

we strive to do the more important part first.
 ! Frequently citizens come to us in
 various frames of mind because we dO
 not put a stop to something or other
 which is objectionable to them and
 possibly others. If it proves that
 there is no law under which We can
 interfere, they insist we should see
 that S law is smade-regardless wheth-
 CT it interferes with state or personal
 rights; should we not know of the
 nuisances then-well, we often wish
 We had known.
 The health department is the infant
 department of the city in point or
 years. It is just out of it's swaddlng
 clothes. But it has come to stay in
 the interest of every one within the
 city and developed to be one of our
 chief departments. It does not seek
 sympathy nor does it avoid just crit
 icism but it does want true co-opera-
 ton on the part of all citizens. Civ"
 it the criticism that is stimulating and
 constructive, not the insinuation that
 is depressing and destructive to the

 Europe when it was civilized, the

 per cent. of our own cities rank their , health departments as being of chief 1 importance? This is notwithstand- ! ing the fact that a health department 1 has nothing showy or handsome to offer in the way of beautiful build l ings, streets, schools or parks. The l work of health department is neces- l sarily of a nature that is not on view as is the work of many departme ents. Of not the least importance is the system of records. of our work, and 1 the time required to keep them up. 1 The credit for much of this work is ! due to our stenOgrapher who, start ' ing with the work soon after the .;e-

There was no personal interest on his part as g citizen to help abate such nuisances by reporting it to us, for it was with some difficulty he was per Suaded to state in which building it was, feeling it was our business to find it. He spoke of it merely to emphasize his query as to what good the department is
 This case is really worth the space to analyze for it may fit many such remarks regarding us. There are ap- proximately 5.20O buildings in New Britain, of which about 4,7O0 are oc- cupied as distinct dwelling and tene- ment houses, Or in combination with a, store. As already outlined, the scope of the work of the department
 is large, including tuberculosis work, plumbing inspection, tenement house
