two councilmen were loudly urged to
mount the platform; both demurred.
but finally Mr.. Stevens arose, strobe

the chairman and secretary. Mr.. Mills
preferred the seat he had taken in
| the audience.
Mr.. Nelson addressed to Council
man Stevens a number of questions
concerning the city's finances. among
these being an inquiry as to what was
included in the $4,000 item in the
budget described as "sundries." The
councilman replied, naming several
things to be paid for. among these
being the city's part of the cost of
building the seawall, fill. ETC.. along
Beach street between Orange and
Magnolia. To the query about what
was meant by Publicity, $4,000.

that ii is to be used to defray ex

interested in municipal affairs. He
mentioned several things he termed
extravagances, and expressed his OPP
position to the proposed expenditure
of $4,000 for publicity purposes.
r. l.. Smith stood up and expressed
his great joy at seeing several hun

After the meeting had proceeded
