COMPANY URGES
NEED OF NEW NOZZLE
One OF Shut-Of Pattern Would Save
Much Damage From Excess
of Water.

The regular session OF Common
Council was held Monday night, Pres
ident Willis presiding. Present were
Councilmen Blackman, Schmidt, Ad-
ans and Derr, Clerk Andrews and
Mayor Adams.
The Mayor recommended that he
considered it a good business policy
for the City to borrow money from
the Sinking Fund, now that body is
in working order, and save paying in
terest to the banks. A conference
will be held with the School Board in
reference to same.
A communication was received from
the P~leasantville Heat, Light & Pow
er Co., in which they agreed to re-
new the present lighting contract
with the City for five years at the
same prices as at present paid, viz:
Arc light, all night service, $75 per
year; service until midnight, $50. In
candescent light, all night, SIS per
year; until midnight, $40. The con-
tract will be submitted at mex meet
ing.
A resolution was passed authoriz-
ing the City Clerk to assign, transfer,
and set over or cancel all or any prop
erty, land or real estate held or ac-
quired through non-payment of taxes,
upon payment of taxes, costs, inter
est and expenses of same to said
Clerk.
Raymond G. Ireland, in the inter
est of the Fire Company, recommend
ed that the company be furnished with
a shut-off nozzle. He very clearly ex-
planned where much damage to prop
erty might be avoided with this noz-
zle, and it was readily apparent to
Council that the need of such an ad-
junct to the fire equipment was ur-
gent, but because of the fact that the
amount appropriated for the Fire ac-
count has nearly been exhausted, the
matter had to be carried over until
funds are available.
Mr.. Rudolf, representing the At
lantic City Press, presented the usual
appeal to the city to take a page in
that papers Easter edition. No ac-
ton was taken in the matter by Coun-
Gil.
The property committee was au-
thorized to provide adequate lights
for the fire apparatus and also to Sc
lect someone to order necessary sup
plies for the apparatus when the
above committee is not within call.
The following bills were approved
for payment:
Road Account - Samuel Price,
$14.65; w. Coleman, 1925; Good

Poor Speculation,

but in practice the pursuit is some
times unpleasantly painful. Should

few capsules in which to take your
butter, or inform the landlady that she
does not really keep her boarders

that they look longer. you may win

and mother were dead. She was a
very good little girl and did not COM
plain, but one day when she did not
have any breakfast or dinner she went
into grove not far from the house
and cried.
Presently she saw an iron kettle
walking toward her, and its short legs
looked so queer moving along the
ground she laughed.
There was spoon in the kettle, and
1t made clatter as the kettle walked
along. 1t stopped in front of her
Don't cry, little girl" it said. DRY

the kettle jumped up and hung by
its handle on bush. Now get some

pour it into me. Then go to the end of

and four to the right. There you will
find some potatoes under a bush.

WHO WAS ROBINSON cRUsoE?
Not Much Known of Alexander Sci.
kirk, Born in Largo, Scotland
Was Extraordinary Man.
One is sometimes tempted to parody

One is sometimes tempted to parody
Kipling's famous words, and ask,
What do they know of Crusoe. who
only Crusoe know?" For it is a sad
fact that, apart from hazy notion
that the original of this world famous
character was drawn from one Alex
ander SelkiTk, little or nothing is
known of most extraordinary man,
London Answers states.
Selkirk was born in the little Fife
shire village of Largo, in 1876 and
from almost his earliest days the un-
conventional adventurous spirit of the
boy brought forth the wrath of his
neighbors.
When he was about eighteen he de-
cided that he would go to sea and, hav-
ing refused utterly to follow his ia
theirs trade of shoemaking, he quit
his native village. Two years later
we find him Cat his own request) be-
ing marooned on a lonely island after
violent quarrel with the captain of
the ship on which he was making his
second voyage.
For four years and four months he
remained there, but finally turned up
again at Largo, while his parents were
at church. So to church went AleXan-
der, and seated himself directly be-
hind his father and mother. The good
lady, on turning round and recogniz-
ing her son, caused the service to be
interrupted by her cries of astonish-
ment.
While at home, Selkirk fell in love
with and married Sophie bruce. But
he did not settle down. After very
short while they both disappeared
from Largo.
Nothing more was heard of them I'M
til one day, years later, young WON
an arrived in Largo, saying she was
Alexander Selkirk's second wife, and
had come to claim his belongings.
She proved that Sophie bruce had
died some years previously and that
now Alexander himself had also
passed away on board his majesty's
ship Weymouth, on which he was a
lieutenant.

Il suppose It was

suppose 1t was"
Scruton ruminated a little, broke
into his offensive laugh, and checked
1t instantly of his own accord. This
is really interesting" he croaked
You get to London-at what time
was it?"
"Nominally three-twenty-five; but
the train ran thirteen minutes iate,"
said Hilton Toye.
And you're on the river by what
time?" Scruton asked Cazalet.
Il walked over Hungerford bridge,
took the first train 60 Surbiton, got a
boat there, and just dropped down with
the stream. dom suppose the whole
thing took me very much more than
an hour"
Aren't you forgetting something's"
said Toye.
Yes, l was, 1t was | who tele-
phoned to the house and found that
Craven was out motoring; so there
was no hurry"
Yet you weren't going to see Henry
Craven?" murmured Toye.
Cazalet did not answer. His last
words had come in a characteristic
burst; now he had his mouth shut
tight, and his eyes were fast to Scru-
ton. He might have been in the wit
ness-box already, a doomed wretch
cynlcally supposed to be giving evil
dence on his own behalf, but actually
only barring his neck by inches to the
rope, under the joint persuasion of
judge and counsel. But he had one
friend by him still, one who had
edged little nearer in the pause.
But you did see the man you went
to see?" said Scruton.
Cazalet paused. Il don't know.
Eventually somebody brushed past me
in the dark. 1 did think then-but l
can't swear to him even now!"
Tell us about it."
DO you mean that, Scruton? Do
you insist on hearing all that hap
pened? I'm not asking Toye; he can
do as he likes. But you, Scruton-
you've been through lot, you know
you oughtsto have stopped in bed-do
you really want this on top of all?"
GO ahead" said Scruton. 'Tll have
drink when you've done; somebody
give me cigarette meanwhile"
Cazalet supplied the cigarette,
struck a match, and held it with I'M
faltering hand. The two mems eyes
met strangely across the flame.
'I'll tell you all exactly what hap
pened; you can believe me or not as
you like. You won't forget that
