stores will have thrift stamps to give
away and sell on that day. All mer-
chants should print cards asking peo-
pie to take thrift stamps for change.

and pressing AS she does does not do
tailoring 1t was agreed that only q pro-
portionate amount should be charged
her. Many plants having been
made about the danger of poisonous
vines and the unsightly appearance of
brush and coarse grass on the lots at
the southeast corner of Rio Grande and
Arctic avenues the clerk was instructed
to notify the owner 10 immediately
abate the nuisance. 1t was decided to
have no baseball this summer, as it
would TAXI a thousand dollars to put
the diamond on the beach in order,
Mrs. Tnllidge placed a large PROPOSE
ton before the commissioners, too big
indeed, for them to handle. 1t was
nothing less than a request that the
city take over all the rights, title, mon
ey and appurtenances belonging to the
association organized for the promotion
and com pletion of the Samaritan hos
pital. Three or four thousand dollars
had been raised several years z in
furtherance of the project. This money
is In the possession of the treasurer.
The commissioners informed Mrs. Tul-
lidge that they were powerless TO aid
her, advising her TO take the matter
up with the stockholders of the hos
pital. Another proposition from Mrs.
Tullidge shared a similar fate. 1t has
been a pet idea of hers for some years
that q probation officer of her own sex
should be employed to patrol the beach
front and boardwalk, to safeguard chill
dren and others; but the commissioners
could not see their way clear to accede
to her wishes, and these duties will
continue to devolve on the shoulders of
our police force. Mrs. Tullidge laid
strong emphasis upon the importance
and necessity of watching the children
along the beach; which led the Mayor
to remark that the parents often need
ed watching more than the child rem.
This statement was allowed to go un-
challenged, and in consequence the
point might have been considered we'll
taken. Undismayed by these decisions,
Mrs. Tullidge very courteously took her
leave.
Perhaps the most serious action of
the day vas recorded when a resolution
was adopted calling upon City Solici-
tor Hand TO draft an amendment to
the ordinance relative to obstr1ctions
on sidewalks, making it strong enough
to eliminate ALL signs, fruit and vege-
table stands. The i'm IMPOSITION of this
task upon the solicitor, caused him to
knit his brows 10 an extraordinary de-
gree. The report of Frank Lloyd,
auditor of the water accounts, was ac-
cepted.
