MAN MAKES GETAWAY WITH
TYPEWRITER FROM SCHOOL

On Wednesday afternoon a man
got in conversation with several pu-
pills of st. Mary's Paroc-1ia1 school,
inquiring the kind of typewriter they
use and 1t is also believed he asked
If the machines needed repairing.
Shortly afterward the man appeared
in the school and said he came to
repair the machine and inasmuch as
a repair man was expected. he was
allowed to go ahead with his work.
After locking over several machines
he took one of the typewriters apart
and then stated the works needed a
thorough oiling, and it would be nee
essary for him to go to a garage, as
he could not use gasoline in the
school. The sister sent one of her
pupils with the man. Upon arriving
at the garage he turned to the boy
and told him that he might as well go
back to the school as it would take
h m an hour to finish his work The
boy returned but the repairer and the
machine did not.
The police were notified, but no
trace of the man could be found.

CHANGES PROPOSED
IN COUNTY ROAD PROGRAM

THAT the county engineer be d.
rected to supervise all repair work
where done under specifications in
like manner as he now does the per-
manent road work.
That the Road Supervisor be en-
powered to employ q certain number
of men-known as the road gang or
gangs-and that they be under the
immediate supervision of the Chair
man Of the Road Committee, who will
in turn be attentive to the requests of
the other FreehOlders. This will CEN
tralize the work done by the road
gangs and the chairman of this COM
mittee will always be In a position to
know how to regulate the work SO that
his appropriation will be prematurely
exhausted. Either a definite appro-
priation should be made for gang re-
pair or, II appropriations from in
dfvidual roads are used for gang re-
pair. such expenditures should be
agreed upon before starting of work
by the County Engineer, who would
be responsible for total expenditure,
as complying with the Dad schedule
adopted at the beginning of the year.
Nothing herein contained Is to be
construed in any way 10 reflect on
previous o policies-as to them no
comment is offered-it being the In
tention herein to formulate a definite
policy for the future.
"A slight variation OF the above
program can be easily effected where
certain districts seem to call foEe-the
maintenance Of the patrol system,
but such system should be restricted
80 far as possible and where applicable
effected through the medium of the
chairman of the Road Committee in
order to keep the road expenditures
centralized.
VERY truly yours,
