 The contract providing for an all- night lighting service every night in the year was signed by borough off, cials at their meeting Tuesday eve ming in agreement with officials of the Peoples Light and Power company The contract extends over a period of one year from May 1.
 The contract that the borough off, cials have been authorized to make with the Crystal Water company has not been executed as yet. In some quarters the opinion prevails that the borough ought not to make another contract, but should procede to the ac- quirement of the Crystal Water com pany's plant in accord with provisions of the law. In other quarters this plan >f having the borough buy the water works system is opposed because it is felt that the borough cannot buy it and hope to get as much in value as it will have to pay for. This contention is based upon the assumption that an excessive price will be asked and that even following the prescribed routine the borough cannot get ownership al what many would consider a reasona- ble price.
 What may be done about the matter is conjectural at this time, some bor- ough officials say.
