Henry A. Bishop, Frederick A Strong
and jacob B. Klein to the Board of
Library Commissioners, their terms
beginning July 1, 1920.
q Attorney John A. Cornell appear
ing for the owners of property at the
corner of Fafrview avenue and Main
street, requested that the proposed
widening of Fairview avenue begin at
a point ITS feet from Main street, as
his clients had made Improvements
on their property which would be
worthless if the street was widened
to Main street and called attention OF
the board that they had granted a
similar application made by owners
of the opposite side of Main street
Resolutions were introduced calling
for an ordinance which would pro-
vide that where building lines were
once established they could not be
discontinued without the written con-
sent of rs per cent. of the property
owners on the streets affected.
Another resolution called for an
ordinance prohibiting the filling OF
gasoline tanks on public service mo-
tor vehicles while the engine was IN
m otion/and notification to all deal
ers in gasoline in the city that such
an ordinance had been adopted.
A hearing will be held at the next
meeting on the petition to close
Church lane. The next meeting of the
board will also consider the PROPOSE
ton to pass an ordipance prohibiting

The political machine which oper-
ates the Board of Aldermen never
worked smoother than it did at the
meeting last night when the grist of
new business and half finished pro-
duct was put through without h1tch
or grind. Not an objection was
made to the passage or disposition of
the numerous petitions, resolutions or
claims that were presented by AS
sistant City Clerk Robert A. Jones
and which were referred by Mayor
Wilson to their usual and accustomed
committees for action
The only stoppage came when the
resolutions calling for the issuing of
$40.0 900 notes in anticipation of the
sale of school bonds, the money to
be used to pay for school construction
before the sale of the bonds and the
other resolution which asked for au-
thority to issue $2o5,OoO deficiency
notes to be used in paying current ex-
penses of the city, were referred to
the committee on ordinances and the
aldermen took a ten minute recess to
allow the board to formulate the or
dinance which would legally author
lie these issues.
Both series of notes were author
lied by the Aldermen after the
committee had returned with their
report in favor of the resolutions. All
of the notes will bear interest at the
rate of per cent. per annum and
will be dated Aug. 4, and will run for
one year from date. They can not
be sold below par.

new HAVEN KICKS
ON GAS INCREASE

{ New Haven, Aug. 3.-As far as the
Board of Aldermen is concerned, the
service charge for gas just put into
effect by the New Haven Gas Light
company is not to go unchallenged
The board upon motion of AFderma n
Richard Kenyon, at it's regular month
~ meeting last night passed resolu-
ton directing the lighting committee
to wait upon the proper authorities OF
the gas company, and inform them of
such popular protest against the insti-
tuition of the service charge of the
company as has reached the members
of the board.
Alderman Kenyon stated that the
service charge is unfair and inequit-
able to the small consumers of gas,
who could better afford to pay an in
crease in the cost of gas itself, because
they could economize upon their total
consumption, but he opposed a. fiat in
crease as absolutely unfair.

The park board asked that $4,000
in notes be issued and proceeds used
to put a hard faced surface on the
Barnum drive from the bath mouse
down to the lighthouse. In the letter
accompanying the request the park
commissioners said that TINS work

lurements, each of which makes a tre-
mendous effort to cause her to swerve from
her purpose and detain her until it shall be,
too late.
There are the Sirens with their wondrously
sweet, enchanting voices. The princess al
most forgets, and is about to turn and
yield to the invitation to sit herself down
and listen to their song. But, like Chris
tfan in Pilgrims Progress she buckles
on tighter the armor Of her resolution and
presses forward toward the goal, where
she is'to find the saving plant for her be-
loved prince.
Then she comes to sea, and again she
finds herself confronted with an enticing
invitation to accompany the Queen of the
Mermaids to her Castle of Marvels beneath
the waves. The day is hot, and the way
has been long and fatiguing, and the water
looks, oh so cool and refreshing. Almost
the tired, footsore princess loses sight of tn
quest she is after. But only for second
does she wayer. Then up she springs and
goes on and on, hurrying away out of ear
shot Of the tempting pleas which the Mer-
maid Oneen and hr- beautecus princesses are
- tunefully sending after her. ....
The Washington herald., 1920-08-15

his own rage impelled claws and disappears.
Cave gnomes, eltn and forest sprites also
cross the path of the princess, each seeking
by some new device to wean her from her
determined course. In vain Now and then
they may cause her to falter for an instant;
but the picture of the sufferings of the prince
.'" is so dear to her heart impels her ever
forward, onward upward.
Once she falls in with fairies of the field
and asks them, as she has asked so many
others, to tell her where the wondrous flower
is with its healing properties.
Not all of these fairies are friendly. Some
bribed by the malignant spirit which had
caused the princes illness, try to misdirect
the princess. In the end, however, she
learns the truth and finds the coveted lily
of life. And thus the life of her Prince
Charming is saved. Nor is it superfuous to
add that, as happens in all fairy tales, they
are happy ever after" for the inevitable
marriage in this instance is one of the most
superb and spectacular pageants of the play,
and the Rumanian queens beautiful and
poetic fairy fantasie ends in an actual ''blaze
of glory"
