"Other Fellow" Seems to Have Gotten
Wrong Impression of Quesies Pub
lished Two Weeks Ago.
ASKED FOR INFORMATION ONLY

Pleasantville, N. j., Mar. II, 1920.
Editor Pl%easantville Press:
Last week Taxpayer requested in
formation in regard to some city af-
fairs, notably the salaries paid the
city officials. l thank you, too, for the
information 0 have so kindly pre-
pared and presented to US.
In return, will you kindly show the
other side of the picture by answer
ing the following questions?
What are the present day wages of
the men living in P~leasantville who
are carpenters, bricklayers, plasterers,
painters, trolley employees, and clerks
in some of the leading institutions,
and especially those employed in coun-
ty positions?
What is the yearly (average) in
come of those heroic men and women
who are maintaining our city stores?
What are the salaries of those other
heroes who lead the people in our
fourteen churches?
How much none earned by our
mechanics is spent in our city stores
or invested in our city financial insti-
tutions?
Who are the so-called politicians
who have placed our city in it's pres
ent financial embarrassment?
OTHER FELLOW.
"Other Fellow" asks questions that
it is impossible for us to answer posi-
lively for they deal with the private
affairs of people, whereas Taxpayer"
asked questions that dealt with public
affairs and are largely matters of pub
lie record. Besides, we think "Other
Fellows" idea of Taxpayers" inten-
ton in p~ropounding her questions is
erroneous. 1t was not to show up
these matters, but real information
that she sought. Taxpayer" is one
of the leading ONE of our city and
in a private letter to the editor which
accompanied the communication she
said that a number of ladies were as

low csrtlin plthb In every room.
There arc certain parts OF the floor
that ara seldom walked upon and
others that recsive constant wear.
The path between two doors Is. OF
course. one OF these that receive much
wear. and the space under desk or
piano chair is another. so when YOU
arrange your floor coverings see that
the very choice rug does not lie di-
rectly in line OF this path OF heavy
traffic
one of the advantages of rugs over
carpets is that they can be rolled up
from the floor very easily. Make a
point always to have the rugs you
prize highly rolled back and kept well
out of the way days when cleaning Is
going on and dust is flying, even
though they are to be cleaned them
selves before the cleaning is over.
Now. of course. very heavy beating
or incessant cleaning. even with a
vacuum cleaner. tends to wear out a
rug. buH dust and dirt allowed to re-
main in a rug wears it out much
more rapidly. Therefore. never allow
the dirt to remain in the rug when It
is laid away. Remember. too. that d
good rug is made Of fast colors and
that the best way to clean it is to
wash il with. water and a mild whit e
soap. So If you get spot on the rug
it is easy to have it cleaned simply
by scrubbing it with little warm
water and blan,h soap.
