Because of the weather being so disagreeable 1t is probable that many persons waited flor the next session, which will be the Hast, and which will be held next Sat- urday, Sept A.
 A number of candidates or those Interested, were on the job Saturday helping get. people from their dis Aricts to the town hall to be made" George Barnes was present at times, and George Carroll from the Eighth was on the job and very optimistic regarding his chances: It is apparent that because of the discord developed sat the first big meeting of the Civic association in the Eighth that the dis trict is really split three ways.

 present Safety First effort was to try
 to head off a large percentage of the

 Rumors still persist that H. c. Lowell will be a candidate for the council, especially since he has filed no petition for nomination for his old Job of town clerk, and many believe that he is popular enough to carry his district, because of the accom- taken toward those who had any business with the town clerks office.
