PROGRESS.

Within the past decade the growth
of Pleasantville has been marvellous.
With leaps and bounds it has forged
it's way ahead until it has become a
city of great prospects. The past
eighteen months has witnessed OF
the greatest periods of building activ-
ity in the history of the municipality.
More than three hundred homes have
been erected within that period, to
say nothing of business houses n
apartments. And, Notwithstanding
this large amount of additional nous
ing facilities, vacant houses are rare.
All of which speaks well for our city.
A progressive City administration
is striving hard to keep abreast OF the
times. With the new sewerage sys-
tenn complete and in operation, our
City Fathers have turned their atten-
ton to other improvements. A mod
ern motor driven chemical and hose
apparatus has Just been added to he
equipment of our Fire Department.
A new tractor has been provided for
the use of the Street Department, n
a new road scraper and dumping
truck have peer ordered to facilitate
the work of the same department.
New fire plugs are being added
throughout the city for the protection
of new residential sections. Superint
tendent Lovett, of the Pleasantv1He
Gas Co, is constantly improving and
enlarging the service of that company
to meet the increasing demands for
that commodity, and has recently had
installed a 81, Oo0-gallon oil tank to
insure adequate s~torageffor the large
quantity of oil NECESSARY in the manu-
facture OF eAs. The Electric Co. has
submitted plans to the Lighting Com
mittee of Council that will completely
change the present system of lighting
the city streets. Already some chan
ges have been made. Plans for a
modern new school to take care of the
over-crowded condition of our present
schools will soon be submitted for
bids, and it is anticipated that there
will be no part-time pupils when the
next school veal opens.
The chairmen of the several COM
mittees of Council are daily working
on plans for the betterment OF their
departments. Many large undertake
ings are under consideration. Alto
gether, the future prospects were new
er brighter than they are today. With
everyone working together the next
decade should bring results that are
astounding. Let there be no let up,
and the future will take care of itself.

Critics Praise "Gorgo, Romance
 of Old Athens

Every reader of that truly great and exquisite novel. Gorge. TO- nance of Old Athens by Charles Kelsey Gaines. must be glad that &t- tention has recently been recalled to 1t. Other books have been far more In the public eye during the twenty years since it first appeared, but of the few real masterpieces which American literature has produced Gorge" is surely one.
 Great indeed is the book that can make long vanished age and civil lizatton actually live again for It's readers.
 Such a book was Quo vadis," that made Rome of the time of Nero real and convincing; Bulwer long before had also painted life under the Elm pirs In his Last Days of Pompeii." But what these novels did for Rome, "Gorgo" and "Gorgo" alone has done adequately for ancient Greece.
 The Author
 Tu Gorge" Dr. Gaines, himself for many years a professor of Greek language and literature, the master of rarely beautiful English style and one who had travelled extensively among the very lands which ho de- pioted, told of the great death strug- gle between Athens and Sparta, which was the turning point of Hell. enio history.
 Familiar B'fgures

unsubstantial names-unt we read the book. Then they wholly take on life. There is Socrates, of all pagan philosophers the man in thought and life perhaps most near ly approached to Christ himself. and who. like Christ, paid with his life for his sublime, and fearless works and words. In ''Gorgo" ono gets to know Socrates intimately and more- over one is convinced that the Soc rates of "Gorgo" Is the real Socrates. There is Alcibiades, soldier, intrig- uer, and genius, the most brilliant rascal of Greek history. a&d how wonderfully "Gorgo" sketches him with all his daredevil charm. The spell of the great Pericles broods over the opening pages; tho shadow of Lysander, tho Spartan conqueror, hovers over the close. And likewise there are many more; and there are also maj Lhificent effects of broader local color.
 High Praise
 It has been said that no other historical ~o~9l. save Henry Es- mond." equals "Gorgo" in it's "at- mosphere," in its picture of hs life and spirit os past age. with none of the iabored pedantry that too
 
 historical novesl equal in its life, like characterization; It's figures. both real and fictitious. are flesh and blood. not stiff puppets.
 Perhaps the best historical novel sver writtens This is tho opinion of no less a parsonage than Lord Bryce about an American novel, in spite of alt the masterpieces of Scott, Bulwer. Kingsley, Dumas. and many other mighty world-name. The great Viscount Is not unique In his admiration of it. Mir. Irving Bacheller Mrs. Corra Harris. and numerous others whose opinions command attention and respect. have testified to the greatness of Gorge"
 One may hope that an adequate ap- preoiation of "Gorgo" will soon be established and that every intelligent citizens of our country will know ard honor this extraor 1a-y novel, whicl the words of LS Bryce wiould seem to set side by side with ''The Scarlet Letter" as ono of the Elories of American literature.
