On pasture slopes so barren. on the

Where the purple hooded thisties

Past the "old Man OF the HIM. OF

From certain point below him. you
could catch his rugged face
Just a profile in a rock, yet plainly
seen:
Turning wistful eyes to westward.
where the sunset fires blaze.
He is guardian Of the hillside,
proud, serene.
Summers summed and winters whit
encd-sprinRs have bloomed
and years have gone;
on the river still the Old Man
bends his gaze.
Such old tales as he might tell us.
could those granite lips I'M

Quaint old Indian tales OF former

White the shore line is with clam
shells. duG by Indians long ago.
When the fats lay cleaning bare

When the turn brought shoals Of
fishes. how the hreczes must

As the birch canoes on ruffling
waves would ride,
still tho tides ebb to the ocean. still
they food the marshes DER;
And the Old Man. steadfastly, waits

To the Editor OF The Timce- Dispatch.
Sir,-A tew months ago Mayor
Ainslie and his advisory board held
several conferences to devise ways
ana means to reduce the expenses
OF the city. After careful deiibera-
ton they decided tina the most feas-
lble plan was to cut the wages Of
the poorest paid employees Of the city.
Several months have elapsed since
mis- action was taken. things have.
begun TO go smoothly enough. and
evcrybody--with the exception Of the
poorest paid Of the city employees
has forgotten just how the Mayor
and his advisers saved the dag.
II appears that last week some Of
the members of the Council have die =
covered that in some way unexpected
wealth has accrued To the credit OF
our great city. These men. casting
about for a way TO dispose Of this
surplus which, please remember. was
no doubt the result OF cutting the
poorest paid or the city's employees.
have decided that the best plan 10
Ee, rid OF excess wealth is TO apply
IL TO the salaries OF some of our
officers who arc already getting more
than the vast rank and Sf1le Of those
on the pay roll. 1t is proposed TO in =
crease the.pay Of each Of four men
$500. making a total OF $4,000. or
enough TO go long ways toward
paying interest on proposed bonded
indebtedness for the Improvement OF
crratir Shockoc Creek.
To sa: nothing OF the plight Of the
poorest paid. who elected our Coun-
climen, or helped To do IL. do you
not think that advocates OF the pro-
posed increase are utterly incOnSist -
emit? Will the Board OF Aldermen
concur? y. r. II.
