NUptials--Principnls Organize.
Because Of the refusal OF children
to obey the mo coastng" mandates
In regard to the use of small wag-
ons, scooters and roller skates on
sidewalks, the ordnance, which calls
for a penalty of $40 and costs, vii
be enforced, according TO an an.
rouncement today by Chief of Po-
lice Ernest T. Belden.
During the last few weeks, acct.
dents resulting from the carelessness
OF youngsters on these vehicles have
been reported. One man suffered a
broken elbow and several have suf-
fered sprained wrists and ankles IN
their collisions with scooters or 1T
tie carts, which have suddenly ap-
peared like streaks down inclined
walks. AS the practice has been on
the increase. despite numerous warn
ings, the police believe that the Of
tenders must receive punishment
and that parents should also have
the matter brought more forcibly to
their attention. Hence, future Of
Tenders will pay for the pleasure Of
making pedestrians jump for their
life.
Evening School Opens
Evening sessions opened last night
at the East Bristol and ForestyiIlc
schools with registrations OF % and
- pupils, respectively. Because Of
the insufficient number of appli-
cants, the millinery course was dis
continued at the Forestvillc school.
The main evening school at the
Southsde building will open to-
night when q big registration is en-
pected. Principal Carleton Beck
with anticipates more successful
year than ever as advance indica-
tons are that the registration will
be much larger this season.
Seven Per Cent Greater
School expenses will he 10 per
cent greater next year. according TO
the budget which was approved at
the joint session of the board OF ed
ucation aud the city council on
Tuesday night. This increase is
made up principally by increases In
teachers salaries as many valuable
members OF the personnel were re-
tanned by assurance of larger wages
next term.
Although $6.6iS.49 vas approved
for buying equipment for the new
industrial arts course at the high
ischool and apparently the board of
education had won battle with
the council, the matter is not set
tied yet, according TO city officials.
a special appropriation must be
made at once, If the course Is to
start immediately and the council Is
the only body TO make such an ap-
preparation. As matters stand, the
board of education is assured Of its
equipment in next years apprupriH-
tton. but is apparently poWcrlcss
for immediate action. As matters
stand, local people believe that the
fuef will lie continued by the pres
"nt council so that the now council
can decide for itself whether or not
it wants 10 pay for the extra equip.
ment.
