The Silly Season Arrives
 With New Common Council.

Debate still rages anent the atti- tude of Acting Mayor David L. Nair at the common council meeting Wednesday night when he remain ed quiescent while his office as president pro tenn. of the council vas virtually usurped. ...
 Two schools of thought have been created. One believes that Nai' should have insisted on his right 10 preside by proceeding to the ros- trum and demanding the gavel of Alderman Falk. The other group claims that, by maintaining a dig nified silence in the face of the trick played on him, Nair enhanced his prestige and gained many friends.
 The conduct of the opposition 10 Nair can be explained only, on the ground of pique over Alderman Johnson's having received sting ing defeat in his contest to become president pro tenn. After being whipped by Nar, Johnson was speeches.. And being speeches. is a new experience for the alderman from the fourth ward. His disap- pointment was acute. He was un- able to conceal his chagrin. He was stunned by Nair's victory and later,
 when he had recovered his equili- brium he charged that he had been knifed by associates who had prom ised to vote fer him.
 In the opinion of many with l whom the Observer has discussed the subject, the quarrel should have ended there. But apparently Nairs it further. Whether there was l conspiracy to deprive Nair of his rightful possession of the presiding officers chair is not known. But l subsequent events proved that some
 members of the council gave their | passive approval to the proceedings and failed 10 protest against the
 schoolboy travesty on justice which | followed.
 The common council, in theory at | least. is supposed to be the model for law observance. Its members
 are elected by the people to enact I laws for the administration of the
 community The council has it's own
 laws. If the members hold their
 own rules in contempt and sit by idly while a fellow member is de.
 prived of his rights, how can they
 expect the average individual to
 have respect for laws which they pass?
 It is useless to speculate on the
 motive which actuated Nair's op- | pcnents. Rumors have been heard
 which do no credit to the council
 or to the name of New Britain,
 rumors of things which run coun- 1 ter to the teachings of democracy.
 It is almost impossible to credit them. such violence do they do 10
 the American conception ~of far
 play. The smart boys who thought
 they were enjoying a laugh at the
 expense of the legally elected pres ident pro tenn. should know that in
 the minds of the citizenrY, they
 were guilty of tactics which do not 1 harmonize with manhood or adult
 responsibility.

City Hall Rejoices at Labor Bureau Change

Mayor Quigley's decision to trans fer the municipal labor bureau from city hall to the storeyard of the board of public works on Harvard street won for the mayor the thanks of scores of city employas who have been fighting off distrac- tions from their work for the pas. six months.
 The business of the mayors office is not that of an employment ser vice, and when it is recognized that this agency could operate as ef- ficiently in another part of the city it is hard to understand why it WIS placed in the already crowded main floor of city hall in the first place.
 Almost every day. fisticuffs,, pro- fanity and general uproar has been the rule since the labor bureau was CT eated. Jostling groups of men and boys, some of the latter coming for the excitement only have made 1t almost impossible for persons hav- ing business with the mayor to gain clii Cilll diiIC lO IllS olllCt NlS II and cigarette butts have filtered the marble floor and the walls only re- gently redecorated have been used tc scratch matches and for embry- onic artists of one type or another.
 Without doubt. the labor bureau has done immeasurable good. Hun dreds of families have been assistel over rocky stretches in the roadway Of life and many who might other wise have found it necessary io pauperize themselves and their families have, by obtaining pick and shovel work for a few weeks. pre- vented that stigma from attaching to their names.
 City hall employees grant all 5t this to be true, and they are a unlt iE wishing for its continuance, but not in city hall

 Looking Backward SCRIPTURE
 Memory Verse: With all thy getting. get understanding" (Proverbs 4:7).
 Read: Proverbs 4:1-7. MEDITATION
 Lord Haldane in his autobi- ography devotes his last chap ter to review. He wrote at seventy-two of his satisfying philosophy: "A good deal of my work has been little known. The best I can say for myself is that I have not been slack in either thought or action and that some substantial results have emerged from time to time." We ought never to dis turb ourselves about the quan- tity reputed to have been ours. or about our own prominence before the public. Our duty is to work without turning our eyes to the right or to the left from the ideals which alone can light up our faith. What is ours can be no more than the best quality of which we arc capable put into the effort to- ward the attainment of wha, we have set before our selves. Hesitation and un- happiness become replaced by a life that is tranquil because freed from dependence on cas- ual ups and downs"
 PRAYER
 Teach us, good Lord to serve Thee as Thou descrvest: to give and not to count the cost: to fight and not to heed the wounds: to toll and not to seek for rest; to labor and not to ask for any reward. save that of knowing that we do Thy will. Amen. ."-Loyola.

Senator Steel Favors New
 Building for Pioneers

It is an unfortunate fact that most of the one hundred resi- 1 dents of the Pioneers Home, are housed in an antiquated, fire trap building. Senator Will A. Steel believes that the time is Hast approaching when provi- sion should be made for enlarg- ed and safer quarters for these men who were so instrumental ! in the early development of the Territory.
 In the event of his renomina- tion and reelection, Senator Steel proposes to exert his in- fuence, at the next session of the Legislature, to secure the passage of a bill to authorize the construction of new and icommodious fire proof building lat Sitka, as dwelling place for the men who spend their declin- ing years at rest from the con- fct of life. Provision has al ready been made for the cost of a new building, and construc- rion should begin.
 In the 1927 session of the Le- gislature, Representative Ross
 of Fairbanks, introduced a Joint
 Resolution directing the Treas
 urer to set aside $15,000 each
 wear, to create fund for the
 erection of new buildings for the
 Pioneers Home. Senator Steel ),rged him to have the fund in creased, which he did, and the House passed the Resolution making the sum $25,000. Whel lit went to the Senate an amend ment was offered by Senatol S Steel to further increase th' E sum to $4O,OOO each year. Thi k was accepted and the Resolu ' tion then passed.
 N The Resolution then went t H the House, where the Senat s Amendment was immediatel B accepted. Thus the law wa 2 created, and when the Legisla s ture meets next March, the1 a will have accumulated $16O,O( N with about $15,OO0 interest.
