School Pupils Stranded
Some of the pupils of the public
school here residing on or near the
bus routes who came to school on Fri
day are stranded and unable to get to
their homes because of the blocking of
the highways by immense snow drifts,
and have been staying at the homes of
H. E. Liston and A. ]. Richter in Ac-
cident.
Miss Ola King, primary teacher in
the local school, who underwent an
operation for appendicitis at Memorial
Hospital in Cumberland, has returned
to her home here and is convalescing.
Owing to the extreme cold weather
and storms that have been prevailing
for days upon end, only few of the
pupils of the public school in Acct
dent have been in attendance at the
classes recently. The roads are nearly
all closed, so the BUSES are unable to
make their trips as usual.
With the thermometer registering
zero or less it has been hard matter
to heat the school building so as to
make it comfortable for the pupils and
teachers. "-

was completely wiped out today.
Controller Daniel J. Leary forward

pany q check for $l.250,000. repre-
senting the entire total Of the out
standing temporary loans against
the municipality.
The loan Of 81, 250,0 was negoti-

rowed to carry the city along UNI
til the receipt or the October taxes.
The interest rate obtained on the
loan was one Of the lowest in the
citys history, being only a fraction

No More Loans Now
It Is not expected that the city
will have to negotiate another
temporary loan for q month or

With no floating Indebtedness for
a period of a month or more the

that would have gone to the New
