paratively less noisy Fourth here
Thursday is an indication Of a
growing sentiment for a ban on the
fireworks.
The Fourth here was unusually
quiet for holiday on which fire.
works were sold and although there
was desultory setting off of fire.
works here Tuesday and Wednesday
it is still believed that the discus
sion about banning fireworks caused
number of residents not to pur-
chase the fireworks this year.
The borough was fortunate again
yesterday in that no serious &C.
cident resulted. Another factor which
may have contributed to the APP
parent diminishing in volume Of fire.
works exploded here is the fact that
so many residents are on vacation
/, now or are away for just the day.
Just what the situation in regard
to sale here will be next year is
not known as no announcement con-
corning 1t has yet been made by
Warden John j. Sheridan.
Asks Cooperation
Dog Warden Joseph Hanley today
announced he has received a num-
Der Of complaints from residents
concerning dogs who have been al
lowed to roam at will and have torn
up gardens.
He minds that residents should
either train their dogs to keep out
of gardens or keep near their own
premises, or keep them tied up. He
said considerable damage has been
done and asked cooperation Of dog
owners in this respect so that 1t will
not continue.
Funeral of Mrs. Dea
The funeral of Mrs. Mary Dea,
widow of William Dea. of So Coen

church will not be held tomorrow,

vacationing out of town will return
