Board of Health will not permit
the building of more sewers un-
til there is some assurance that
a sewage disposal plant is to be
built.
DISPOSAL PLANT VETO
Mayor Wright in vetoing the
latest Sewage Plant Disposal or
dinance, in his message to coun-
Gil, said in part: '"This is the
third ordinance your honorable
body has passed in regard to
the construction of a sewage dis
posal plant and each one has in
creased in the amount it takes
to build said plant.

ances | have stated my reasons

posed to placing a debt of sew

upon the citizens of Newark
without first giving them

gest the matter be put on the
ballot at the November cleo
tion."
The financing ordinance which
the foregoing communication
vetoed. was passed by unanim-
Gus vote of the City council
Sept. a.
CROSSING RESOLUTIONS
With unanimous action, the
members of council passed two
resolutions sponsored by the
Newark Civic Enterprise group,
and introduced by Council as a
whole, calling for a revamping
of the law governing the cost of
grade crossing elimination. Co
pies of these resolutions will be
sent to every city council and
board of commissioners in the
State of Ohio, augmenting a
statewide campaign in an effort
to change the existing law which
calls for municipalities and poll
tical subdivisions to pay 85 per
cent, and railroads Is per cent
of the cost of railway crossing
elimination. The resolution calls
for the expense to be placed on
a $3.50 basis.
MISCELLANEOUS
Councilman Frank Stare, Jr.,
told members of Council that
the president of the Cherry Val
ley school, P. T. A., had asked
for a school light in the interest
of safety, to be placed at that
school. He presented a motion,
which was concurred in by coun-
Gil, that the finance committee
find the money in order to make
such installation. The motion
passed.
Stare further suggested that
the Clerk of Council write the
Newark Chamber of Commerce,
suggesting that body do all in
it's power toward bringing some

high, say members of the board.
A petition from a group in
Madison township was acted on,
asking for a transfer to the
Madison school district. The
board voted to grant the trans
fer, so that children wishing to
attend high school from that
district will be able to secure
transportation on the Madison
school bus. Madison township
has no high school. 1t was
pointed out that the tuition stu
dents from the area would bal
ance up for the loss of tax
money, and the transportation
problem would be solved, as it
would be up to Madison town
ship to see that transportation
was furnished TO students wish
ing to attend the Newark high
school.

Asked what the birds were worth, Mr. Spath
stated "A birds are bred along lines the same
as that used by specialists in raising pure bred
chickens The pigeons are worth from $25 to
$500 per pair, depending on their breeding and
developed homing instinct"
The races are run weekly during certain pc
rods of the year according to Mr.. Spath, who has
been employed in the capacity of official convoy
for the past 25 years. He is by occupation
mill worker, but his hobby is homing pigeons, and
to use his own expression he "love's it."
Last Sunday the same birds released
from Xenia, Ohio, in what is called the 2O0-mile
airline race. This week they were released from
Greenfield, Ind, still 100 miles farther west and
is known as the 800 mile race
The same birds moved gradually farther
away from the home loft. Their speed of flight
is kept track of, distance covered in the number
of yards per minute flown which may be from
900 to 1900. Trophies awarded for each race
to the bird covering the distance to the home loft
in the shortest period of time, figured by the
number of yards covered per minute.
The farther away from the home loft the
higher the percentage of pigeons there are who
become bewildered and contests are decided on
both speed and homing instinct. By increasing
the distance week by week, the birds trained.
Mr.. Spath said that 200 and 300 mile flights,
only average of IS to 80 per cent of the pig
find their way back to the home loft. Some
are shot, fly into telephone telegraph wires or
just naturally have not the true homing instinct
and stop for visit along the way

fense program, into Newark,
stressing that the city is ideally
situated.
Councilman Neighbor asked
that the stop signs at Hollander
and Channel, be changed in the
interest of safety, and that the
signs be moved from Channel
to Hollander. 1t was his conten-
tion that this would eliminate a
hazard which has caused many
accidents. 1t was voted by the

Slow Tax Receipts
(Continued from Page One)

Still worried about the water
rate being paid by the school
system, the board passed mo-
tion that an attempt be made
to have a joint meeting of mem
bers of the City council, and the
Board of control for the pur-
pose of seeing what might be
done to lower the rate. 1t was
pointed out that the water bill
last year was approximately
$4,000. A survey of rates to
schools in other cities indicates
that Newark rates are far too

there was still one more letter to
be written. She dipped the pen
into the Clipped inkwell and care

1t from new angle.
Il am inviting all the children

Ma scratched out the last sentence.

brief and to the point" she nodded
Lydia hated wasted words, wasted
affection, wasted anything Ma
sighed for such streamlined eff
cheney, then turned to her second
letter.
Dear Doctor Shannon"
Dear DR.. Shannon"-that should
please Kenneth, she thought to her
self, a trifle maliciously. Kenneth
was something of a stuffed shirt
about titles. Odd that she and
gentle Christopher Shannon should
have produced two such austere and
correct children as Lydia and Ken
meth.
Il think you've been working too
hard Your letters sound cross and
grumpy. I prescribe good, old
fashioned Christmas with all the
trimmings. Mountain Creek still
brags about you. Why not give us
a treat? Besides, there'll be roast
turkey with chestnut dressing"
Ma smiled to herself. That was
sheer bribery.
Il am writing all the other chill
dren and it will be just like the old
days again. Don't say you're too
busy. Even doctors have to stop
now and then. Love to Phyllis and
kiss the baby for me. Mother"
Ma sighed. Surely there was
nothing in the crisp, scribbled note
that would betray her sudden spasm
of fear and terror. Suppose-sup-
pose they came too late?
Kenneth was the successful Shan
non. He had inherited his fathers
deft fingers and observant eyes. 1t
was as natural that he would turn
to medicine as rivers turn toward
the sea. Ma remembered how thin
his lips had grown, how his voice
had clipped his words with chill
steel.
I'm not throwing myself away on
dump like Mountain Greek the
way dad did" he announced.

nor calls at midnight to deliver
children to people who haven't paid

lected a quarter of his fees we could
all retire and live on the income"
That had been true enough, ma
was forced to admit. Christopher
had been all doctor. There was no
muddying strain of commercialism
in his nature. Perhaps if he had
been less philanthropic it might
have been easier to rear and educate
the children after he had gone.
A Society Doctor.
Her mind slid lightly over the
grueling years of work and worry
and financial stress. It had been

effort left her worn and old before
her time, with a trembling heart
as irregular in its moods and lenses

as the fluttering of leaves on the
aspen tree outside.
Kenneth had gone to Chicago. His
assured manner and classic profile
had neatly supplemented natural
talent for medicine. And his mar
riage to the socially prominent
daughter of the head of Chicago's
Central Clinic had not hampered his
progress.
Already the name of DR.. Kenneth

Pretty, petted, spoiled Sally, with
her candid blue eyes and her riotous
blond curls and her overweening
ambition to be an actress.
"She can't act worth a penny"
was mas inward comment, recalling
a succession of high school plays.
But she's so easy to look at Maybe
that's all Hollywood needs"
She stamped her letters thought
fully. For a short while the irri-
