LONDON MAY TAKE MONTHS.
LEARNING TO BE A CITY
Powers Different
In Municipality

London may take many months
learning to be city.
The 1850 census took London
out of the village classification
and made il one of Ohios % new
cities because its population clin-
bed from the 1910 census mark
of 4,697 to a 1850 total of 5,222.
Once a village exceeds the 5000
mark it is no longer a village.
When official figures of the
London population were received
by the Secretary Of State and
certified to the Mayor, London
was due to officially become a
city 30 days after receipt of the
certification.
Meanwhile a primary election
was conducted to nominate the
necessary new officials required
for a municipal form of govern
ment.
Some of the changes to be
brought about by the switch from
village to city may be foreseen in
a comparison of the powers of
village and city officials.
Elected officials of a city as
most everyone knows, are the
mayor, president of council, audi
tor, treasurer, solicitor and q
council of seven members, four
of whom are elected by wards.
Others are councilmen-at-large.
AppointiVe officials cf city are:
director of public service, direc4
tor of public safety, board of
health, civil service commission,
and various other sub-department
officials not provided for villages.
The mayor of a village is presi-
dent Of council and may vote in
case of tie. The mayor .of 3
city has no such authority. but
does have the power of veto
which the mayor OF a village does
not have, according to law.
The auditor Of city is the
fiscal officer. In a village the
clerk is the fiscal officer and also
the clerk of council.
In a village the marshal, under
the mayor, is. the executive head
Of the police force while in a city
the director of public safety, APP
pointed by the mayor, is the exc
cutive head with the chief of po-
lice directly in charge of the de-
partment.
In village the street commits
sioner is required to supervise the
public works while in a city these
functions devoive upon the direc-
tor of public service.
The legal counsel in a village
is merely an employe of the will
age without any Independent au-
thority. The solicitor in city has
specific independent authority
Each village is a component
part of the county health district
while each city comprises an in-
dependent city health district. The
villages as such exercise no
health functions.
In cities, the powers of council
are legislative only and contracts.
particularly in the fire and police
departments, are awarded and ex-
ecuted by the directors of the re-
spective departments except that
contracts involving $500 or more
must have the approval of the
Board of Control fthe mayor and
two directorsl. Expenditures In
excess of 1000 must first be au-
thorized and directed by ordi-
nance of council
In villages contracts are author
lied and awarded by council with
purely formal execution by the
mayor and clerk.
The board of public affairs in
villages has the same powers as
the director of public service in
cities in reference to utility ex-
nenditures.

Boarding Parent Plan

your readers to know that the
baby's parent pays the agency for
most of the clothing. medical and
boarding expenses.
The boarding parents care fol-
the baby day and night, Saturdays
and Sundays included. They must
permit the infants own parent to
visit If he or she desires this pri-
vilege, but such visits are limited
to maximum of one hour a week
and are scheduled by the agency
with proper consideration of the
natural and boarding parents. An
agency social worker assists the
boarding mother in meeting all
difficulties and shares the respon-
sibility for the infant. The baby's
development is closely followed at
a neighborhood Well-Baby Clinic
but in case of illness the foster
parents are free to call in their
own doctor at agency expense.
Although the $55 per month
rate cannot possibly pay for the
splendid service which our board
ing parents render the community
and give to the baby. they all tell
us that the joy which the baby
brings into the household more
than makes up for the lack of
material gain.
If any of your readers would like
further information about partici-
patton in this community pro-
gram, we would be glad to have
them telephone the Children's
Protective Association at Dupont

months, at which time they
go into their permanent homes.
Naturally it is often hard for
foster parents to give up an infant
after having had it under their
loving care for the first few
months of its life. The pain of
separation is partially offset by
taking another newborn baby in
to the home to give another child

greatly in consistency. Some are
oily and some are dry. If your
lipstick cakes on your lips or is so
oily that it overruns the line of
your mouth or settles into the
little creases, it is not for you.
Many women write me about this
problem, and seem to think that
all brands are the same. There
is great difference.
