They were compelling all stores to keep closed on Sunday, a more strict enforce- ment of the curfew law in keeping the habitual street walkers off the streets and the enforcement of the law against the sale of cigarettes to minors. They asked that a plain clothes policeman be employed for the above purpose and even offered to bear part of the expense of his salary. The matter was referred to the Fire and Police committee for investiga- tion and report. Complaint was made about the barrels of refuse and dirt allowed to stand on the street over Sunday and the street commissioner was instructed to notify merchants that same must be removed every Saturday night. In the bills presented to council was one for $650 from Frank E. Naginey, who claimed that amount as damages by having the wind shield on his automobile broken by driving into an open gutter on Linn street. No action was taken on the bill and it was not ordered paid. Bills to the amount of $447.44 were approved after which council adjourned.

Last week we recorded an incident of the careless firing of a gun or revolver and on Monday of this week Russell Smith, son of Witmer Smith, of this place, who is spending his vacation with his grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. Isaac Smith, at Centre Hall, was shot through the left hand by the supposedly acciden- tal discharge of a revolver in the hands of a boy whose identity is unknown.

The committee on closing was dis- continued as their efforts in the past to induce business men to close up on picnic day had not been very successful. The Finance committee reported that six hun- dred dollars would be available to bear the expenses of the picnic and furnish amusement for the crowd. A vote of thanks was extended to Frank Warfield, of the Central Railroad of Pennsylvania, and to landlord H. S. Ray for courtesies extended.

At a meeting of the school board on Monday evening Joseph R. Shultz, of Sunbury, was elected as an assistant in the High school and will teach science and have charge of the athletics. He comes to Bellefonte well recommended. He is a graduate of Bucknell and since has been assistant principal in the Jean- ette High school. At Monday night's session the school board also awarded the contract for the concrete pavement and walks at the new High school building to the Haupt broth- ers, they being the lowest bidders. The work will be done by the foot and in the aggregate will amount to from $700 to $750. ‘ When school opens the new building will be ready for occupancy. The con- tractors will practically finish all the car- penter work on the building in the next ten days or two weeks. About all that remains to be done is the hanging of a few inside doors and putting up the doors at the various entrances. During the past week four or five new cabinets were received and installed in the big labora- tory on the third floor where the stu- dents of the High school will be drilled in laboratory work. This is an equip- ment heretofore badly needed and will add greatly to the practical work in the school. Electric clocks have been install- ed in every school room in the building and all are connected with a master's clock in the principal's room. Every room is also connected with the princi- pal’s room with a call bell so that he can be reached without being sent after. There is still some painting to do and of course considerable cleaning up around the building and then it will be ready for the installation of the seats and desks. The heating and ventilating system has not yet been connected up but that will only be a matter of a few days work. Of course there is considerable filling and grading to do around the building but it can be done anytime during the summer and fall. - eo.
