Six members were present at the regular
meeting of borough council on Monday
evening, but what was expected to be a
very interesting session turned out to be
a very tame affair. The borough engi-
neer and contractor R. B. Taylor had
been requested at the special meeting a
week ago to have ready for council on
Monday evening a full statement of the
state road expenditures but Mr. Taylor
was unable to be present and the bor- ——The loss on the Bellefonte Metho-
