mended frequent vUlts to the schools;

ous committees bo abridged and their
duties more clearly defined. Ho advo
cated economy in the awarding of con
tracts and the making of repairs and
wanted more responsibility placed on
the board than there Is under the
present system. He urged the members
to overcome petty Jealousies and work
for the best Interests of the schools.

head In his remarks and it they be

mented on having as a member such nn
able nnd efficient young man as Is tho

First to the number of unemployed

effort to bring industries here, also
recommended the doing of more per
manent work cm the roads and asked
tho council for their assistance In
holding the Traction company to tho
terms of Its ordinance.. The members
assured him that they would co-operate
with him as far as they can. Tho
matter of road work dime In for a
great deal of consideration and it was
finally decided to Btop work on July

by Mr. Dean for that purpose. An or
dinance was also Introduced providing
fbr the mursdlng ot dogs during tho

resolution caused a general discussion
on tho closing of saloons on Sunday

tention to strictly enforce the law.
Tho burgess was directed to use all
his power in the matter and he was
promised the support ot tho council.
Burgess Langan assured the council
that he would do his duty and ho
generally means what he. Bays. Con
tractor Splltone naked for a settle
ment of his account with the borough
for the building of tho foot bridge but
was not satisfied with the amount of
fered, so his difficulty Is still open, Tho
council then adjourned until somo
evening next week, to bo announced
Inter.
It is pleasing to note an improvement
in the council's method of doing busi
ness, as Illustrated In Monday's meet
ing. Heretofore about two-thirds of
tlile time of the council was consumed
In useless talk, but the last meeting
was a notable exception to the rule.
Business was done with neatness and
despatch. The discussions were right
to the point. There were no exhibi
tions of personal enmity and every
thing was done in ta business-like man
ner. The burgess Is taking a commend
able Interest In th'e work of the council
and his advice and experiences has
been of considerable value to them.
Burgess Langan evidently realizes
what is expected of him and it is
hopeful to note that the high anticipa
tions of the people who elected him
are belnir realized. Everyone Interest
ed in the welfare of the borough will
hope that tho good work of tho bur
gess and tho council will long con
