The a‘lminist1'-ation claims that its heads are tied by the fact that the breakdowns and inefficacy of the present plant has forced the present unsa-nit~ ary method now in use.

The necessity of such pro-N ceedure will be strictly up to the taxpayers to decide upon at: the meeting on July 31.

All taxpayers with property on Electric Avenue areurged’ to attend the meeting on July 31 in order that the City Dads can get opinions for, or against, the paving of tlie Avenue.

A .¢~:.qIui:cno’u\ * ON BUDGEQT HUNGARIANS TO PICNIC SUNDAY Judge John R. Pillion sel- dom displays a temper while on the bench, but a case before him this morning, evidéntly was beyond pardon and too much for his noted judicial calmness, had examined several hams on the truck and found them dis- colored, perraps poisonous, and partly discompoaed-'. After imposing a fine of $50 each, the judge informed the defendent that they had not only violated a section of the City Charter framed to protect local merchants, but that they had also probably endangered the lives of citizens by selling food which would cause pain. ful sickness, if not death. of the consumers. “I am sorry that I cannot assess a greated fine,\ he said in conclusion. And also‘,_ warned that the practice of outside peddlcrs coming to Lackawanna to sell without first procuring _a, license must be discontinued. The defendants claimed that 4'hc_v had just purchased the meat that morning in Buffalo, and did not know that it \‘.'39_ .unfit to sell. A serious error was made last week in ‘the increas_8ed- noted in Sclzoo) Budget article when we noted $2,000 increase for legal services and a little over $4,000 for insurance. The error on legal service was due to a misprint in a print. ed report of last year's budget. Gypsy songs and sprightly f music will enliveh the picnic of Hungarian camb, 324 Woodme of the World, at the corner of Abbott and Ridge Roads, Sunday July 23 accord- ing to general chairman Julius Karsa. ‘ V 1. The proposed bud get shows an increase of over $44, 000 over last ‘year. 2. Only 20 per cent ofvlast year's school taxes have been paid. “With conditions such as they are in Lackawanna, how many years can our schools survive? “Will the State and County be a Santa Claus to us forever? “Our School Board realizes the critical.‘ condition got‘ our schoo.l finances and they want your help and suggestions,\ The prisoners subjected to a scathing denunciation were Joseph Vizzi, 22, reputed own er of a butcher shop at 323 William Street, Buffalo, and his cousin, Joseph Puzzeila, 454 North Division Street, who were charged with selling tainted meat. The insurance increase is a regular 3 year increase to take care of fire insurance for 3 years. ’Dhe picnic will open at 2 o'clock and continue all the af- ternoon and ‘evening, with plenty of good eats, music, dancing and amusements. ENGLISH SPEAKING LODGE TO ’FP.O'L.lC Members of “Lackawanna’s\ English Speaking lodge, 726, C. F. U., and friends will parti-~ cinate in a wiencr roast and swimming party at Angola, ‘Thursday evening, July 27. Mrs. Mary Serbar-h is chairman of the affair.
