WORDS. NOT 5 o 7 There ‘was a special meeting of the Westerly town council Tuesday for the purpose of considering the action .of the town meeting that provided for | a change of grade in Union street, and made an appropriation of §18,000 for doing the work. By the town meeting vote the council was instructed to be- gin the work immediately, bui two weeks passed and nothing was done, ‘hence the special meeting. President Clarke presided, all the members being pregent. and a number of citizens were in attendance. 5 Clerk Whipple read the votes of the town meeting, which were as follows Voted, That the town meeting as- sembled refer the proposed improve- ments on and about Union street to the present town couneil of Westerly with authority to go ahead immediate- 1y with said improvements,” according to the original report of the improve- ment, committee, except the lowering of the town hall property. interested Voted, That $18,000 or as much thereof as may be necessary bhe voted by this town mbeting for said improve- ment. p Voted, That the town council be in- strticted to secure plans for the en- largement and improvement of the town hall, with the cost of such im- provements, and of the land necessary for the same and to report the same at a town meeting to be called by them. President Clarke invited all present %o give their views on the subject, if they so desired. The clerk read the report of the improvement committee as submitted to the town meeting. which showed the plan of work and estimated cost. Courncilman Burdick suggested that before \definite action be taken defi- nite estimates of the cost be secured. President Clarke stated that it would be proper to know just where we are at before the work is commenced. Councilman Wayland Saunders stated that the whole matter was thor- oughly understood by the townspeople and a rough, but high, estimate had called. improvement committee. He made motion that a committee of three be appointed by the council to go ahead with the work as authorized by the vote of town meeting. This was seconded by Council n Flynn. President Clarke said it was his de- sire that the council set the matter in motion as speedily as possible, and to do the business carefully and do it right and that the first need specifications for bidders before any actual work could commence. Councilman Langworthy was of opinon that it would be better to ap- point a commission that could act un- der the betterment act rather than a committee to carry out the vote of the town meeting, and that whatever land was necessary be condemned be- fore anything else was done Town Solicitor Agard said that the appointmeht of a committee to ascer- tain the cost of the work was fully in compliance with law, and believed a commission wth more power would be more advantageous to the town. Councilman Flynn could not under- stand why the work should not go for- ward by committee in _I1'nion street, as it did on the Watch Hill road, where no commission was appointed. He be- lieved it was the duty of the council to carry out the vote of the town meeting. and with delgy, as the people directed. Councilman Burdick ing carefully and sur for consideration Councilman Flynn s right to move with care. not favor slowness if that route intended to kill the nweasure voted by the pegple just to satisfy the few that were bpposed to the improvement. Councilman Cuiley declared that vote of the town should receive the co-operation of the town cour and ithout delay. Councilman Burdick said the council had better go slow. for if over $18,000 was spent. the would be responsible. stated that the coun- did not go very slow, sure or care- on the Watch Hill road improve- t. and did not istent efforts of some in the Union street matter, unless it was clear case of stave-off in the hope of undo- ing the action of the town mweeting.

Z Dr. Scanlon said as there was to be no trouble with property owners over the taking of land, as none was to be taken and that there was to be only | the regrading of a street, hie believed | the committee plan preferable and cer- tainly more prompt of actien. James A. Welch declared that he, too, would like to see this work done right, and if it is done right, it will be the first time the council did such things right. Councilman Langworthy favored the appointment of a commis- sion and then, perhaps, the work could be done right. He asked Mr. Welch if the plan included the widen- ing of Union street. William Segar said it was not the sense of the taxpayers that Union street should be converted into a bou- levard, but that there should be a change in the grade of the street. This widening business was news to him. M Welch gaid there had been no talk of widening the street except as uttered by Councilman Langworthy, | and it looked to him as a bluff for de- laying action, amuel H. pointment of a committee, commission was needed later, could be readily appointed. Davis favored the ap- and if a they Town Solicitor Agard said that no commission could be appointed at the present meeting. nor could be appoint- ed until the owners of property af- fected were given notice that a com mission was to be appointed. He said if no private property was involved in the change of grade in Union street there was no real necessity of appoint- ing a commission at present. The following motion presented by Councilman- Saunders and seconded by Counecilman Flynn, was unanimously adopted: Voted, b That there be a committee appointed to. procure plans, ‘ations and bids for the pro- posed improvements and lowering of grade on Union eet (which were re- fe-red to this town council by a finan- 1l town meeting held June 14, 1910), d if said improvements can be made within $18,000 s4id /committee to pro- { ceed with said ork immediately Upon motion of Councilman Saun- ders, the following men who served on the improvement committee and who are not members of the council, were committee: Albert N.

This matter of choosing one’s lif2 work is one of the severest tasks a person has to meet. Mang men do not find their spheres of greatest usaful- ness until middle age, while others never nnd tnem. Education ought to help one to find his true sphere. The great difficulty with so many young people is they show an adaptab! y-to too many thin they become what fellows or instructors call ver- e. The versatile man sometimes is the worst handicapped man. He can do # dozen things fairly well and he spends his time between them, scattering his firs instead qr concen- trating on one object, & single pur- pose, and learning to do that in the ag- gregate better than he could do each of the eleven. The man who, with a bent for music, can plas half a dozen instruments, is not nearly so likely to play as well as the man who becomes expert in the u of that on2. The versatile man is seldom more than an amateur, being kept out of the pro- fessional class simply because he has never learned to concentrate his full powers on one thing. Young men and women must look out for these pitfalls. The only talent that ever acomplishes anything worth while is that ined along ‘a certain, definite, fixed Omaha Bee. ———————eee .
