The bills presented for expenses dur- ing July were approved and ordered paid. When the bill for street lights was being considered Clerk Whipple remarked that one of the greateSt wastes of money in Westerly town affairs was that paid for arc lights and that the town was not getting the power that was being paid for. Councilman Culley = declared cluster lights were preferable to arc lights and that the committee favored substitution. He said he received con- siderable complaint in regard to the arc lights. He said he had taken . he | matter up with officers of the company and was told that sometimes the s vice was affected by new carbons, but only for a brie Chief of Pol ed the information the arc lights was les globes and that a new pected daily Councilman Culley said the contra-t with the company would be examined hefore the next meeting and that then perhaps he would ask for definite ac- tion. that eld volunteer- the value of ened by broksn supply is ex- that The first account of James W.
