One- half of the .cost of paving any street, excluding from such cost o much thereof as any street rafiway company may be obliged # pay by law or con- tract, shall be assessed against the owners of the property abutting on the line of such improvement in proportion to frontage. After such improvement shall have been completed the street committee of said court of common council shall ap- point a time and placa when and where all parties in interest may appear be- fore it and be heard relative to such assessment, and shall cause notice of such hearing, specifying the time and place thereof, signed by a majority of said committes, to be published not less than twice in each dafly news- paper published in said city, at least ten days before the date of such hear- ing, which publication shall be legal and sufficient notice to all parties in interest of all matters relating to such assessment. Such committee shall meet at such time and place and hear all parties in interest who may appear to be heard in the matter, and shall thereupon assess against each owner of property abuttinmg on the iine of such improvement his proportion of the cost thereof. - When said committee shall have completed its assessment as aforesaid it shall make a report thereof in writ- ing and file the same with the clerk of said city, and a copy thereof with the tax collector of said city.

This act shall take effect when _ap- proved, by a majority vote, at a mieet- ing of said city, duly warned and held for that purpose. Organizing Farm Loan Associations. Prof. Guy C.

Saturday afternoon saw the cuimi- nation of the Museum Extension work carried on by the Art Students Asso- clation through a committee of the a soclation. This committee is composed of a group of volunteer members with Mrs. Oszias Dodge as chairman. Twice a week small groups of children from the sixth grades ave conducted through the Slater Museum to study and ob- serve examples of Greek art, and since this is an extension of their school work it proves of great Interest to them and stimulates their apprecia- tion of the beautiful. For the past three vears the work has ended with an aftérnoon of story- telling. Each year has shown an in- creased interest and last Saturday Slater Hall was filled with an enthu- siastic audience of children. Mrs. Cronan, who was the speaker on this, as on previous occasions, is the offi- cial story-teller of the Boston Museum and the Beston Public Library and is considered at the head of her profes- sion in the United States. | ~She told as her first story, an adap- tation of Charles Kingsley’s Water Babies, a wistful, charming talk of the grimy little London chimney sweep with his misadventures and final transformation into a happier, purer state. The second story was of A Flag Raising and the third The Story of Trimbelma by Hans Anslerson, who excells in delicate imagination and whimsicality. Another fairy tale was added as an encore and the children went home happy. Mrs. Cronan brought with her most beautiful slides, many of them exquisitely hand-col- ored, with which her stories were most profusely {llustrated. _ Pictures by Kenyon Cox, Jessie Wilcox Smith, Howard Pvle and many others werc among them. The object of telling these stories to the children is to interest ‘them in the storles and authors and so induce them to read them for themselves ana in this wap cultivate a taste for the best in literature.

He moved indefinite post- ponement, but the motion did not pfe- vail. Mr. Backus of Thompsen, who declared he was consistent and out- spoken in advocacy of temperance leg- islation, sald he was opposed to the bill in its present form as it was not fair to the Tiquor dealers. He said these men paid high price for protection or their busipess as required by the state and ought to be reimbursed in pro- portion to what they had paid, if their time for doing business was to be less- ened. If the saloons were to be ciosed, wholly qr_in part, the bill ought to provide for equivalent retm- bureement for money’ paid for liquor license at least. ©On motion of the majority leader the Rugs For Every Room For Living Room An Axminster _will able—we show them designs and colorings.
