more last week the relief officer j s doughtery ordered a halfton of coal for a relief recipient to reach the house about 10 rods of snow- near the home had to be removed in order that the truck could get along the road not opened at the time the village was obliged to en gage a man to open the street while the relief recipient sat in his home never offering to give assistance in anticaption of the free coal this combination of laziness and ingrati tude makes it hard for the deserv ing ones but it is safe to say that no more coal will reach this chap over a snowbank which the village must engage
