Sterling pounds, shillings and pence, may be recorded on one page, while financial notes on the next may be in dollars - and cents. This was probably the interim period . before final adoption of our present form of currency. Those were the days when lumber "was purchased by tender for the construction of plank sidewalks. We "pote one such purchase in 1862, 80,000 feet of 1%" pine plank and 4" cedar scantlings, to be supplied | 4 at $6 per thousand feet. Assur ance was also given that this would be first-class stock, delivered where required. Henry Pedlar, one of thé forebears of the founders of the present Pedlar Metal Products Com- pany, was at that time appointed street surveyor for the year at a salary of £7.10.0 Those were the days too, when aftér considerable discussion at a meeting in 1853, Mr. Roblrt War- ven was Authorized to proceed to Rochester - and there purchase a manual fire engine (to which refer- ence was made in a previous chap- ' fer), and that moreover, "Messrs, Hoitt, Lockhart and Wall will be a committee \to raise £100 for said purchase." It is quite clear that they had adopted a "pay-as-you-go" policy. No bad thing in any age. The Interested Citizen Deliberations" were not left en- tirely to members of the council and their working committees. The pri- vate citizen felt that he too had a voice. His was a voice willing to express facts garnered over store counters, or at rail fences, or after chats in church drive sheds, lodge halls or taverns. Opinions thus en- gendered often took practical form. Although clothed with authority, the council was after all, a small body, little more than an executive committee, It was quite natural therefore, that when any mar of serious import was under oconsidera- fb Bayview Presents CONCHITA TRIANA Talented SPANISH DANCER Sat., April 17 1| tion, arrangements were made for a sent and exceedingly articulate '| when the subject was thrown open '| 1s the case in later years.

Undoubtedly it was because there were fewer distractions, as a con- sequence of no speedier method of disseminating news than by tele-q graph, that folks took local public matters to heart more closely than it is too, that for generations poli- tics ranked next to religious views, when classifying an individual. Those were the simple days, béfore "isms" became of world-wide conse- quence, or initially identified ideo- logies were invented, or received mueh publicity.
