Many cripples were taken to Philadelphia for examination And treatment and this phase of the work is growing to such an extent that the society may have to consider the advisability of making a appeal for a Sunshine automobile to take these afflicted ones back and forth to the station and to be used continuously for Sunshine work.

New braces were purchased for several children and the children at the Manada Gap home were given a watermelon party. The Sunshine Society decided to pay for the milk furnished in the city schools for defif ient children for one month and made its usual contribution to the Associated Aid Societies.

CONTRACT TO BE LET BKOUNCIL New Rules Provide For More Frequent Collections in Winter Directing the bureau of ash and garbage inspection to prepare specifications at once, to be approved by Council, and then advertise for bids for the removal of rubbish and refuse from the' 'city during 1919, city commissioners took action I to day looking toward another contract for waste removal for next year.

Among these are rulings that the contracting firm must have complaint forms to be used in notifying the inspection bureau if occupants, fail to have ashes and refuse ready for removal; receptacles to be provided by householders must not contain more than one and one half bushels, no dumping of ashes in alleys, on streets or in any public place or private property, penalty of not more than flOO fine or 30 days in jail for violations.
