The town pays for Its lighting of the streets, $6500. If this current was bought from an outside company it would cost at least $20,000, Mr Foley assorted. The town taxes the Electric Light Department for $8500, so the town has certainly made money on tills and saved the householder about 174 percent on electric light bills.

Mr Foley concluded by saying that he thought this building would be a splendid memorial to the soldiers of Norwood and would be an individual and Ideal Municipal Building, and sincerely hoped the citizens would regard it as such. town meeting, when the citizens unanimously voted to appropriate $265,000 for a Memorial Municipal Building.

It was. however, always nosed out In favor of other matters, such as schools, the sewerage system, etc.

The special tow'n meeting Monday was presided over by Judge James A. Halloran. Francis J. Foley, chairman of the Municipal Memorial Building, read the report of the committee and explained clearly and concisely Just why the type of building was chosen, how the figures had been, arrived at and nvhy Norwood could afford this building much better than surrounding towns could.
