Mr. Marsh's Residents of the Rockaways. which comprises the Fifth Ward of Queens Borough, are angry at the borouajh officials for the discontinuance of seventy-one gas lights and nine arc lamps in that territory. When residonts left their homes on Monday evening there were a number of street liehts which were not burning and believing that the Ice coating on the wires had put the electric lights out of commission and that there may have been some trouble with the gas lamp lighters, they passed the matter by. Yesterday they learned that tha Queens Borough Gas and Electric Company of Far Rockaway, which supplies the lights in the Rockaways.

had received Q-dors from the Department of Water, Gas and Electricity to cut off the lights until further notice. As street lights are few and far between there is much dissatisfaction over the latest move the borough officials have York and Hudson Terminal Company: i the boys will read a paper upon the work. Mr. Marvip. the director and Miss Peters, chairman of the Waring Juvenile League's committee, will give detailed accounts of this phase of civic effort.
