Ti-lE GREATER SOUTH NORWALK.
Two plans for annexation both enl-
bodying the commission form of gov-
ernment, were passed upon at the ads
Joni-nod meeting of the South Norwslk
City Council, last evening. steps were
taken toward getting the sanction of
the legislature to have the people of
the town vote on them; a resolution
was passed to get the power from the
legislature to bond the city to the ex-
tent of $75,000 for public buildings
and sites; a general building line catn-
palga was set in motion. and other
business was transacted, the session
lasting until the cloclt‘s hands bagged
'the midnight hour.
One of the annexation plans calls
for the extension of the city lines to
include the whole town. and the other
the entire town with the excepyou
of the City of Norwalk and the upper
end of the present First district. The
._.--
idea of the council's special committee.
which reported last night. is to press
the second plan in the event of the
first one not meeting with favor.
Among the lesser items of import
snco was the making of the new pav-
ing bonds non-taxable. thus giving the
local public an opportunity to buy
without having the attractiveness of
them detracted from by a tax, which
would reduce them from a four to a
two per cent. investment.
in view of the large amount of im-
portant business acted upon last night,
this meeting of the council was pracA
tically epoch-making, marking the
culmination of projects that. have been
under consideration for a long time.
The, taking in hand of various public
improvements was at least a rebuke to
the sentiment of a few that the city
is not alive to its opportunity fer civic
advancement; that it is not keeping
pace with the times and steadily grow-
lag.

Calvin Smith, our East Norwalk
past. has a production in this issue
entitled "Uhcle John" that will be up-
precintod. by The sentinel readers.
Mr. Smith includes in this rhyme our
long-time drswhridge tender, the pow-
erful tug Addie V.. sometimes called
"The Addie ll‘ive Times." the draw it-
self, the river and the river bottom.
Each of these subjects is very much
in the public mind Just now, and they
have been most appropriately and tel-
lingly grouped ill rhyme by our Versu'
tile contributor from the East side.
The only point not made perfectly
clear by the. author is what “Uncle
John" said that "the Lord only
snows."

lditor of Sentinel:
The people of the City of Norwalk
don't all live on one streei. Strange
to say, they don't all have the sanity
mind about the some things. Frances
a. Willard says: “No success ill life,
is anything but an absolute failure.
unless its purpose is to increase the
sum at human good and happiness."
Has anyone discovered what the pur-
pose is. and whether it would be good
in its results, if consolidation could
be secured. Why don't the enthusias-
tic exponents give the. public some
facts and figures that would present a
showing on paper. if not in reality?

different sections of our town have
become nicely settled down. and each
suing along their own respective work

Norwslk and South Norwalk each
have their own public utilities. Nor-
walk is steadily developing to the
northward. South Norwalk ,ls con-
stantly expanding to the southward.
blast Norwalk is rapidly becoming an
independent community, and flown-
ion is following at a good pace. Each
section has its own schools, fire do-
ouvtments and other public services
which it, maintains from its own local
resources. TlWH" sov‘eval communities

This is a day when trusts are. ill a
discount. Someone is sol-kins to con-
lrol even the little local administrative
lulhority that each of these districts
now enjoys, and which is peculiarly
its own. and there is no one that can
look after them a bit more judiciously.
Each will continue to grow and meet
their own requirements iar better

special conservator over them.
