Thai tins fact has been recognised as
ant In Norrlstown and other nd-iarriii
towns, to the extent of a sub-stantial
advance In the salaries ol the
I'oliee force iherein employed:
Thai the expenses of living have
been steadily Increasing for more than
two years past. and this factor we be-lieve
has entered largely Into the wil-lingness
of employers to granl such
advances to operatives or employes as

Into consideration and gram them
