Plank By denouncing Republicans, Democrats and the City Manager League all in one breath, Dr. Franklin W. BOCK, Independent candidate for Mayor two years ago, has again announced candidacy on a City Manager platform.

Dr. BOCK declares that "too many of the men who decide the destinies and formulate the policies of the City Manager League are still partisan in spirit." Dr. BOCK intimated that if the people wanted him to run again on a non-partisan ticket as he did two years ago he would consent to be their candidate. **** City Playgrounds Closed While Instructors Picnic All city playgrounds and swimming pools were closed today, while the instructors hold their annual picnic at Newport.

There are all indications that many of these crafts have been plying the Chinese waters for many centuries, the boats being handed down from father to son and there is no way of approximating their exact age. Most of them have something in the way of elaborate embellishment but they are poorly cared for except so far as the necessary mending and patching are concerned. Many of these boats have acted as the homes for the families of several succeeding generations. The "floating population' of Hong Kong is enormous and thousands of these persons have known no other home. A Junk will not "heave to" as the boats in the western world do and when the occasion demand it John CHINAMAN lets the halyards go and the sails come down with a run. The high poop acts as a riding mizzen and brings the craft head to wind and the low boat prevents him from falling off the wind so that in a blow the boat practically takes care of itself. If the blow lasts too long he throws out a sea anchor. His next procedure is to burn a jos stick and probably a few pieces of paper as a prayer to his household god. **** Reunion Near Dansville Cohocton, July 20 - The second annual reunion of the COBIN and WISE families and the third annual reunion of the KIEFER family, were held Saturday at the Story Brook Glen near South Dansville. **** MRS.
