Higginsville Post: -" Sometimes
cities as we'll as individuals bite off
more than they can chew and Lex
ington has about come to the conclu-
sion that she did that when she voted
for the waterworks." "Saving your
reverence" Lexington has done no such
thing. She is ready: with the money
already collected, to pay a whole years

endeavoring to build without the aid
of a hydraulic engineer, and thereby
fell into several grave mistakes, which
it will take some time and money to
rectify. "Shinny on your own side,"
