The meeting of City Council was
an interesting session Tuesday night.
and for little more than an hour
there werevarious things presented, in
cluding batch of applications for
liquor licenses.
The proposed paving ordinance was
very discreetly kept under cover, and
1t is not likely that it will appear at
an early date, judging from the ex-
presslons made by majority of the

prise at present, as the condition of
finances will warrant.
