company is touring, is noted for his
orders to have the production used in

City is not Done Better

City Clerk Jacob is busy today send
ing out warnings TO the drain layers
of the city. For the pastsfew months
the drain layers have been doing work
in the city in very improper manner

fore the council and asked that the
drain layers either do perfect work or
have their licenses revoked. In many
parts Of the city faulty drains have
been put in and the work is growing
worse every day.
Many drain layers have been licensed
by the city but it is claimed that a
number of them are not fit to hold the
license and these licensesiwill prob.
ably be revoked.
