That Adams will soon have an up-to-
date water system is now fully assured,
says the Advance. The charter was
amended by the legislature to permit the
bonding of the town in a sum not to
exceed $4,000, which, together with the
income from other sources would give a
capital Of about $4,000 to work on and
keep in the limit Of the script issue.
The committee appointed to ascertain
the cost Of material have been busy the
last few days and are getting along with
the report to such point that they feel
assured that this amount Of money will
more than do the Job. While we would
like at the present time to give the fig

the committee desires when the estimates
are given that they shall be complete.
