Young wanted to take some OF the SUI
pervisors on an automobile trip to Wal
kiki, to exhibit the uneven places In the
highway.
Adams said he had noticed that but
one man, in some places. was put to
work on a job. no one looking after
him. A bunch Of men should take hold
of job, under luna. and hustle 1t
through. Energy should be concentrat-
ed. Work could not be done properly
all over the city at once.
CURLING Of Streets.

tendent of Public Works about enforce
ing street curbing on improved roads
by property owners. Holloway had
said he could not enforce the law, hav-
Ing no money to spare for curbing.
n he spent money for curbing. on the
cost being secured from the property
owner the money went into the Treas
ury and the Public Works was not re-
lmbursed. Lucas said the County
would have to enforce the law. other.
wise It might as well quit business.
The Board has an ordinance on curb
Ing under consideration. This propos-

Bulletin.
Adams read letter from Sheriff
Brown relative to money advanced BY
the Sheriff for the pay Of informers.
He wished to put In the vouchers Oft
ener than once month, otherwise the
money would have to come out Of his
own pocket. He had already advanced
s163. Adams thought the Sheriff
should not be obliged to advance
money.
Rawlins Gives Advice.
Former Deputy High Sheriff w. T.
Rawlins was present. He called upon
by the Chair on Adams suggestion,
stated that this money for informers
was absolutely necessary. lnformers
were generally men who had nothing
else to do. They needed the money as
soon as they had earned II. They
were only paid when case was won.
Under Henry's regime the High Sheriff
had found 1t necessary at times to ad-
vance money from his private funds,
Bail money had never been drawn on
tor this purpose.
Adams suggested that the Sheriff
should be allowed 500 or $3.50 per
month as fund to be drawn on for
such expenses. Adams also presented
bill for $62.50 for horse shoeing EXAM
,-ations under the new law. Wilson
