operations BY this boat the work Of
spending the money to the best ad

Just how long the snag boat viii
be kept at work depends entirely on
the number OF snaes encountered be-
tween the two cities named Some
snags are easily removed from the
but others are found deeply im3ed-
ded and many hours are taken in
their removal. Last spring the Oco-
nee paid Macon several visits and at
the close of the summer the river
was practically free from obstruct-

the stream from them.
Several days ago the Oconee tied
up at the Macon wharf near Central

AS soon as he mas finished the river
will be made deeper in some places
by dredging. Later in the spring

A BAD SYSTEM
IN Future the City Clerk VIII not

There will be no more censoring
