ALLEN TO PREPARE A PLAT
BOOK OF ALBA SURVEYS.

Albia-The Abba city council held
meeting last night and made ar
rangements with c. R. Allen Of OF

vcys that have been made in the city
and get the book into such shape that
1t can be filed with the county record
er and made matter of record. Abba,
like many other county seat towns,
has not paid much attention to the
matter of surveying and as conse-
quence there are some streets and al
leys that 1t would hustle human be-
ing to find way through. The idea
now is to get the surveys as near reg
ular as possible and have them re-
corded that any future person who
starts to do work Of the kind will have
a place to begin and know they will
find an ending that will tally up with
what it should.
