III the city of Enterprise will be taken,
the city council at its session Wednes-

canvass the town for that purpose.

little boy killing snakes in doing the
work laid out for him by council. In
addition to umbering the people, he is
to build tool box under the band
stand in which to keep the city IS shovels,
picks, ETC., and worse than that he is to
hunt up the borrowers of the aforesaid
shovels, picks, etc., secure the tools and
never lend them to anyone anymore.
lie is also to put in q culvert on For
sythe street between Main and West
North streets, locate all needed repairs
IN sidewalks and notify property owH-
ers to repair same, have lumber hauled
at once for needed crosswalks, 90 around
with Councilmen Atkins and Graves
and see where street lights are needed.
These few things he is to do in addition
to looking after the peace and good
order of the town. The last amed job
is sinecure, and he can devote all his
time to the 8 ide issues.
The telephone and street vacation or
dinances were postponed until the next
regular meeting. The council is not
disposed to vacate to exceed 80 feet of
East Greenwood street where it passes
the high school. 1t is now the only
open street leading on to the hill in a
distance OF five or six blocks.
