A COMMEMORATE WORK.

The ladies of the Mothers School
Improvement Society, in session yes
terday afternoon, decided to proceed
at once with installing the new drink
ing fountains for the public schools
This is work prompted solely by
love for the children of the town aud
by civic pride, and the ladies who are
the prime. movers are to be COM
mended and should be encouraged and
assisted by every patron of the
schools and by all people who feel
any interest in the children OF the
town. The ladies have a neat little
sum, enough to begin the work, but
they will have to call on the citizens
for assistance to finish. At the meet
ing yesterday number of canvassing
committees were appointed, and
these ladies will call on you, not on
7abegging mission, but to give you an
opportunity to help in this good
work. Every one should realize the
importance of having good drinking
arrangements for the children and
should deem it a privilege to help in
so important a matter. The ladies in
form the Herald that Mr. G. E. Dilley
has kindly consented to order the
fountains and donate his profits to
the cause, and we learn that he has
also made nice cash contribution,
which is very liberal. Let other citi-
zens be as liberal and the work Will
soon be accomplished.
