Good Work.

The civic league is busy with their
good work. The court house yard is
to be made into flower bed. There is
also move On to enlarge the park
making more room for the summer
evangelistic services and helping in
many different ways. DR.. Pierce is
having drawing made showing the
plans of the new park and as soon as
it is flushed the Record will print a
picture of the new park way. 1t is to
be hoped that the enterprising ladies
of the town will not stop in their good
work and that before this summer
passes We shall have our new parkway
and new cement walks around the
square together with many other much
needed improvements. Let every lady
who is interested in her town Join in
an effort to make Lancaster the most
beautiful town in Central Kentucky.

McCreary.

Senator McCreary wants to be Gov
ernOr again according t. Lexington
dispatch.
The statement has been made that
the ex-senator will return to his home
in Richmond, Kentucky, from New
York about April Goth and will short
ly after that date announce his can
didacy for the democratic nomination
for Governor.
A conference of prominent demo
Gratis of the state was held recently
and it was decided by them that Nc
Creary was the strongest and most
available man for the nomination.
The demand by the democrats of the
state that McCreary be the nominee
of the party for Governor seems to be
so general and widespread that the
prObabi i,y of his receiving the honor
is almost assured.

Council Meeting.

The city council will meet on next
Monday night to act on the telephone
franchise. also many other important
matters: Mr.. Mount has introduced
an ordinance which if passed will mean
that in the near future we will have
cement walks around the public
square.
At the last meeting Mr. Mount was
appointed a committee to form a plan
to help get the Government building
and he is now preparing pamphlet in
which will be shown a picture of our
Banks, School, Hotel, Tobacco Ware
houses, the present post office etc.
If the council appoints committee
to 90 to Washington in the interest of
the Government Building to see Sena-
tor Bradley, Congressman Helm, Stan
lev and others. this book will be turn
ed over to the committee to be taken
to Washington, otherwise it will be
mailed to our friends at Washing ton.
There is no reason why we should
not have government building and
why should We? 1t is because the net
proceeds of the Lancaster post office
are increasing. Nine years ago the
business amounted to 81, 400, last year
it amounted to something over 1900.
At the same ratio, the increase in nine
more years will make this a Second
Glass post Office. In the next few
years there will uEquestienably be a
large increase in business, as houses
are being erected on every available
lot to accommodate the many families
who are coming here to get the benefit
of our splendid school. Our large to-
baccO Warehouses, New Mill, Cream
cry and other new places of business
together with general increase in busi-
ness and in population, require better
facilities for handling the mail.
Let every public spirited man In the
town attend the council meeting next
Monday night and all join in an effort
to promote the things that will make
our town what it should be and op-
pose those things which will not re-
d0und ultimately to the best interest
Of all.
