kept closed, so as to exclude the flies,
the only openings in the closets to be
small holes in the side walls properly
screened as protection against the
flies. The closets are to be cleaned
once week in the summer and once
every two weeks in the winter under
this system, and the garbage wagons
are to convey and dispose OF same at
some proper place that may not endan-
ger the health or conflict with the own
ers Of property near the place Of deposit.
These are substantially the details Of
the plan, but the object of the plan is
far more reaching in its scope. DIR.
Blanton says that he has been making
study Of the subject, and that he be-
lieves it incumbent upon the citi-
zens Of Union City as matter of pro-
lection from disease to provide better
sanitation. He stated that hookworm
is prevailing in parts Of Tennessee and
everybody knows, as it has now become
a well known fact, that typhoid fever is
spread by the house fly. The other
principal cause is impure water, and the
water here being pronounced practically
pure, typhoid fever in Union City,
whenever it prevails, is attributed to the
fly. He states also that science has de-
veloped that hookworm is conveyed by
soil pollution, and that without the tubs
in the closets the soil OF our city may
become polluted. DIR. Blanton showed
that medical science had proved that
flies were propagated from filth, and
where filth did not exist there are prac-
ticalIy no fiies-the fly was a menace TO
public health, and against the fly there
is a general crusade all over the world
Dir. Blanton argued that since it was
The commercial. (Union City, Tenn.) 190?-193?, 1910-03-04

impractical from financial standpoint
to have sewerage in Union City, some
plan should be devised for perfect sys-
tenn of sanitation, and that the system
he proposed was the result OF careful
study.
The board took the matter up and
considered it with great favor, as
result committee was appointed to re-
wise and draft an ordinance suiting the
demands exactly and report at the next
meeting, SO that the plan may be put
into execution on the first of April.
The committee is DR. Banton, John
Adams and John Semones
The proposition Of assessing the Union
City Ice 4 Coal Co. with privilege for
electric fan plant as city franchise was
put before the board. This franchise
was granted to Mr.. Dahnke for NUM-
Der OF years free Of charge as a result Of
the demand for fans, but the franchise
having expired the question Of an ex-
tension of free franchise is to be con-
sidered. The proposition was referred
to the Water and Light Committee.

j. b. Waddell at this point asked fol-
permission to address the board on a
petition signed by w. S. Long, ]. B.
Waddell, r. P. Whitesell, j. G. Potter,
JAS. Caruthers, Seid Waddell, Joe Har-
pole, H. T. Simmons, G. N. Lannom,
Mr. Clements, Mr.. Stewart, Mrs. Car
ter, S. E. Altman, l.. G. Tate, E. E.
Jones, S. G. Nash, Mrs. Artie Reed.
The petition recited at length the facts
that citizens residing outside and ad-
joining the corporation limits had been
practically cut off from the benefits OF
the public schools in the redistricting OF
the rural schools. Mr., Waddell stated
that the nearest school to him was about
three miles, and that it was altogether
impractical to send his small children
there. The same was said to be
true of other citizens, and these citizens
came before the board to ask admission
to the city public schools on basis Of
equal rights. Mr.. WaddeIl explained
his plan fully, as recited by the petit
ton, and it was that the resident chill
dren just outside the city limits be adj
mitted to the city schools to the extent
that they contributed to the State and
county school tax. They wanted moth
ing more. This, Mr.. Waddell claimed,
would give them about half or less of
the school term free, and the remainder
OF the term they asked for nothing more
than to be charged tuition to the
amount OF the city school tax. Mr..
Waddell explained further that the pub
lie school laws provided that children
residing near a school outside Of their
own district could attend the nearest
school, and that each child pro rata OF
the State and county school tax could
be credited to the school they attended.
This would be true OF the children ask
ing admission to the city schools.
A number Of the members of the
Board Of Education being present, the
Mayor asked 10 hear from them upon
this subject. d. n Walker, president
of the school board, stated that the

Special committees reported. Among
these Mr.. Semones, for the Water and
Light Committee, reported that the
committee recommended the purchase
OF new dynamo, with capacity about
one-fourth greater than the dynamo
now in use. This recommendation was
made from the fact that the one dynamo
in use is yearly loaded, but for another
and probably better reason that the city
needs two dynamos, q substitute for use
in case one OF the machines should
break down. 1t must be remembered
that the single dynamo is running all

board had worked hard to build up ;
good school, and that they could d.
nothing more than act within the pro
visions of the laws governing the city
schools. The city laws provided thai
no children outside of the city limit:
could attend the city schools.
Mr.. Waddell, asking to be heard
again, stated that it was to amend that
law that he appeared before the board
Several other gentlemen spoke On the
subject. Mr.. Tisdale stated that the
petitioners did not take into considera-
ton the school bonds which had to be
provided for by the tax payers of Union
City.
The Mayor thought it would be better
to let the petition lay over for further
consideration, and appointed commit
tee to take the matter in hand, as fol-
lows: ]. G. Burdick, DIR. Blanton, John
Adams. Mr.. Walker, being present,
was asked to appoint a conference COM
mittee from the Board OF Education,
and the committee is r. F. Tisdale, w.
G. Reynolds, J. w. Woosley.
Here Mr.. Mute, superintendent Of the
city schools, appeared with petition,
asking the Board Of Mayor and Alder
men to cooperate with the Board Of
Education in the plans to secure Car
negie library in connection with the
Grammar and High Schools at the City
School building. Mr.. Mute reported
that Mr. Carnegie had replied favorably
to request for $500 library build
ing, but that the provision was that the
Board OF Mayor and Aldermen should
provide for ten per cent of the cost Of
the building for the maintenance of the
library Mr. Mute stated that this could
be made possible by the Superintendent
being made custodian of the library and
the appointment of teachers and others
to take charge of the library, without a
cent of extra cost to the city; that the
services of the Superintendent and as
sistants could be secured to look after
the library, the salaries they now receive
for their work in the school to be their
only pay. In other words the Superin-
tendent and teachers who have charge
of the school are simply to have their
duties enlarged to take in the conduct
and care of the library without extra
pay and without employing additional
help. That is the plan, and il is said
to be in use wherever these libraries are
buiIt-at Hickman and other places.
The proposition struck the members Of
the board as a good one and it was
adopted and signed without dissent.
The commercial. (Union City, Tenn.) 190?-193?, 1910-03-04

Mr.. Mute states that the agreement is
to be forwarded to Mr.. Carnegie imme.
diately for his approval, and in a short
time it is thought that the library build.
ing will be in the hands of the archi.
tect. The site of the library will be on
the southwest corner of the City School
lot opposite Mr. Pewitt's residence.
A petition asking for reduction OF
the charges for electric lights in the New
Church House of Worship on First
street was taken into consideration and
fiat rate of 25 cents per month was
voted for the church. This church has
meetings one Sunday in every two
months, and the prevailing rate is very
burdensome.
Petitions from citizens at the fair
grounds for walk from Jackson's gro
Gerry store to the graveled road on Third
street leading into the city, one from
DIR. Loring for concrete walk and 9th
ers for the same purpose were presented,
and after consideration referred to the
Streets and Sidewalks Committee for
further action. 1t was the sense of the
board to get together number of these
petitions and then let contract for a
large body of concrete walks, it being
thought that better contract could be
secured that way and better results OBJ
tanned than to build them in small
installments. The committee was in
structed to get bids on the work and
report at the next meeting.
Under the head of new business DIR.
Blanton presented to the board new
plan for keeping the city in better sani-
tary order He had paper he had
drafted suitable for an ordinance en-
bracing his plan, and it was to the effect
the city take charge Of the work OF
cleaning closets and removing excre-
ment and garbage, charging for the
service at the rate of 25 cents month,
payable quarterly in advance, for resi-
dences, and so cents per month, pay
able quarterly in advance, for hotels
and business places. Mr.. Blanton's
plan was that the city take charge OF
the work under the control Of the Water
and Light Plant, or some other head,
or to let it out by contract, requiring a
good bond for the proper discharge Of
duty In this plan DIR. Blanton con-
tihued to explain it was purposed to
provide all closets with tubs for the re-
ception Of the excrement, to have lid
covering the openings behind the closet,
TO the ground, operated on
hinges, that all closets be provided with
doors and fastenings and required to be
