an interest in the Farmers National

CITY IS Planning for
a Big Cleanup

They were: j. P. Powell, Emory
Rowland, Jesse Snyder and J. s.
Tiff, who would assume the duties
Of supervisor.
In behalf of the photographers
Of Abilene, Roy Forney petitioned
the commissioners to adopt an or
dinance, which will cause transient
photographers to pay license while
working at Abilene. The travelling
photographers jeome to Abilene and
voluntarily take pictures Of stores
and residences Of Abilene and then
develop the pictures without much
expense. The pictures are then tax
en- around to the places photograph
ed and scarcely does one refuse TO
purchase one of these pictures. This
takes a great deal Of work away
from the local photographers and
for that reason they have petitioned
the commissioners. An ordinance
to that effect was ordered drawn
up and will probably be adopted at
the next regular meeting.
The city clerk will move to MS
new office at the city hall tomor-
row. New office furniture has been
purchased and linoleum has been
nut down. A partition has been
made dividing the old council cham
ber into two sections. The COM
missioners use the back room for
their meetings and the partition has
been so constructed with doors that
it may be thrown open to accommo-
date a large crowd. The new Of
flee has a very neat appearance.
The regular monthly bills were
allowed.
