WASHINGTON TIMES BUREAU,
ANACOSTJA. d. C., OCT. s


The East Washington Heights Citi-
gems Association will hold its first
meeting in several months next Mon
day night in the East Washington
Heights Baptist Church, in the Bowen
road. The citizens will work to obtain
an extension of the District water sys-
tenn to their suburb, and as they
scined with the Congress Heights Citi-
zens' Association and other bodies in
the successful effort that resulted in the
appropriations for the Congress Heights
water mains, they are looking for as
sistance from their suburban neighbors
in the same direction.
The Distric. has already extended the
mains to Twining City, only a couple of
miles away, and it is believed it will
require but small appropriation TO
carry them to the Heights. The eG-
perience of the residents with wells has
been disastrous, as the water has been
found to be impure, and the wells very
often run dry. The District has sunk
wells at the Stanton School, the Gar
field School, and the old frame school,
but without success.
When the Columbia Association of
Baptist Churches convenes in the city
on November 26 the officiary of the
various Baptist churches then assem-
bled Will be asked to help out with ths
project of erecting a Baptist church in
3 Congress Heights. There has been q
mission church and a Sunday school
conducted there for several years, with
the Rev. Quirof Harlan as the present
pastor, but the congregation is grow
jng and the quarters in the town hall
are deemed to be inadequate. There
Shave been purchased two lots at Esther
piace and Nichols avenue measuring
30 by 100 feet, and $1,000 has been paid,
clearing the debt. Il is here the new
church is to be bUilt.
Charles F. Purdy has been named as
the chairman of the building commit
tee.

constitutional treatment. Halls
Catarrh Cure is taken internally,
acting directly upon the blood and
