WaterFan1ine!

1t is with regret that this Company
is again called upon to warn it's pa
irons in the careful use of water. Our
storage supply is completely exhaust
ed, so that we are pumping into our
reservoirs alone the daily supply run
ming from our streams, which is di-
minishing day by day. Many rains
fallen in Annapolis have passed by our
wter sheds entirely. A personal in
spection of our plant reveals the fact
that our supply TODAY is lower than
at any time during the drouth of last
year.
1t is ABSOLUTELY IN PERAIVE
that all street and lawn sprinkling be
discontinued. While the public has
cordially co-operated with the Com
pany towards this end, it is regret
able fact that some persons still con-
tinue to sprinkle their lawns gardens
and streets, utterly unmindful of the
injury they are working the COM
munity.
No charge will be made for street
or lawn service from July !, 1911, I'M
til further notice.
1t is ABSOLUTELY IMPERATIVE
that this appeal be STRICTLY and
HONESTLY OBSERVED.

would open and run, making large
sores. His hair came out and finger
nails fell of, and the sores were over
the entire body. causing little or NO
sleep for baby or myself. Great scabs
would come OF when / removed his
