consumers have been paying their bills
lairly we'll and have reduced tho

to clear up the entire amount at once
or remove those who refuse TO pay
from the list of water consumers.
This morning Manager Stocky
mailed TO all delinquents a formal no.
tics informing them that unless they
raid their bills or made some salts
factory explanation of inability to do
so within five days the water would be
shut off without further notice
Some of the bills for water are over
four years old, ana unless they are
collected now the city probably will
lose the entire amount, some eight
hundred dollars. As a matter of fact
he is not required to give these delin-
quents any notice at all, being allowed
tc shut off the water without anything
being said about it, but under the cir.
