SEVEN CLASS PERIODS WERE

Seven class periods, all on Mon
day morning, was the record made
at high school this morning. II takes
an ordinary school day to hold that
number of classes; but the periods
were not 40 minutes long as usual.
This was reorganization day at
high school for the second semester.
Assignments were made and the stu
dents we're enrolled-then they were
dismissed at the noon hour for the
remainder of the day. The teachers
were busy this afternoon checking

ing a schedule for the second term
work. Tomorrow will be the official

WHAT ABOUT THIS PLAN OF
TAPPING ABILENE'S WATER?
Railroads May Pump From Wells
at Sand Springs.

The Herington Times says THE
budget for 1912 for the Rock Island
recommends that water be piped
from the Sand Springs at Abilene,
or that Lime Creek be damned SO
as to provide for water supply. 1t
is understood that the budget has
contained this recommendation for
several years. However, since all
water supplies were practically ex-
hausted last summer and fall by
the drouth, the company VIII no
doubt give the matter more serious
attention. 1t has been suggested by
some that the city unite with the
Rock Island in piping water from
the Sand Springs. Bringing water
from that distance would of course
cost an immense sum, and before
either the city or road attempts It,
they will investigate the project care
fully"
The three railroads, Union Pacif-
ic, Santa Fe and Rock Island, have
their rights of way just north OF
the springs and the water to the
springs runs under this ground. They
would have the right to sink wells
and tap the vein if they desired. II
has been rumored that if Abilene
raises the water rate to the rail-
roads to figure above what pump
ing will cost the roads will put down
WEN at Sand Springs and get theil
own water. 1t might be disastrous
| to Abilene's water supply and there
would probably be a fight to stoI
it. A spring is delicate concern u
tamper with and very little inter
ference might change its course Of
ruin it entirely. Abilene better o.
watching this new move.

BETTER sERvICE-lEss COST.
Costs City Less for Water Under the
New Pumping System.

Since the light company has been
pumping water for the city 1t has
cost the city much less for better
service than under the old plan,
where the city maintained a pump
ing plant and did it's own pumping.
Instead of doing the pumping at
loss, as formerly, the city is now
profiting at least a hundred dollars
a month on the proposition Con
eordia Kansan.
Abilene lost its opportunity OF saw
ing. $1,000 per year in the cost OF
pumping its water when 1t recently
voted down an extension of the cleo
trio light franchise. AS will be re-
aembered the light company agreed
to furnish power for Sand Springs
at a saving to the city of $1,000 per
year. Concordia was wise and took
advantage of their light companys
offer.

But a few of the members were
unable to pay the amount of money
they had pledged and the trustees
found that a debt of $3.50 remained
AGAINST the church at the close Of
the year 1911. Why not pay off
this debt they said?
Two weeks ago last Sunday the
members of the church were told d
the debt that was still against thu
