"The amount OF water that is re-
CURED to supply the lawn sprinklers
during the heated term" said Mayor
Sweet to The Forum this morning,
makes 1t almost impossible for the
pumping station to maintain the pres
u r that is absolutely necessary for
the fire department. in case of fire.
"a spirit of self preservation IL not
patriotism, should induce every
householder n renter to turn off
his sprinkler at once in case Of an
alarm of fire.
1T is true that a meter system
would remedy this, but we cannot
get this Immediately. In the mean
white we must rely on the co-opera-
ton Of the people. If the fire of a
couple of nights ago had occurred
Under less favorable conditions, the
results might have been very seri-
GUS.
''The ordinances Of the city require
that lawn sprinklers be used only be-
tween the hours of 5 and 9 in the
morning and between s and 8 in the
evening, and 1t is necessary that
these rules be observed to the LETT
ter. Many people understand the mat
ter and will kindly comply, while
those who do not will receive notice
OF arrest from plain clothes men.
VINO " Will be necessary to put on
Tor this purpose. This will mean a
neavy fine to violators Of the ordi-
nance
Speeders Get Notice.
The mayor has something to say
! regard to those who have beer
guilty Of violating the speed limit
ordinance.
There have been many complaints
cOmtng to this office" said the
mayor, that the speed limit is being
continuously and ruthlessly violated
by many autoists and in certain
places in the city. The police have
been instructed to keep a tab on
those violators and it is the inten-
ton that arrests will be made with
out regard as to who the people are.
1t is a disagreeable task to have to
proceed to extremes, but apparently
there is no other way to break up
this growing evil"
