The January meeting of the We
nonah improvement Association was
held on Saturday evening. The COM
mittee has had mailed to every home
in our borough letter and reply pos
tai, issued by the Association, that
explains itself. This ash question has
been troublesome one for many and
was taken up for two reasons. First
to provide a means whereby ashes
could be disposed of regularly at a
reasonable cost; second that in pro-
viding this means many unsightly ash
i heaps would disappear and hence add
to the general appearance of the sur
! roundings. AS the season is of short
duration and the monthly cost made
reasonably low, many of our people
will no doubt gladly avail themselves
OF the opportunity here afforded them
OF having this troublesome ash cues
ton solved for them. The Association
has selected trustworthy man, who
will call weekly without fail, remove
all ashes and return all receptacles
to their proper places. The Associa-
tlon assumes no responsibility as tc
the monthly payments, as these will
4 be made direct to the collector. Any
little odd jobs which are continually
| turning up and usually no one around
to do them, will be gladly taken care
OF through the ash collection depart
ment' at very reasonable rates. Fur
ther details can be had by asking the
committee: Geo. Il. Dilks, Chas. Hob
son and Frank DurelI.
