All Furniture Tagged.

Tags were made. on which was print

rious articles, and in the blank spaces
was written the necessary data about
each article, such as the floor to which

Commerce building, the room number
and the space in the room it was to
occupy. With all articles plainly
marked there was not much for the
movers to do but to go to the old
buildings occupied by the department,
load the furniture on the wagons and
carry it to the places marked on the
tags. Every article, no ma.ter how

these tags.

from the new reservoir was simply
siphoned into the old reservoir and
mixed with the water that had prov

40 feet of water in the standpipe at

occurred and there was no more pres

CARD FROM THE BOARD
OF LIGHTS AND WATER
Review of Work Done In Past Two Years
Published For Information of The
City Tax Payers

To the Citizens and Taxpayers of
Marietta:
1t is to be presumed that every
citizen and taxpayer of Marietta is
familiar with the reasons that
prompted the city to build it's own
water works and electric lighting
systems. We wish, however, to
make brief statement about the
building of these two plants.
Prior to the time the city
voted bonds to build it's own water
works plant and install a system of
sewers, every one in Marietta knows
that the city had a contract with the
Kennesaw Paper Company, or its pre-
decessor, to supply water for domes-
tic use and for fire protection. All
know, too, that when FIRE did oc-
cur there was either no water in the
stand pipe or such lack of pressure
that the stream would not carry
to the roof or even the second story
In number OF fires. Every one al
so knows that after every rain the
water was so muddy that it could not
be used for drinking purposes, and
in the hot summer months it actual
~ smelled so badly that no one could
take bath in it without using dis
infectants or holding his nose during
the performance
The old water works company
promised two things, both of which
they failed to carry out First, they
promised to quit pumping water out

side of Marietta and into which a
