DRAINAGE MATTER
CONFRONTS COUNTY
Commissioners to Discuss
Proposed System for
Spring Grove.
$1,000 COST OF SEWER
-THs+
Surveyor Peacock Says Tenn
porary Ditch Would Cost
About $500.
$1,000 COST OF SEWER

The matter of drainage at Spring
Grove is one of the most serious which
confronts the county commissioners at
this time and it is expected that some
action will be taken soon by the Off
ciaIs to remedy conditions there to
the satisfaction of the property hold
ers.
County officials believe the property
owners should have a sewer system
installed which would drain the water
from that section. The water is all sur
face water and many of the yards are
small ponds during heavy rainstorms
Most of the water runs into Spring
Grove from the north.
The contention is being brought uI
at this time because of the construc
tion of the North Tenth street Inn
provement which is being done under
the three-mile road law. The residents
want the officials to make an appro
remedy the present conditions. 1t Is
contended that this cannot be done &C
cording to law.
A temporary ditch would cost about
$500 while a sewer would cost $4,000
according to the estimates of County
Surveyor Peacock. The matter will be
taken up again by the commissioner:
at their next regular session. Though
conditions are no worse than they
have been for the last thirty years the
residents believe some action should
| be taken at this time because of tht
new improvement to the road.

Have you ever thought" said the
little man. as he paved for the rail
with his left foot. why it is that so
many people small in stature have &C.
complished such great things in the
world? I'll tell you. It's because they
get their dander up. They get tired OF
being looked down upon and of being
treated patronizingly by the big fell
lows, and they just resolve to show
people that they are worth something
even though their height may be in the
vicinity of five feet. In word. quail

to. Another thing that I've noticed
about the little folk is that they have
learned to conserve their energies and
how to take care Of themselves. Your

The Marchesa San Germano, former
" Miss Virginia Hoge OF Louisville,
KY, who recently arrived in New

will seek legal separation from her

warning to title-seeking American
girls:
American girls who marry Euro"
pean noblemen take great risks. Many
of them soon after marriage realize
that the code OF honor Of the titled for
