The resolution recommended that

basis. beginning with number 100 as

number. and also recommended that
the city number all buildings and
houses without expense to the prop
crty owners and further thar the city
adopt Somc system OF marking the
streets and avenues.
The original system considered by
the Chamber Of Commerce providing
for numbering In from the outskirts
and putting Main and Commercial
street In the 300 block. The busi-
ness men objected to the radical
change In numbering. This system
keeps che small numbers In the down
town district. changing but few
within the business district. and ear
ricd out makes all parallel blocks
uniform Throughout the city. Ev-
cryone present last night approved
the system and extended n vote of
thanks TO the city engineer FOR his
labors.
1t was pointed out by several men,
bcrs that one thing that was ncces-
sary Is that streets and avenues he
marked. There are any number OF
streets that have no sign posts and
the strGngcr $,nacquaintcd with the
town and many who have lived here
a long while cannot locate streets.
1t was recommended that the city
council adopt some plan OF, marking
all the streets.
