BOARD GETS ESTIMATE OF
PROPOSED SEWER EXTENSION
ENGINEER MAKES REPORT OF
SURVEY-TO GET COST
OF NEW PUMP.

A tentative plan Of extensive munich
pal improvements was suggested at a
meeting of the Lake Linden village
council last night when the clerk was
requested 10 secure estimates on the
cost Of an electric pump and Engineer
Mcdonald reported the estimate on the
extension ~ the sewer system in the
north end Of the village. While no de-
cision 20 undertake this work this year
was reached. il is apparent that the
program will be mapped out If the
treasury can withstand the drain.
The pump will be a part of the new
fire system which will be installed this
year The change involves the eXpen-
dture OF between $4,000 and $4,000,
which includes the laying of approXi-
mately a half-mile of pipe. connecting
the mains with the reservoir. Bids for
the pipe were not opened last night,
but the contract likely will be awarded
at a special meeting TO be held later
in the month.
The sewer extension will cost APP
proximately $4,000, according to the
estimate Of the engineer. The extern
sion will be 1000 feet i'm length and
the pipe will vary from eight TO 10
inches in diameter. In the event that
this extension will be made this year
it is likely that the village will loan
about $4,000.

HOUGHTON FAIRGROUNDS
NOW IN GOOD CONDITION
EFFORTS OF PHYSICAL DIREC-
TOR WAGNER SEEN AT

schools and several high school stud
ents have been working at Vivian
field in East Houghton, preparing the

OF their efforts may now be seen az

The field was donated 10 the high

the late Johnson Vivian. At that
time it was in poor condition, but for
several months it was used as an ath-
letic field by the teams representing
the local high school. Some time ago.
at the request OF Supt. T. A Doelle,
the council appropriated a sum of
money for repairing the field and
placing II in condition for a play
ground. Physical Director Wagner
was placed in charge Of the work and
secured the aid Of the boys Of the
high school The money donated was
insufficient and several individuals
were appealed to for aid. With the
money collected by subscriptions IL
has been possible 20 complete the
work necessary and Houghton young
sters viii now reap the benefit.
The field was leveled and graded
and a baseball diamond laid out. This
is in excellent shape at the present
time.
Tennis courts We're also laid out on
the field and apparatus for other play
erected. The courts have been rolled
and placed in good shape, the nets
having been Installed Yesterday.
