had been contracted for there alone. 'Supt.H Deanef said S120 ,00os was needed to provide new schools to meet the growing demand in addition to the $200,000 the board already has. The normal increase in school pupils for the past two years has been 800 per year and Dr, Deane said the increase during coming years would be greater.
 pr. Deane said in reply to questions by Mayor Wilson regarding elininat- ing the 1 mill tax and building schools by bonding that it was desirable that the money be secured no matter how 1t was raised pr. Deane said it was for the board to explain it's needs for new schools and for another board to provide the money.
 Commissioner Leeds asked if the board had $120,000 in addition to the the needs of the board. Dr. Deane said he thought it would. Dr. Deane said the enrolment in the parochial was about $500.
 Quite some saving there.s' remark ed Commissioner Kirk.
 Dr. Deane said the nurses visited the parochial schools when asked. pr. Deane said the paro chial schools were doing good. He said he was at liberty to go into the upper grades of the parochia1 schools and examine the work He also said the board would | grant the s2o0.0O0 bond issue and therefor the board had asked for the usual 1 mill tax. He said that portable buildings were being used in connec- ton with II schools so that all those scho1s should be enlarged.
 When you bought that piece of property on Commercial street didn't you give big price for it ?a asked James Biake1ey. No member of the board answered and MT. Blakeley sub sided.
 City Engineer Terry said his requisi- ton for $25. .000 was practically the same as last year. He said he thought an automobile runabout for his use would save the city much money in saving of time and service which he now expended going about for the diff ferent jobs to supervise the work. He
 had included $900 in requisition for the purchase and maintenance of a car of the Ford type. He said the l proposal of $7,5OO for block maps was to keep the work going into the First district, the tax districts having been 1 obliterated by recent law. Nothing l developed in the way of increases in salaries for members of the city en- gineers staff which 1t was expected would come up when the city engineer was heard.
 The telephone service amounting to I about 30 per year was reduced from

All Clogged Up? l Here's Quick Relief
A Simple Remedy to Correct Constipation Before It
 Becomes Chronic


 Very few people go through lifs without some time or other being troubled with constipation. Thou sands injure themse1ves by the use of strong cathartics. salts, min era1 wa ters, pills and similar things. They have temporary value in some cases. It is true, but the gooa effect is soon lost. and the more one takes of them the less effective they become.
 A physic or purgative is seldom nec- essary. and much better and more permanent results can be obtained by using a scientific remedy like Dr. CaId wells Syrup Pepsin. It does not hide behind a high sounding name, but is what it is represented to be, a mild laxative medicine. It is so mild that thousands of mothers give it to tiny infants, and yet it is so compounded, and contains such definite ingredients that it will have equally good effect when used by a person suffering fr0n Ihe worst chronic constipation. In fact, among the greatest endorsers of have suffered for years and found noth- ing to benefit them until they took Syrup Pepsin.
