Town Board Trans
acts Town Business

The town board met in its reg
ular monthly meeting Monday
evening, and transacted the city s
business, Mayor McFadden in the

bill from the firm who furnished
the motor for the new pumping

be held on the 18th, when the agent
of the company will be asked to
come and explain.
Mr.. Helm, the clerk, made a com
Trehensive report as to the earn
irgs Of the water plant, and it was
found that it was being operated
at some profit. There are. how
ever, fifty houses and buildings
within the city which do not use
the city water, and five wells
which are furnishing water to in
dividual families.
The matter of sidewalks on Raj
ston avenue was discussed, and it
was deplored that the property
owners have not paid the city for
the same Some of the board
were of the opinion that the rea-
son some had not paid was that
they had to pay only 6 per cent
interest while they could loan
their own money at higher rate.
Steps will be taken to get this
matter Strengthened out SO that
the town can get its money to use
for other purposes.
The board authorized the pay.
ment of $500 principal and $6C
interest on the city hall as per
agreement. This clears up halt

for tine actual operations We're to
begin on the turkey, and leaving
the ladies in full possession, Mr..
Barth, with his we'll known tact
of making others happy. brought
his machine to the door and took
the men of the party JOY riding
We went to Naples and Seal
Beach, two nearby towns, beaut-
fully situated on the shores of
the great Pacific. We had not
time Tor extensive explorations.
That turkey looming up in the
distance acted as a powerful
magnate to draw us back to head
quarters We returned inst in
time. The dining room was a
perfect bower Of beauty, great
masses of ferns, smilax and hol-
ly, great bonghs of oranges as
nature had left them with the
fruit all on, tlittin9ly arranged.
An ingenious piece Of workman
ship about two feet high standing
in the center of the table and
banked with flowers had a most
pleasing effect. This was the
work of Albert Barth Jr. Those
of us who were fortunate enough
to partake of this feast of good
cheer were Mr.. and Mrs. earn
eigie, Mr.. and Mrs. West, Mr.
and Mrs. Barth and Albert Barth
Jr. Only one thing to mar the
occasion. Mr.. Shoop and sister,
owing to previous engagement,
were unable to be present, a real
disappointment to us all. Aitel
the dinner, a short musical pro
gram was carried out with Mrs
Carnegie presiding at the piano
But that was not all. In the

Mclean could not think of sittin,

with many misgivings we decid

what we had already gone thru
Suffice it to say that Mr.. Shoop
and siser know howto give a goot
dinner. Two turkey dinners il
two consecutive days is no ordin
airy feat. IL is said that the
priests in the time of Moses were
champion bird eaters of tn,

keys, they haven't a thing on us.
But after all, it is not the goot
things we have to eat that counts

which makes the day one sacred
