citizens when advertised in the WA
terville Seminal" which act completed
the steps necessary to make this code
a part of the Board Of Health regula-

time had no part in this code, il being
adopted, as above, as regulation Of
the Board Of Health. This code went
into effect on Jan. /, 1915.
At your April meeting the present

Of condemned and referred to the city

city council vote a salary to the meat
inspector elected by them, DR.. J. w.
Stewart. and stated at the request Of
the city government that they were
willing to change that part Of the code
that requires the collection Of fees. At
that meeting the board Of aldermen
