manager for the gas company and he
has been popular with the patrons Of

en- to make the service of the gas COM
pany as good as it possibly could be
made and he has been interested in
all phases of civic enterprise.
Mr.. Lambert is not quite ready
definitely to announce his future plans
and his successor has not yet been
appointed.

permanent improvement will follow
grading in this district Is question
that cannot be answered at the pres
