CITY COUNCIL NOTES.

Sentee.
A resolution to buy a rotary sweeper
for sweeping macadam and gravel
streets preparatory to oiling was re-
ferred.
The finance committee recommended
allowing the library board $4,000 and
the school board S67, 800 for the coming
year. The sums were allowed unani-
mousy. This in an increase of about
5000 for schools.
The school boards proposal Of re-
tanning wall to hold the bank on the
line between the Union park and the
Madison school grounds was killed and
it viii oe ordered to be sloped and
sodded. This was because of the dan
er OF the pupils falling oil the wall.
The paying resolution was trimmed
down TO include only seven short
pieces. The board of public works
was requested to include specifications
for concrete paving and the engineer
was instructed TO report on the neces-
sary underground work. Where
mains are IN paving will be done in
1917 and where they are still to be laid
the paving will be deferred for a year.
