Oh! WHERE, OH!
WHERE IS THE
SURVEY MONEY?
Councilman Thompson ChaI-
lengeS Mayor Keller and
His Board of Health
About Fund.

What of The sanitary survey
What is the mayor and the board Of
health doing with the $4,000 appro-
pr.ated by this council for that pur-
pose? Since the money was pro-
Vided nothing has been heard OF the
great effort which was 10 be made
To- clean up South Bend"
Thus did Councilman Thompson
challenge Mayor Keller and his
board Of health AT the council com
mittee OF the whole last night. Since
the money was appropriated several
weeks ago over the objections OF
several councilmen the administra-
tion has failed To carry out its
promises although by various pre-
texts has postponed the sanitary
survey.
The question asked 10y Council
man Thompson was brought forth
following q statement that the city
administration was unable TO pro-
vide funds for the immediate in
crease of salaries of members of
the police and fire departments. IT
was stated that the city has only
about $4,000 unappropriated, while
the salary increase would amount
10 approximately $1,000 per month.
The SO 600. the councilmen asserted.
would not care for the increased
salaries this year. therefore il was
decided 20 make the ordinance eff
fective on Jan. /. 1917.
When the ordinance providing for
the increased payroll was brought
mp there was much talk OF the high
cost OF living. both pro and con.
and figures were produced showing
that members Of the fire depart
newt are drawing salaries below the
cost Of the necessities OF life Coun-
Gilman Miller urged an increase OF
10 per cent in the salaries instead
Of - per cent. as the present

then he has actually filled a cavity
with cement. but extraction is the
more popular manner OF relieving a
patient in pain. In performing this
operation Denman scorus the for
cops methods of his white garmented
brethren. His treatment is merely
an evolution OF the good old fashion
ed scheme taught by our grand
mothers whereby one end OF
string is fastened about the objec-
uonab le tooth and the other end
tied 20 fat iron or door knob after
which following a good deal of pro-
crastination. the door was slammed
or the iron dropped. The evolu-
ton consists of using a strand OF
cable in lieu OF Irvine and "a couple
OF husky assistants 20 yank the same.
When the free end OF the strand has
been properly attached 10 the 'Snag,
Denman gives a signal with his in
candescent lamp much after the
fashion OF a brakeman waving a Ian

geon 10 the elephant herd but his
role of dentist is always the more
