SAYS CITY RESERVOIR
IS WISE INVESTMENT
Dean E. ]. McCaustland
Favors Columbia's New
Sanitation Move.
COUNCIL TO DECIDE
Definite Plans of Construc-
tiOn Will Be Formed at
Next Meeting.

That the reservoir which was decid-
ed upon by the City Council Tuesday
night is much needed and is a wise in
vestment is the opinion of Dean E. j.
McCaustland of the School of Engi-
neering.
Definite plans and specifications will
be adopted at the next meeting of the
council. All that is known now is
that the reservoir will contain approx
imately 100000 gallons and that the
work of construction will likely be
done by the water and light depart
ment.
Columbia has long needed such
sanitary precaution, according to Dean
McCaustland, and its installation has
been delayed because it was not known
until recently that the water supply
would be great enough for the needs of
the city should it continue to grow as
it has in the last ten years. The
wells from which the water is drawn
are sunk more than 600 feet into a
limestone stratum which has its out
crop in the Ozark Mountains. The
water stands naturally about $50 feet
from the surface, and the pumps which
have been in use are not strong
enough to lower the level Of the wat
er fast enough to determine the rate
at which the wells are filled and, con-
sequently, the extent of the supply.
With the new compressed air pump,
which was installed about two weeks
ago, this has been determined: and
the supply is seen to be sufficient in
view of the possible continued in
crease in the population.
Until this was definitely determined,
the council did not wish to put money
into a plant which might later have to
be abandoned, but now that the supply
is known to be sufficient, the move
received its unanimous approval.
The reservoir will take the place of
the present clay basin, which, because
of its seepage and surface drainage,
is known to be insanitary. The new
concrete walls will prevent all sur
face contamination and will keep the
water as pure as when drawn from
the earth.

BUY 1T NOW
= SAVE FIFTY CENTS

Fishermen and hunters may
save fifty cents on each license
by buying them before May 21st,
as on that date the law passed
at the recent session of the Leg
islature goes into effect in
creasing the price Of hunting
and angling licenses from S1.00
to $1.50, and a combination Ii
cense from $500 to $500.
State Game Warden Carl d.
Shoemaker says that there has
been quite a rush for licenses in
many parts of the state, due in
all probably to the fact that the
raise in licenses will become eff
fective soon. Other changes in
the game code made at the ses-
sion of the Legislature just
closed are as follows:
Free running dogs, or dogs
following upon the track of any
game animal, may be declared a
nuisance after notification in
writing to the owner of dogs,
and the animals may then be
killed without any criminal or
civil liability on the part of the
person killing the same.
Women are exempt from pur-
chasing angling licenses, but
must obtain a hunting license II
they desire to hunt for any OF
the game birds and game AMI
mails Of the state.
The deer season for District
No. 1, which is western Oregon,

Lincoln County Leader,
Toledo, Oregon.
Dear Sir:
Has it ever come into your
mind about printing anything
about the Navy? You know we
are in need of good men and lots
of them.
l have been in the service for
quite a while and know a little
of the Navy and its ways. Every
young fellow that is a real man
should serve Uncle Sam and be
one of the many that have real
responsibility put to his test.
Good times are had every day
by the boys in boxing, wrest-
ling, fencing and in their race
boat tryouts. Then there are so
many chances for advancement
to higher ratings and good pay
that is all clear profit as you
have no board to pay. Just
think of the good times you
would have if you only join.
We get to go ashore every
other night for twenty-four
hours and have every other Sat
urday and Sunday, what more
does a fellow want? You lave
lots of time for every thing you
want to do and still have time
left over.
Think it over men and write
ME. | will be only to glad to
answer your questions what
ever they may be.
Your Naval friend,
Eugene Girdler,
Bremerton, Wash.
