"G(5entlemen:--We have about COM
pleted our contract with you on ad-
ver!ising for this season.
We want to say that we are very
much pleased with the results OBJ
tanned in your territory. We feel
that the advertising has been pro-
ductive and we hope to be with you
again next wear.
AT this time we are particularly
interested in the conservation of
food. We have selected certain rec
ipes from our cook book reproduc-
ing them on the card enclosed here
with. This card shows four separate
ways in which corn meal may be
prepared for the table as a substi-
tute for wheat. We expect to get
these recipes before the greatest
number of people in the shortest
possible time.
The above is from a leading ma
tional advertiser and shows that The
Review brings splendid results.

DOingS Of City Council

The rOcmac work On Centennial
avenue was again up for discussion
and representative Of the company
was present. This gentle man stated
that any and every part of the work
showing defect would be put in
good condition. The company's rep
resentative made a proposition to
put a top surface on the rocmac
similar to the asphalt streets at a
cost not to exceed lGc per square
yard. The city council finally agreed
to pay half of the cost with the YER
bal understanding that said extra
work would cost from Sc to 10c per
square yard. Centennial street will
be finished by Thanksgiving, GER
tainly- not later than Dec 10th,
thought the man in charge.
The question of allowing room in
the city schools for private enter
prises came up and it was the unan-
imous opinion Cf the board that it
was not fair to the taxpayers or the
school to allow such. This brought
attention to the school advisory
board which can be of help in such
matters.
The law regarding using public We
hicles for immoral purposes passed
second reading and is now law as
we'll as the ordinance relating to
buying junk from minors under 16
wears of age, etc. Every junk dealer
must keep a true and accurate re-
port of all junk bought, from whom
street address, etc. for ready inspec
ton by the proper officers. A heavy
fine follows for any infractions OF
these laws.
The question of a salary raise fol
the judge<of the municipal court
prosecuting attorney. and desk ser
eeant came before the board and il
was suggested that the city manager
and city attorney were entitled tc
the same consideration After s0me
little discussion it was agreed to lei
the matter rest until the six months
"Drobation" term had ended, which
is less than month. 1t was shown
bv figures that the judge and prose
cutting attorney were doing a grea
deal more work than formerly. that
! living was higher, ETC., and that The
raise was justified. These facts hole
good as to the city manager, attor
ney and desk sergeant also. :.
The proper way to assess proper
ty-owners for street improvement:
was discussed at length, much Law
was cited and the requests for paw
ine districts read, to throw light or
, the matter. City Attorney Peacock
was given the task to unravei the
problem so as to give general salts
