Sewer Discussed
Before Council


with ell members present and q much
larger audience than It Il accustomed
to zee. The audiense was there to
listen and also to be- heard with ref
erence to the proposed sewer system.
Some were there to boost for the
sewer and others were there to OPP
pose it, construction ut this time.
All were agreed that . good sewer
system would be beneficial to our
town, but some seemed to think that
it was no essential that 1t must be

Labor on the sewers might also cause

and In gathsrinng crops etc.
The sAottaee Of materials was an
