cited the evidence of his creative pow
err The creator has set before man

ALDERMEN IN. FAVOR OF
RAISING FIRE ENGINEERS PAY

Aldermen Glatzel, Knispel, Henze
and Lutovskys suggested to the coun-
Gil members at their regular meeting
Tuesday evening that if the city wants
to maintain a good engineer of fire
engines, the salary must be in
creased. mo man can devote all of
his time at such a job at this time and
receive $50 little payS' Alderman
Glatzel said. One of the aldermen fol-
lowed up by saying that plans were
under way to move the complete fire
alarm system from the west side sta
ton to the city hall. City Engineer
Kraeft gave approximate figures that
would be involved in the removal of
the fire alarm system to the city hall
He said such removal would cost
about $425.
Fire Chief CHASER said that a man
would be needed regardless of wheth-
er or not the fire alarm system would
be removed and said that Mr.. Kerstell
has refused to work for the same pay.
The matter was turned over to the
fire and police commission.

Human Machinery,

We have headaches and colds, not

Of some good, pure oxygen.
Mechanics take much better care OF
their machinery than they do Of their
own bodies. They know that unless
the machine Is cleaned, oiled and rest
ed occasionally it will not run prop
erly. How often do they think of the
importance Of caring for their human
machinery? They run it at the high
est tension, feed it on stale air and
improper food and then become sur
prised If 1t runs down.
