TOWN BOARD IN SESSION

The Arvada Town board held it's
regular monthly meeting last Mon
day evening with all the members ex-
cept Trustee Stalcy. who is in Cal
ifornia, present. Adjournment was
had much earlier than us,uil, there
being very little business to trans
act. aside from allowing the regulu,
grist of bills.
Marshal TownSlcy had IL meter
tester on display. which will cost $50
but which was thought fnvorably of
by the entire board ms n protection
to the water consumers, some Of
whom complain that they are paying
mere for the water used than they
think they should. Heretofore the
custom has been to measure the wn-
ter and time il. With this system
some were still unconvinccd that the
watcr bills were in proportion to
what their ncighbors are paying. An
other thing that makes the tester nm
advisable purchase Is that the Utili-
ties Commission requires that the
meters shall be properly tested when
complaint is made. The device is
to he tried out and II II liz found to
be accurate il wilI no doubt be pur-
chased nt the mkt board meeting.
Tho board also decided to improve
the crossing from the First National
Bnnk across Wndsworth with n new
cement walk where the old on" has
become NO badly out Of rcpair. This
Improvement is made necessary at
this time because of the irrignting
ditch which crosses Mt the same plhr"
needing to have new flumc and the
board thought IL best to make II per
mnncnt improvement while they ARE
nbOut IL.
