WATERWORKS- YET.

The Press has harped so much
about waterworks for Marion
that it rained last Sunday. And
that is not all. There is going
to be something in this paper
about waterworks every week
until we get EN-. We can prove
that it is cheaper to have water
than not to have it. We can
prove that it is more healthful
for a town to have water and
sewer system than not to have
them. No proof is necessary that
it is much more convenient to
draw water out of a faucet than
it is out of a well. Hardly nee
essary to prove that it is much
pleasanter to take a bath in a
regular bath tub than it is in the
wash tub, or similar utensil.
Since every one will concede the
truth of these statements then
will some one explain why Ma
rion will do without waterworks?
The editor of the Press asked
one of the promoters of the new
light company why water
wasn't added to the commodities
they were going to sell and he
said that they didn't think that
would pay dividends for a yeal
or so after installation. We'll
wager a couple of two dollar cats
against a four dollar dog tina,
the savings on insurance pre-
miums in Marion would pay {
handsome dividend on the entire
investment OF a water, light, lcs
and cold storage plant and have
enough left over to buy cigar:
for the directors when they met
Any way a water system woulC
have paid a handsome divident
on the morning of July 22. Let
not forget that. Marion mus
start construction on this waite
system before July first. 1920
