ways and means to eliminate this
condition.
Waste paper and rubbish recep-
tacles TO be placed on The corners

parks were considered. but no type
of container was agreed upon.
Something is wanted that can be
easily handled to dump and yet be
large enough to contain the refuse

ed to- deposit therein.
Whether the containers will help
in keeping the streets clean is
doubted by some of the aldermen.
who assert that no attention will
be paid by the people to the plan.
To overcome this. il was propos-
ed to have plainly iettered signs
printed relative to littering the
streets and to eventually take &C
ton which would make 1t a NUM-
cipal offense to deposit rubbish OH
a city street. The cans or boxes

WHEN ARE ALEDO

Especial to The Argus.)

Aledo, Ill, June 17.-"When are
the city streets to be oiled?'
The question was put by Alder
man C. c.. Bowers in city council
meeting last evening.
Discussion developed the fact
that it has always been the Gus
tom for the business men to APP
point a committee 10 .ook after
this matter, independent OF the mu-
nicipality.
Il am asking this question be-
cause a number of my constitu-
ents put it up to me. had four
or five people ask me today" stat
ed Alderman Bowers. II am un-
acquainted with the situation"
1t was the consensus of opinion
of the aldermen that the oiling
should be done promptly. 1t was
pointed out that it is now mid
summer and practically every
town that has oiling to do has done
it. Sentiment of the council seems
opposed to having the city oiling
done in conjunction with that
planned for the country highways
during the middle of July, for the
reasons that the date is too late
and that confusion and difficulty
might be experienced in handling
the two propositions satisfactorily
at the same time.
The street COMMITTEES was order
ed to investigate as to the delay
and report back to the council at
its next meeting. Meanwhile ef-
forts will be made to get the city
CLING under way.

MANY ADOPT TRAINING.

The marked growth of the indus
trial training idea in manufactur-
ing plants is indicated by the re-
port recently issued by the United
States training service of the de-
partment of labor showing that to-
Gay $50 concerns maintain train
ing departments as against ap-
proxmately 200 last November
This steady increase is regarded
as proof that manufacturing inter
ests in this country do not consider
industrial training merely as a
wartime measure.
