COUNCIL MEETING.
Cedar Street Problem Nearing SOlu-
tion--Legislation For Improve
ment of East Chestnut and East
Elm Streets--What About Water
Supply

Every member Of the Council was
present at the regular meeting of
that body last Monday evening.
The first item of business tackled
by the Village legislature was the
Cedar Street problem and that was
ushered in by report and PROPOSE
tion presented for the street COM
mittee by councilman H. H. Williams.
Mr.. Williams reported that the
east half of the Springer lot, corner
of Cedar and East Oak streets, on
which the building formerly occupi-
ed by the Rural Egg Company stands
could be purchased for $500 and that
ten foot strips from the east ends
of the Clara Orndorff and Domitio
lots could be purchased for $500
each, this would clear the way to
straighten the west side of Cedar
street and construct sidewalks paral-
lei with the east side of the street
and give inress and egress to resi-
dence properties on the west side of
the street from Oak street. The
proposition mada by Mr. Williams
was in effect that the Village purchase
the lands mentioned and establish
sidewalk lines parallel with side
walks on east side of the street max
ing a 40 or As foot street with 20 foot
roadway, five foot sidewalks and b
to 71h foot boulevards. This pro-
position was discussed at length and
concensus Of opinion seemed TO be in
favor of accepting the report and
proposition such a motion was made
and carried unanimously and the
city solicitor was instructed to pre-
pare necessary legislation authoriz-
ing the purchase of the parcels of
land involved.
Resolution declaring it necessary
to construct a storm water sewer on
East Chestnut street from Shoop
Avenue to outlet on west branch of
Turkeyfoot Creek was introduced and
passed.
An ordinance to improve East
Chestnut Street from east line If
Fulton street to the west line Of
Shoop Avenue by paving with rein
forced concrete was read and passed
under suspension or rules.
An ordinance to construct a sani-
tary sewer en- the south side OF East
Elm street from east line of Shoop
AvenAa to Gledwood street thence
north about 300 feet to outlet in
west branch of Turkeyfoot Greek
was presented and under suspension
Of rules passed the three readings and
passed.
An ordinance to improve East Elm
street from, east line of Shoop Aven-
ue To Elmwood street by paving with
water bound macadam was introduces
passed the three readings and pass
ed under suspension of the rules.
Mr.. F. r. Harper was present to
ask for permit to construct cir
cular driveway on the boulevard in
front Of his garage on North Fulton
street for the convenience Of autos
getting air, oil or gasoline at his
filing station and thus avoid block
ing of traffic on the street. Mr.
Harper's request was referred tC
the street committee. This request
brought up the question of the right
Of merchants to mark off non-parkin1
spaces for automobiles in front O.

The BIC FAIR
The Fulton County Fair September
2, 3, 4, and 5th Presents Most
Attractive Program Ever Offered
-Wauseon Boy Scout Band-In-
spring Exhibits

The Fulton County Agricultural
Association is presenting the most at
tractive call round" program for its
sixty-second annual Fair that has
ever been presented on the old Full
ton County Fair Grounds.
There is positively something for
everybody, whatever their varied
tastes may be, to enjoy. The ad-
mission price remains the same as
ever in spite Of soaring prices every
where else and for everything else.
Twenty-Five cents pays the price
and every day is children's day so far
as their free admission to the grounds
is concerned.
To begin with there are the
Amusements and Recreations
There is full booking of amuse-
ment and recreation concessions; more
than there have been at the Fulton
County Fair for years and years:
Among them is the big Carousal
Swing and the popular Ferris Wheel
to furnish fun, frolic and merrimeut
for old and young alike. Then there
are acrobats, jugglers and magicians
to amuse and amaze: There is
singing and dancing and one of the
special features is marvellous exhi-
bition of relics and curios from all
over the world, from lands you have
read and wondered about and some
from far away, t-of-the-way lands
that you have never even heard
about. IF you are out for fun and to
forget "dull care" for a day or so you
will surely find the opportunity at
the Fulton County Fair. You can
eat, drink, be merry and get fresh
supply of "ginger and spizerinktum"
to put into your life and work at the
Fair this year! don't forget it.
Wal seon Boy Scout Band
! The Fair Directors have secured the
Wauseon Boy Scout Band for this
years fair and they have something
if you're talking about band music.
From forty to fifty of the livest, real
boys that you ever saw in your life
making the most inspiring and
rhythmic music you ever heard in your
life. These boys are real musicians.
Up at Wolf Lake, Michigan at their
annual Scout Camp; Michigan folks
came for miles to hear them play and
went wild over the music they made.
Mr.. Koehler, their instructor and di-
rector is one of the most successful
and popular Band Masters in the
United States and his efficiency is
certainly demonstrated in the music
made by the >Wauseon Boy Scout
Band. You will want to hear them
on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday
of Fair week. There isn't another
band like it in the State.
Aviator of International Fame
4 The Board of Directors have pre-
pared a wonderful surprise for Fair
visitors by engaging Lieutenant
Francis E. Blanchard, late U. S. Fly
ing Instructor at Ellerton Field,
II Texas, to give exhibitions of Flying
and aerial acrobatic stunts, on We'd
nesday, Thursday and Friday of the
fair. Lieut.. Blanchard holds a
worlds championship for aerial aero
battles and he will give thrilling ex-
hibitions of all the air stunts you have
ever read or heard about. This is
one of the most startling free attrac-
tions offered at any fair in the State
this season-bar none.

After twenty-one months in the
service. Lieutenant Cy Hecker is
back in Harrisburg ready to re-
sumo his place in civilian life.
Cy was stationed at Camp Han
cock, where he was in charge of
conservation and reclamation work,
branch of the service which he
helped TO organize at Camp Han
cock, one of the first in which it was
inaugurated.
Conservation and reclamation
work had as its object to prevent
waste, if preventable; if not pre-
ventable to reclaim; and if neither
preventable- nor reclamable to dis
pose Of waste to the most profitable
advantage of the government. 1t
was inaugurated about a year ago,
patterning after the British example.
and has resulted in thousands of
dollars of revenue to the govern
ment.
Just as an example, before this
department was inaugurated gar
bage was considered waste. Since
conservation and reclamation work
took hold of matters. all the gar
bage from camps was sold at a
good price. yielding revenue to
Uncle Sam.
Cy got into the work early in the
game. and after becoming thorough
ly schooled in the subject was sent
to various camps lecturing on the
subject and helping to organize 9th
er camps in the work. He also con-
tributed various articles to Trench
Camp, the official camp paper
in all cantonments in this countw.
His knowledge of the subject and
the need of his service rendered in
this work prevented him from get
ting overseas.

GREAT MUSIC
AT ORPHEUM
New York Syncopated Orches-
ira Pleases Big House With
Folk Songs and Melodies

Passing swiftly from Rhapsody to
negro folk song through the entire
gamut of song and orchestration in
all of it's phases, the New YORK
Syncopated Orchestra last night ap-
peared before an almost full house
at the Orpheum. Pity it was that
not every seat was filled for the en-
tertainment was in every respect one
to command the attention of every :
one. The name of the organization
may have mislead a bit, for it savors
of the Jazz" variety, but truth to
tell the program was high class.
Under the leadership of VIII Ma
rion Cook, a well-known composer
about fifty negro musicians and vo-
calists have been assembled. We
have not said enough to the real
musical merit of the south, and to
bring its qualities to the fore is one
of the objects of the leader. And he
does 1t, for with the orchestra ana
vocalists his hearers learn of many
new beauties which have hitherto
gone unnoticed.
Quartets, solos, ensembles all done
with remarkable finish and technique
ELECTED hearty applause. And when
Frank Withers played his "Blues" as
a trombone solo the house just
couldn't keep their feet still And
then the n-Americano orchestra
tion game on and performers and au-
dience too, just swayed from side to
side in rythm to the tune of lively,
catchy Jazz" Everything that was
claimed for the orchestra was true,
and more. Pity was as noted before
that not every seat was filled.
