Three months went by before
Nancy saw Lou again.
At twilight one evening the
shOp-girl was hUrrying home
along the border of a little quiet
park. She heard her name called
and wheeled about in time to
catch Lou rushing into her arms.
After the first embrace they
drew their heads back as serpents
do. ready to attack or TO charm,
with a thousand questions trem-
bling on their swift tongues. And
then Nancy noticed that prosperity
had descended upon Lou, mani

loudly and anectionately. Il see
you are still working in that store,

And then Lou looked. and saw

HEALTH0FFICE
PAY ''T0O LOW
DR.. Fowler Asks Increase,
Particularly for the Cler-
ical Forces.
JOBS HARD TO FILL
Estimates Refer to Difficulty

ployes at Scale.
JOBS HARD TO FILL

Increased pay for employees of the
health department. especially the
clerical force, has been asked in the
estimates of DR.. william C. Fowler.
District health officer, now before
the commissioners.
The health departments force has
been reduced from time to time be-
cause of the low pay. designations
of skilled workers have made gaps
in the departments personnel, which
are hard to fill on account of the
small salaries.
Jobs Hard to Fill.
At the present there are four va.
cancies in the department, two in
spectors positions and two clerical.
Considering that the positions pay
an average of $1,000 a year and
that each class requires special
training and technical knowledge.
the Importance of the loss and the
difficulty of filling the jobs are
easily seen.
The top salary in the depa rtment's
clerical force is $500 a year. This
appropriation is for one clerk only.
Other salaries range downward to
$72O, exclusive of the S240 annual
bonus.
Slight Changes In Pay.
Only slight changes have been
made in the pay scale during the
past eight years, and District off,
cials are aware that health depart
ment pay is far out OF proportion to
the cost of living.

Highway Dragged

Our township board set the
big tractor and drag to work
last week on the state highways
and the dragging. from Bruns-
wick township line tu the eash
line of this township was q
fine job. 1t is wonderful how
much the dragging improved
road conditions. Under the
management of Mills and knight
the big tractor force, both know
ing what to do and how to do it,
our roads will be kept in good
shape until spring by dragging.

tiles have begun to lock closer
after their roads and if all in
Brunswick township would give
as much attention to keeping
roads in shape as VIM Kuhler,
the east and west highway
would always be coed. Knight

to the north and south highway
Saturday and put that in as good
shape as they did the one east
and west. Stay with them,
