Williamsburg
to Get Water
from Coal Creek

FLORENCE. Sept. For several
years, Ex-Mayor Joseph John and .
group of progressive spirits in VIII
iiamsburg have been trying to secure
water for the residents who live on
the hill in that town. At one time
the town was ready to build water
works of their own, but lost a lot of
their ready cash in the Florence State
Bank, which eventually forced them
to give up that project.
Later the question of securing water
from Coal Creek was agitated. but for
long time that met with much oppo-
sition.
However. the town of Williamsburg
iater secured the support OF John r.
Roberts of the Coa- Creek Water and
Light Company. and finally plans and
terms were agreed upon. The pipe
line Is now in connection with the
Coal Creek water line. A supply basin
has been placed on the hill which will
given them water for weeks supply
and now the awful expense OF hauling
water from Chandler creek is done
away with, and this group Of the res.
idents furnished with a supply OF good
water
The people on the hill, numbering
20 families. are supplied by the Coal
Creek Water and Light Company,
while the people along the blum are
supplied by extension pipes running
direct from the Rockvale water works.

2 Men AT Flying Field
Barely Escape Casing

1t became known today that two
privates of the Supply detachment at
Souther Field narrowly escaped be-

rine gas escaping from chlorine
gas container.
This container was in the post
supply warehouse and it was discov-
cred that it was leaking quite badly
and was therefore set outside. A
large amount of gas collected, and
two men attempted to remove the
container without equipping them
selves with gas masks. These men
inhaled enough of the gas to make
themselves quite sick The container
was finally removed to a remote point
on the field by two additional men
who wisely equipped themselves with
gas masks before attempting the
work.
