CITY WATER SUPPLY ASSURED

The City Council will meet in spec
ial session this Thursday evening
to complete arrangements for new
well and pump which, when installer
will assure this city Of an ample sup.
ply Of water at all times.
The new well is to be located down
in the flat adjacent to Milt Pritchet's
sand pit formerly known as Fos-
ter's sand pitt A four-stage centrirl-
gal pump, with capacity OF from
five to six hundred gallons per minute,
will be used at the new we'll.
At present the Main street pump
is pumping about 200 gallons to the
minute and the lower pump about IS
gallons. The capacity of the reser-
voir is 100000 gallons. ne two pumps
are now pumping $4,000 gallons per
day, and are just about holding even
with the city's consumption of water.
The Board of Health has pronounc-
ed the water which will supply the
new we'll as even more pure, and some
what softer, than that from the pres
ent wells The new well will not be a
very deep affair, probably about ten
or twelve feet, the water coming up
through the sand into a silo-shaped
container.
The land and right of way has all
ready been contracted for with Mr..
Pritchett, and there remains only the
formalities with the state Heath
Commission to be gone through with
before the work can be started.

WOMEN ON SCHOOL BOARD

At the annual meeting of School
District No. /, River Falls, held in
the high school assembly room Mon
day evening, Mayor Geo. Theo. Smith
was reelected treasurer for term
of three years. The other members
of the board are Walter Sutherland,
clerk, and O. ]. Weberg secretary. /.
l. Lusk acted as chairman of the meet
ing, which was attended by about SIS
citizens.
A sentiment was expressed favor
ing the extension of the scho 81 board
to include five instead of the three
members, and that two of the five
should be women. The law requires
that to do this notice must be pub
lished ten days before the annual
meeting. 1t was therefore decided that
the change be made at the annual
meeting next year.
1t was also voted to install new
toilets in the high school building, in
compliance with the suggestion of the
Health Commission. This work will
be done this summer. Aside from the
toilet Accommodations the building was
found to be in excellent shape.
N. H. Mewalt has resigned as prin-
cipal of the local school to accept a

TRIES TO SAVE FRIEND;
BROWNS IN LAKE ST. CROIX

| G. Howard Augustin, editor of the
GlenNood City Tribune, and Ernest H
| Berg, bookeerer at the Ward Hard,
ware Cos office in Glenwood City
were both drowned in Lake st. Crois
at Bradley's Point, opposite Saltwater
last Sunday.
Berg had stepped off ledge into
deep water, and finding himself I'M
able to swim to safety, called for help
Augustin swan out to help him, but
the others desperate grasp took them
both TO the bottom.
Both young men were in service
during the World War. Berg was 26
wears old, and married. Augustin was
"a, and single.
The Journal editor was compan-
ion of Howard Argustin for nine
months in Co. '.D' 341st Infantry, and
for some time were together in the
Company office. After leaving Camp
Grant for overseas Howard became a
Sergeant Major of the 49th Infantry.
Upon his return to civil life he went
into partnership with his brother in
the publication of the Glenwood City
Tribune. 8
From our close association with
Howard we learned to think of him as
the finest character of our acquaint-
ance. Ones first impression of How
ard was of young man sound and
clean in mind and body, and as the
acquaintance grew this impression
was strengthened and his great vir-
tues appreciated. He was broad-mind-
ed; he understood life, but sought al
ways to give every character and
every situation it's brightest and most
helpful aspect. He had delicious
sense of humor, rather dry and droll,
but keen and always to the point. Ac-
auaintanceship with Howard meant a
better and more wholesome outlook
upon life, an outlook bereft of the pet
ty iealousies and other handicaps, and
those who knew him best realize more
fully the tragedy of his untimely
death. 1t was wholly in keeping with
the character of Howard Augustin
that his death should come in an he
roic attempt to save the life of a
friend.
Funeral services are to be held at
the home in ! Glenwood City this
(lhursday) afternoon. Interment is
to be made in New Richmond.
