Both the Great Northern and Tum-
water electric power plants and the
city water plant have been troubled
by sediment stopping up the intakes
to fumes. Mr.. Schneider says that
the crew of the Great Northern pow
er plant had to get out Monday night
and wade water to clear their intake.
and the Tumwater plant has been
bothered time and again. Sediment
has come into the city water mains
and is causing much impotence by
clogged pipes and taps.
The merchants of the city have
some very enticing window displays
in fact always debut now at the APP
proach of the holiday season they are
especially attractive-and within are
to be found everything that any COM
munity may need in the way of holi-
day goods, foods, clothing, ornaments
and toys. And it goes without saying
that on the average everything is
cheaper here than in large city.
Therefore, shop early and do it at
home where your money may in the
course of human events come back to
you in the way of community i'm
provement or otherwise. Money sent
away is so much lost to your com
munity and so much gained by some
other-do not forget that.
