DIR. j. p. Edwards and he has GER
talnly worked hard for Alpha. The
office OF treasurer is held by Otto
Carlson who is serving his second
term and has given no inclination
OF his intentions for the future.
The office of assessor is not very
renumerative one. Faul Andersen
has discharged the duties Of that Of
fee for couple OF years In an ad-
mlrable manner.
The trustees whose term OF Office
expires are Henry Veeser. who was
chosen 10 take the vacancy caused by
L. V. Johnson retiring, Andrew Rys-

PUMP AT WORK

~head the Ads
PUMP AT WORK
The village pump is working again
and according TO reports 1t is work
ing very nicely. The pump was
welded by Ben Dustin and Otto Gund-
strom at Crystal Falls last week. Two
OF the most important parts OF the
pump needed welding. the crank shaft
and the frame.
While the pump was being welded
Pat Raher was set at work overhaul
ing and grinding the valves and new
parts were ordered to take the place
OF the worn parts.
I'm order TO take away the strain
from the frame Mr.. Raher devised
reinforcing frame Of iron bars and
cap piece that ought to take consider
able OF the shock from the frame
piece.
The welding job was guaranteed
/ by Mr.. Dustin but he freely states
that he isn't positive that the parts
will not break again. He feels GER
tain that they will not break at the
Yields.
The council decided TO have the
machine repaired because OF the
heavy expense new pump would
cost. A pump alone win cost $1,000
and the motor thousand, 30 that the
village would have TO spend $1,000 at
least TO supply a machine in place OF
the present one unless they decided
TO buy new pieces at a cost OF about
$500. In the latter case they would
have the same kind of a machine
that they have with the welded one.
The members figure that II the ma
chine will last a year, prices OF
pumps will then be down where they
ought to be and new one can be had
for half the price OF a new one today.
