DRAIN SYSTEM
FOR CITY MAY
Be LAID OUT
Complaints Against Children Using
North Park for Playground Are
Taken Up Again.
Especial to The Argus.)

Aledo, Oct 4.-The problem of an
adequate drainage system for Aledo
was the principal topic of discus
sion at last nights meeting of the
city council. Steps toward building
up the present drainage facilities in
Aledo were authorized The street
committee was instructed to secure
data concerning the costs for re-
placing 12-inch tile on North Ma
pie street, thus giving the drain on
that street a larger capacity. 1t is
thought probable that drainage
system for the entire city will be
laid if the investigations of the
street committee prove satisfac-
tory.
In speaking of the drainage
question, Mayor w. X. Wells said:
Il would not be lin favor of spend
ing much money on repairs for the
present system of drainage. There
is really no system and if we are
going to provide the city with an
adequate system of drains. we
might as well do it with as great a
saving as possible. Any repairs or
requirements made at this time
should be only temporary, but if
they can be used in the new sys-
tenn which we hope to have, they
will be alright"
Alderman Winders brought up
the question of letting the school
children who attend classes in the
old conservatory, use North park
for a playground. The park is I'M
der the direction of the board of
supervisors and it is alleged that
the school board. despite requests,
have never secured permission
from the supervisors to use the
park as a playground. As the park
is leased by the city from the coun-
ty, and the lease expires in 1925,
the council fears that if the park is
to be put to use as playground,
that the county may object to re-
new the lease. The school board
will be requested to obtain permits
sion from the county board to con-
Gnue using the park as a play
ground If this permission is not
secured the council will instruct
the school board to remove all
playground apparatus which the
children now enjoy, from the
grounds. AS the children have no
ether place to play during recess,
this action would deprive them of
a playground.
