SECOND Unit. NEEDED
At NEW CREMATORY
Hsalth Board May Find It Advis-
ahIo 10 Recommend Build
inr Of Additional Plant.

StNtiafics relative to the daily con.
sumption at the new incineratine
plant during the ten n-day test OF ths
creuAtory now in progress will not
be announced by the Board of Health
untii the test has been completed ane
the department Is ready to submit its
report and such recommendations as
the health officials may deem ences-
oary 70 City Council Howe
has been practically definitely es'
tnbnahed that the incinerator will moi
consume the amount Of garbage which
most of the city officials concerned
with ITS construction originally be-
li~ved IL would and as a consequence
there is now san apparently definite
underssa ndirg that a movement will
shortly be inaugurated looking TO the
erec ton OF second unit OF the same
type.
Whether this will be an addition tc
the new plant. at the foot of Madison
street or n complete new unit in some
other section OF the city, preferably in
the Ninth ward, is matter yet to
BE- determined. A second incinerating
plant. and. possibly a third to prepare
the city for all future needs, how
ever. SeeuW 10 DC ASsuftd
IL is claimed an additional unit at
the foot OF Madison street could be
operated with less overhead cost than
. new unit in some other section be-
cause both units together could he
run with smaller working force than
would be required with two separate
and distinct plants. 1t is also pointed
out that the city owns no land in the
Ninth ward on which such a plant
could be located and site would have
to Be purchased. which would mean
the outlay of additional cash. With
motor trucks in use ii is said there
. har.l3y a run IN the city of more than
twenty minutes.
II Is thought possible that the health
board officials will make n recon-
ncndation TO Council for the building
oS second unit in their report on
the performance of the present in
einerator, although none of the Of
fc.als were prepared to state definitely
today mat this would be done.
The Board of Health today submit
ted TO the Street and Sewer Depart
ment a written request that arrange

or Pierson informed the directors that
the delivery of the street waste is AL

b. chained the city is saved probably
$500 or more a month in the cost OF
cal At this rate those who have been
strhing the progress OF the new plant
contend it would soon pay for itself
and another unit in addition. Very
little coal is used in the furnaces when
paper and other waste is burned by
the patented method in use at the
rhnt as this material makes a fire
hot enough to consume completely all
the garbage thrown into the fire

The Wronn Number.

Mrs. New Auto owner, all excited,
called her husband over the telephone
at his office, and announced: 1.-THE
auto tags came by mail, but we will
have to send them back. They sent
the wrong number" Business of con-
siderable questioning from the bust
ness office end of the telephone.
Then: "Well, they're not the same
numbers we had last year, SO I
thought they had made mistake"
Explanatory: The machine had come
into possession of the family late in
the year, license number was OBJ
tanned that had six figures and the
husband got in early for 1921 Ii
cense hoping to obtain a smaller num-
Der and he got it.
Anyway, the wife had a good laugh
at her own expense when the hus-
band arrived home that evening. And
she is learning something each day
about autos.
