COMMISSIONERS MEETING

The Tuesday afternoon Commits
sioners' meeting was brief. The
Christmas spirit of enjoyment must
have settled too heavily on the Office
holders of the city for them to cast it
off in such a short time, for little bust
ness was transacted. Possibly the
blame for this a be laid to the fact
that there was but little to transact.
The tax collectors report showed
collections totaling $3,595.93. But one
arrest was credited on the police re-
port. Three resolutions were adopted
at the meeting. The first of these au-
thorized the making of a 1922 Water
Anticipation Promissory Note. The
second provided for the borrowing OF
$4,000 in anticipation of taxes, and
the third dealt with a transferring OF
accounts. Before closing the Mayor
informed those present that there was
no intention in the minds of the Of
ficials as to the tearing up of the ole
third ward boardwalk until such time
when this can be done in the proper
manner, that is, moving it out ant
putting it on a line with the present
walk.
