amended into the water charter
the voters of the city have not
been extinguished of their right Of
direction
The councilmen were certain
that the city charter gave them
the authority to install meters,
make rates and establish rules to
govern at their discretion, as it was
a public law that required no refer
endum at the annual city meeting.
Mayor Lindsay, however, de-
Sclares, "Therefol@ in view Of am
Equities and complexities affecting
the twin methods of operating and
managing the water department,
would recommend to the Aldermen
sitting as a part of the City Coun-
cil-that no action be taken in de
fiance of Section 7 of the water
charter or of rule 8 of the Regu-
lations of 1912. That in the event
of redrafting a code of rules, rates,
and regulations to govern the use
and service of the city water sys-
ten!-that they be submitted to the
citizen voters for ratification and
confirmation prior TO adoption"
+. c. Williams presented infor-
nation regarding the request Of
". H. Curtis to build a house on
his property between the road and
the bay near the Curtis corner.
No action was taken in the matter
until the city lines are established.
John ROGUE asked to purchase
a piece of swamp land belonging
to the city, near the city barn Just

On a motion by Alderman Prouty

The city will pay one half the
cost of a AZ inch mesh fence top

divided equally.
Al last nights meeting Supt.
Bailey received instructions for the
use of the city truck in drawing
gravel. The teams will begin draw

The last and perhaps most i'm

light by the scores of children was
The order to set apart, ten streets

Supt Bailey was instructed to
al'aGge to set aside Prospect street

easily distinguished by motorists

This is a regulation which viii

and enjoyable means OF sport for

Winter Prices of Milk

market through price cutting by
dealers in anticipation of a de
crease by the Association, than to
any real need for a decrease. In
the opinion of the Sales Commit
tee this winter price cutting war
fare between the dealers can be
largely forestalled by making a
price for a four months period, al
ways leaving the dealers an OPP
portunity to ask for a reconsider

of each month in case unexpected
conditions arise.
In addition to the price for mar

sold Glass 2 milk of its members,
the milk not used for fluid pur-
poses, at its butterfat value plus
- cents per hundredweight. This

ally higher price for their Class ,
