City Must Soon Plan for Pure Water
supply.

AZ the regular weekly meeting OF
the kootenai Valley Commercial club
held Monday night. E. e. Saunders.
! chairman Of the municipal swimming
pool committee, reported that his
committee had tentative plans for
giving benefit dances for the swim
ming pool fund and that several or
ganizations of Bonners Ferry had
plans under way for raising money
for the swimming pool
Upon the motion of Mr.. Saunders.
the president of the commercial club
was empowered 10 request all the
lodges, civic and social organizations
OF the city TO name a representative
TO serve on committee which is to
take over the responsibility of secur-
ing funds for the proposed swimming
pool. With such committee in
charge of the project plans may be
arranged for each organization to per-
tect schemes for raising money and
there Will be no danger of conflict
ing plans. Sixteen organizations of
the city will be asked to name a mem
ber to act on the committee and when
these representatives have been named
the committee will meet at the cali or
Mr.. Saunders, who is the representa-
tive of the commercial club, organize
and decide upon future action, inves-
tigate proposed sites for the pool and
secure estimates of costs.
Secretary ID. NJ Palmer announced
that for several weeks past he has
been receiving number of letters
nearly every day from prospective set
tiers who asked for information re-
garding Boundary county.
The members of the publicity com
mittee were requested to secure de-
signs and estimates at once for dis
play cases to be constructed near the
Great Northern and Spokane Interna
tional railway stations. The permis.
sion to erect these display cases has
been granted by officers of both rail
ways. The tentative plan of the com
mercial club members is to have struc-
lures large enough to hold exhibits of
grains and grasses, fruits, vegetables,
and minerals of Boundary county
pr e. E. Fry told of the plans of
increasing the scope of the Boundary
Bonner county Boy Scout council and
stated that the citizens of Troy and
Libby were Joining with Bonners Fer
ry and Standpoint IN the movement.
Dr. Fry also spoke of the problem
which now faces the city in regard to
its water supply. A recent analysis
of the city water by the state bacteri-
ologist showed it to be contaminated
and the town officials pmn to make
every effort to find the source of the
contamination. DR. Fry said that al
Troy water for drinking purposes is
being pumped from wells and that
this water has been proven pure by
all tests so far. He stated that il is
quite possible that Bonners Ferry will
/ have to get its water supply from wells
or else pipe in water from one of the
nearest mountain streams He ex-
planned that it might be possible to Sc
cure sufficient pure water from Snow
creek or some other mountain stream
at a cost Of around 100000. This
would be the cheapest and most sat
isfactory plan in the long run, he said
