for Yesterday; Eyes on Tomorrow

PETERSBURG. April 3o.-In cele-

Church. Rev. DR.. James NJ Mcclure
preached special sermon to tho
members of his congregation yester-

given me a reed like a rod, saying,
rise and measure the temple OF God,
and the altar. and them that worship
therein"

the railway company and City Coun-
Gil as to tho future use OF the track
less trolley. The Council Is consid-
ering proposed amendment to the
franchise of the Virginia Railway and
Power Company, which would permit
the running OF trackless trolleys.
Sewer Program Items.
Tho sewer program contains first
an item Of $4,000 for trunk sewer
to carry the Lieutenant Run trunk
sewer across the harbor and Poca-
hontas Island into tho north or di-
version channel of the river. AS
there Is now no current In the tidal
harbor, this improvement Is abso-
futely necessary.
Another important Improvement is
the enlargement of the clerks Office,
which Is necessary to care for the
land records of the city and to pro-
vide room for the constantly increas-
ing files and books.
The Council. In outlining such an
extensive program, believes that 1t
Will be ono OF the biggest things in
the history Of Petersburg. 1t will
give employment to hundreds of per-
sons and will be undertaken when
tho city can borrow money at the
lowest rate of interest.
The Council has studied tho pro-
gram closely for many months, but
IT was not made known until today
suggestions have been solicited from
leading citizens. who spoke most ia
Vorabiy In favor OF the movement.
