nous letters recently from four men in
Peeksklll criticizing me for my attitude
toward il. These writer's said they were
Masons and Klansmen.
They couldn't have been good Masons

too cowardly TO sign his name to 1t. !

City's Cucumber Water
To Be Cleared of Bugs

THE synura. micro0rganism
which makes water taste
= like cucumbers, and which
tainted the water supply of the
whole city for several weeks last
winter. is again present in the
water mains leading from the Cats
kills. Officials of the Department
of Water Supply, however. said
that he is not present in sufficient
numbers to cause any uneasiness,
and that the treatment now being
given the water with copper sui
phate should remove all traces OF
the bug within a few days.
The bug has been present in the
water throughout the summer. the
officials said, but not until a few
weeks ago was it found in large
enough numbers to change the
taste Of the water. Then employees
of the department began to notice
the cucumber taste in the water
that flowed from the taps in the
Municipal Building. and the de-
partment's engineers began an
other fight against the bug. The
trouble has been reported from
several section of the city, but it
does not seem to be as widespread
as last year.
