ST.
IS MUDDY HOLE
Residents Shut Off From
Traffic Often, TO Fight
For Betterments
TALK CONDITIONS
AT MEETING TONIGHT

To consider wretched street condi-
tions in the section OF the city lust
east Of Eleventh street bridge. resi-
dents there will hold a meeting this
evening in Scarbors' Hall, Thirteenth
and Heald streets A similar meet
ing was held last Monday night
when temporary organization OF the
Civics Association OF the Ninth ward
was effected. Permanent oreaniza-
fion likely win be made tonight.
The subject for consideration this
evening will be the condition Of
Thatcher street, from Eleventh
street to Vandever avenue. Resi-
dents say that temporary paving has
been promised for this street. which
is now in such horribly muddy con-
diuon that any vehicle which tries
to pass over It mires up to the hubs.
The residents are urging that this
street should be paved with some
permanent, approved surface.
This street serves at least fifty
houses between Eleventh and Van
dever avenue. in addition to three
grocery stores, a dry goods store.
charcoal and coal dealers, the plant
OF the Musselman Concrete Building
Blox Company and IL is the only
means OF getting to the plant of the
Bond Manufacturing Company on
Fourteenth street, between Thatcher
street and the creek. The city paw
ing plant also is located on this
street The street is in such miser-
able condition now that any Of the
residents who own automobiles have
to walk at least three blocks from
their homes before they can get In
their automobiles as they wuold not
dare to drive into the mire.
Added to these Inconvenience
there are lots adjoining Thatcher
street on which the city dumps ref
use. The odor from this burning
mess is so bad that the residents
cannot keep their windows open AT
nights, they assert In the summer
when the city paving plant is run
ming. so much fine dust is thrown
into the air that 1t is impossible to
keep the windows open.
When any OF the people living on
/ the street want coal delivered they
must give the dealers definite infor-
nation as to the then condition OF
the street. In wet and muddy
weather they cannot get coal at all
and in the dryer weather the coal
dealers are often compelled to send
wagons with three or four horses to
drag the wagon through the mire
Similar conditions exist as TO deliv-
cry OF groceries and other family
necessities. the residents say.
Petitions for the paving OF tn,
street have been signed by a major.
ity of residents as far back as three
years ago but to date have accom-
plished no good.
The residents urge that II Thatche

with a little gray matter, close atten-

II have spent as much or more eff

He told of an experience of his in
Oklahoma in 1919. when he was visit

wheat crop had just been threshed
and Mr.. Blair's brother asked his ad-
vice in regard to shipping direct. The
result was that Mr.. Blair took a car
load to Minneapolis and received ~
cents over the local Oklahoma prices
netting an additional $500 profit on
the carload.

slow in going into the marketing
game, but are now giving the pooling
