Meeting called to order by Mayor

meeting dispensed with.
A contract, or agreement, with H.
0. Rice having been entered into for
the drilling and testing for water
supply, and said agreement having
been duly signed by the city water
committee, it is placed on file.
Resolution.
Whereas, the county board of Iron
County, Wisconsin, at an adjourned
annual meeting thereof held on the
8rd day of December, 1923, at the
county seat of said county, did
determine and assess the relative
value Of all taxable property in each
town, city, and village in said coun-
ty, and did set down in a list of said
towns, cities and villages, opposite
the name Of each, the value thereof
so determined by them, which said
list so prepared by them was certifi-
ed by the chairman and clerk of said
board as the county assessment made
by said board, according to the pro-
visions Of section 7016 of the Wis
cOnsin Statutes; And
Whereas, the said list of towns,
,ties and villages, with the value of
each set opposite each name, pur-
ports to represent the full value of
all taxable property in said towns,
cities and villages, respectively, for
the year 1928, when in fact the
values SO set opposite the names of
said towns, cities and villages do not
represent the full value thereof
respectively, in the judgment of the
mayor and common council of the
city Of Hurley, one of the taxing
districts IN said Iron County. And
Whereas, it seems proper to have
sad values so fixed by said county
board of Iron County, reviewed by
the Tax Commission of Wisconsin.
therefore, be it Resolved, by the
common council and mayor of the
cty Of Hurley, one of the duly
organized cities of Wisconsin, locat-
ed IN said Iron County, duly as

whenever the bride wishes. 1t is Gus
tomary, however, for a girl not to an

more than five or six months before
the wedding. Frequently she does
not make the formal announcement
until about a month before the we'd

If you mean wedding invitations,
instead of announcements. they should
go out at least three weeks before the
marriage date.

engagement announcements in the

announce their engagements first to
