Watch Water Meter
Warns City Official
Director of Public Works Hurtgen
Advises Kenoshans to Take Pre-
cautions to Protect Meters.

Peter J. Hurtgen, director of public
work of Kenosha, issued an appeal to
all patrons of the water department to
take precaution against allowing the
water meters to freeze, stating that a
little prevention would save expense
to the consumer and annoyance to the
department..
Twenty-six meters have been frozen
during the last four days, according
to Mr.. Hurtgen. In every instance
this has occurred either because cell
lar windows have been left open or
have, not been replaced when broken.
The cost for repairing them varies
from So to 81; in addition there is
much inconvenience to the consumer
by reason of being deprived of the
use of water during the time that the
meter is being repaired.
Mr.. Hurtgen declared that property
owners should see to it that cellar
windows are closed and repaired and
that there will be very few instances
of frozen meters if this is done. In
some cases the meter is located near
a cold wall and in such instances, ii
is advised, that burlap sack or an
old piece of carpet be used to pro.
tect it.
