A committee of the association re-
ported that a drive initiated at the
last meeting to secure better lighting
for streets and alleys of the community
had met with success: that lights have
been and are being installed in many
sections of the community.
The association passed resolutions to
renew its fights for permanent
graded school building to take the place
of the portables, which are being used
at present, and a fire engine house for
the community. The nearest of the
latter, it was said. is located in Bright
wood approximately 20 blocks from the
Heights section.
