material used in the construction OF
the enlarged building, although large
quantities of the y aterial will be at
the same time have 20 be brought in.
The post office organization moved
out of the old structure several weeks
ago, and Is now housed in temporary
quarters on East Montgomery street.
1t is anticipated that the enlargement
and remodeling of the post office
building will require some nine or ten
months, and that it can be occupied
again by midsummer in 1887.

Highland Home Realty Company
has never sued the City of Henderson
in any matter connected with the
sewer disposal plant or for anything
else.
In 1929, Mrs. Geneva Johnson, who
at that time owned the land now own
ed ty Highland Home Realty Com
pany, brought or threatened to bring
an action against the city because of
the unbearable condition of this dis
posal plant and claimed certain dam
ages up to that date.
The city admitted the unsatisfac-
tory condition of the disposal plant
and paid Mrs. Johnson $500 for dam
ages through the year 1890. Highland
Home Realty Company was not a
party to the action nor to the settle
ment, beyond the fact that the city's
check was made payable to w. H.
Johnson, Geneva Johnson, and High
land Home Realty Company because
the company held an $4,000 mortgage
on the land in question and legal set
tlement could not be made without
consent of the mortgage.
At the time of this settlement, the
city and the Johnsons entered into an
agreement, the final clause of which
is as follows:
"It is further understood, that this
settlement is for the past and present
damages to the plaintiffs property,
including it's operation on present
basis for 1929 and 1880, inclusive, in
full settlement of all claims and de-
mands complained of by plaintiffs.
And the plaintiffs, while not enter
tanning any thought of further litiga-
ton, especially reserve for themsel-
YES, and their heirs and assigns, all
the rights which may hereafter ac-
crue to them, should the City of Hen
derson cause or permit a nuisance to
arise out of the future operation or
condition of the said disposal plant"
The company was not a party to
the above agreement, but as mort
gagee consented to it.
Earlier in this summer the COM
pany gave the city written notice Of
the offensive, unsanitary and un-
healthy condition of this disposal
plant and requested it to remedy
these conditions. The city did not
even condescend to answer the COM
panys letter.
The principal allegations of the
complaint, including the prayers for
judgment, are that the disposal plant
demanding that this nuisance be
abated, and for damages to plaintiffs
property up to the present time.

by the layers at the edge. Some
of these stitched tulle hats are
made in so many layers that they
resemble sports fabric. although

of tulle are particularly delightful

now and while you can enjoy
this in your back yard, if you
are fortunate to have one, it is
most pleasant to combine it
with a little outing. So pack
your dinner in the car and be
off to one of the pleasant
spots near Washington.
The suggestion for today is
Burnt Mills, Md, along the reSer-
voir of the Suburban Sanitary
Commission. Here are tables and
benches and a small picnic
grounds. An abundant supply of
safe drinking water is available.
The spot is restful and the re-
Election of the sunset in the waters
of the reservoir is very lovely.
U. S. route 20 through Silver
Spring and Four Corners takes
you to Burnt Mills. The distance
is only II miles from Washington.
Our picnic lunch is planned so
that the labor involved in its
preparation is minimized. and no
additional preparation is needed
after you arrive at the picnic
grounds.
Little insulated bags have been
covered at a downtown
store for keeping bottles of bever-
ages cold as long as four hours.
