What goes on here? Yes,
we've been asked the foregoing
several times lately. A month
ago The Leader carried a big
head line to the effect "relay-
ing of East Main street paving
would start within ten days."
Two weeks ago we were assured
that everything was in readi-
mes, and work would start with
in seven days. The weather man
would have been kind to work
ers too. The pay checks might
have made a merry Christmas
for a number of laborers. But
now we know why. Everything
was ready to go-specifications
had been sent to WPA headquar-
ters at Columbus, where a few
changes were requested. These
changes have now been made,
and the city is now awaiting fin
al approval.

Gently asks what is meant by it.
There is a certain lady out in
East Newark who asked my wife
about it. She thought it was a
box in which the editor stuffed
all the complaints from subscrib-
ers and advertisers when errors
were made. Come to think of it,
it might be a good idea to have
a box for that purpose, and we
believe the name would be ap-
propriate. Seriously folks - a

Mike Desmond, Columbus Citi-

Newark last week. Mr.. Des-
mond, because of his keen analy-
tical roundup of Ohio political
leanings preceding the last cleo
tion when he forecast the cleo
tion of Roosevelt, and his uncan-
ny representations regarding
the outcome of other political
contests, enjoys a steadily grow
ing reputation as a writer whose
analyses must be taken serious
ly. He also has the ability to
weave human interest stories out
of the happenings in the lives of
the "run of mine" people. A col
umnist rises or falls on his abili-
ty to understand the common in
dividual. To do that he must be
one of them. Mike is all of that.

Too many Americans leave
their good manners behind when
they go outside their homes and
offices.
In a department store
A smartly dressed woman i'm
patiently grabs the arm of a hat
less paSser-by.
Her tone says, I'm somebody;
you're practically nobody. I ex-
pect more attention than you give
other customers.
At the theatre
You are surprised by the num-
Der OF people who seem to think
it's smart to arrive after the pro-
gram has started. (Some promi-
nent socialites recently made
such a habit of this that their
friends no longer include them in
theatre parties)
You find man at home who is
eager to seat guests, prompt at
opening doors and otherwise con-
siderate of the comfort of others.
Then you see the same man get
ting on a bus or passing through
a revolving door He pushes and
shoves and his just reward would
be a chance meeting at such a
place with his boss or his wife.

Its the stars of stage and screen
who match bright hues of nail

But everyone will agree that
the average woman needs week

beauty.
Almost everyone Is aware Of
the Importance OF keeping nails
free of ridges. spots and brittle
ness and even the doctors say
nails reflect your health.
The weekly manicure should go
ike this: Removal of oil nail pol

sOapy water and scrubbing them
with a soft brush. Then use cuti-
Gle remover. oil or paste and dry
each finger separately before put

To provide proper sanitation
for homes not available to sewers
the State Board of Health, in
conjunction with the WPA is
operating a countrywide Com
munity Sanitation project for the
construction and installation of
sanitary toilets. The work is un-
der the direction of z. D. Harri-
son, county sanitary officer.
Under the plan of operation
for the project, modern. sanitary
pit toilets of U. S. Public Health
Service approved design will be
furnished homes. Those wishing
the new privieS are required to
pay only for the materials used.
The WPA project provides all
labor, including construction of
the building, excavation of the
pit, installing the new toilet. and
dismantling of the old building.
The price for a complete toilet,
installed in the city is S16.5O.
For homes the project pro-
vides one standard type of pit
toilet, sturdy, portable frame
structure which fastens to angle
irons set into a cast concrete
floor with integrally-cast seat
riser, rests atop One-piece con-
crete sill which seals the top of
the wOod-lined pit The scien-
tifically devised vent, with open
ings in the side and back, are pro-
tected by copper screening and
hardware cloth. Ventilation IS
provided by long, carefully-de-
The Key West citizen., 1940-10-11

signed openings under the caves.
The roof, after careful expert
mentation had proved it best
from all standpoints, is of cor
rugated metal The roof has
wide overhang to prevent rain
from washing the carefully
banked mound around the con-
crete sill.
The community sanitation
project will mean a great saving
to those who desire to sanitate
their property" states Mr.. Harri-
son. I'm fact, it will cut the cost
of the toilet by approximately
one half, since all of the labor IS
furnished free to the property
owner. All one has to do is to
pay the material bill and the WPA
crew will install the privy We
hope eventually to completely
sanitate the city, thus enabling
us to control fly borne diseases
such as. typhoid, dysentery and
enteritiS.
Since the beginning of the pro-
gram there have been approx
mately ITO installations in the
city, Harrison stated. There are
still many residents in need of
these new toilets, to replace old
devices. All property owners
have been urged to place their
order with the County Health de-
partment in order to take ad-
vantage of the free WPA labor
while it is available.
