ed to the price of the admission,
for the public to pay" Discussion
on the passing of the tax will be
decided at the next meeting
when the third reading of the or
dinance will be heard.
Solicitor William Hopes re-
ported that he had received a let
ter from the smoke abatement
officer in Columbus saying that
they would not be able to send
a smoke expert here because of
lack of workers. He has written
to firm in Cincinnati, however,
and is waiting to get reply from
them.
The caretaker of the city dump,
was present at the meeting to
tell of several complaints he has
received about smoke and smudge
from the burning of rubbish at
the dump. Since, however, there
is no other way to get rid of this
rubbish, the Solons decided to
continue burning and hope for
change of wind.
Again this year, as every year,
the problem of persons burning
leaves on the village streets has
arisen. This is a violation to g
village ordinance and the Council
is asking that it be stopped.
The third and final reading was
held on the dedication of the
Yarrington-Davis addition to
Marysville, it was accepted as an
addition to the village.
Bills in the sum of $763.84
were read and approved. The
highest of these was $224,40 for
the village payroll.
