COUNCIL REDUCES
WATER DISCOUNTS
Move Is For Creating Fund
To Replace Water Lines
When and Where Needed

At its meeting of Dec. 20 the
Laurel city council received author
ity by letter from the state board
of railroad commissioners in Hell
ena to change the city's rates on
water bill discounts, as had been
previously requested. Before the
board gave its permission a public
hearing had been held here to
investigate the proposal and to
hear complaints, if any. The
change, which reduces the discount
for payment before the tenth of
the month, is intended to create
a fund for replacing water lines
in the distribution system when
and where needed. Heretofore the
costs of requirements have been
borne by property owners adjacent
to the water mains involved. The
councils thinking, when it petition
ed the state board for permission
to reduce the discount rate, was
that upkeep and replacement
should be distributed among all
water customers. The legal ma
chinery for making the change was
set in motion during the past sum-
mer.
After receiving the letter of
authority from the state board,
the council decreed that payments
on water line requirements be re-
funded from the fund into which
the money was originally placed at
time of payment. The water COM
mittee and finance committee were
instructed to draw up a suitable
program to create a fund for re-
placement of mains in the future.
Both measures, presented and
passed as motions, were local gov
eminent details.
The council decided that it
should have an inventory of all
city owned supplies, tools and
equipment and authorized by mo-
ton that this be taken. 1t also
provided for the keeping of a
stock record.
The Yellowstone bank of Laurel
asked by letter for the release
of $1,000 held by the city as
collateral. The request was grant
ed, subject to approval by the city
attorney, B. l.. Price.
John Adams applied for and re-
permission to build a IA
Dy 22-foot frame garage on lot
Is, block 1, Park subdivision, at
IN approximate cost of SIS.
The city clerk, Miss Title Hob
sndorf, was instructed to advertise
bids for a heating unit for the
library, either of circulat-
ng hot water or hot air. The
leating unit is needed because of
major addition of floor and book
pace that is being made at the
library. Work on the addition was
late the past summer. d;

But few attain it as literally as out

chased r fly ball so vigorously that
the friction of his pants ignited
some matches in his pocket. The
matches touched off a pocketfull of

Statistics show that very few

what happened on the hot
