Reservoir Is lOW
Council Advised

The water in the City's reservoir
is dropping rapidly, it was learned
at the Council meeting Monday
night. Consumption is estimated at
the rate of 1000 gallons day.
There is no need for alarm, ac-
cording to city officials, but the
water supply here is not adequate
for wasteful practices such as rum
ming faucets to keep systems from
freezing.
Other business brought, up at
the meeting included authorization
for removal of two meters in front
of the Belmont and one at Wod-
fingers Drug Store. This is to al
low room for traffic at interSec-
tions. Cab license was authorized
for transfer from Homer Lightfoot
to Herbert and Harold Heglin. Bids
were requested on the 1856 city
fuel delivery.
APW has forwarded transfer
documents for sewer line units /,
2 and g. These documents are be-
ing studied by the Council before
they will be presented to thevoters.
An unusual request was made to
the Council. Clarence Fry sought
approval for digging his own
trench for a sewer line. The re-
quest was granted.
The council is seeking to decen-
tralize the Fire Department, by
the placement of a quonset hut
yet to be purchased, in another
section of the city, to house part
of the firefighting equipment.
Warrants are being sent out to
collect delinquent personal proper
ty taxes. according to City Clerk
Dick Berg.
Four more street lights have
been authorized. One in front of
the door of the new school, one at
Carolyn and north Brooklyn, one
at the City Dock warehouse and
one on top of ACS hill.
The sales tax question is still be-
ing studied, as is the wording of
the annexation proposal. It is plan
ned to hold an election on these
two issues at the same time, in the
near future.
Test holes are being dug at the
proposed site of the new airport,
it was learned.

Americas best business year. With
few exceptions across the country,
business in 1855 has set new re-

Sacks Wanted to
Assure Success
Of School Lawn

AS a protective covering for
grass seed that is to be planted in
area on the east and north side
of the new high school building,
Supt. Harry H. Cloke is in quest
of large quantities of spud and
grain sacks, in fact anything that
is of burlap material.
Those responding would be
donating, out Of an appreeia-
tion Of what their gift may do
towards helping to enh anee
the beauty Of the school
property. Svpt. cIoke pointed
out. Donations should be
made at once. he said, so
that seed planting could be
done Immediately.
The area to be seeded was pre-
pared for cultivation last fall with
large quantities of imported rich
soil being trucked there for an
ideal lawn base. A portion of
the area at that time was seeded,
the misfortune of a heavy wind
blowing the seed away after it
had been planted. With protec-
tive burlap used, obviously, the
project will not suffer a second
defeat.
Following substantial growth
OF the lawn, which should be at
tanned by the coming summer,
final stages of landscaping will
be done. These will include the
planting of carefully selected
trees and shrubbery.
With the Identification project
realized, friends and patrons of
Browning public schools will
have occasion to appreciate more
fully the enlarged educational
system and the fine efforts that
have been made by Supt. Cloke
since the beginning of his ad-
ministrative work several years
ago.
