in advance. The clear water
well was the next improvement
planned by Wiley and Wilson,
Inc, consulting engineers. The
Standplpe, or storage tank, was
scheduled next. Now both are a
reality.
Good Foundation
Work on the foundation for the
storage tank got underway this
week as workmen for j. H.

gan digging the foundation. I'm
fortunately Wick hit a sandy
stone base, which is requiring
the use of an air compressor
drill to dig the hole. This is bad
for the contractor, but Bloom
field said, 1--WE are going to
have an excellent foundation.
The timetable for construction
is for Wick to get his concrete
foundation in before bad weather
sets in. Then the steel tank can
go ahead. The connecting 12-
inch mains have arrived also
and they will be laid as soon
as possible by Wick.
The concrete 100000 gallon
clear water well will be con-
structed underground adjacent
to the water plant next. This
contract also went to Wick,
whose low bid on this phase of
the work, was $1,000 under his
nearest competitor and over a
thousand dollars less than the
budgeted figure of $3O,872.
Bloomfield said the storage
tank would be completed and
filled with a million gallons of
water, before switching over to

Next Step?

Bloomfield said it would be to
increase the capacity of the
water plant itself. He fastened
to assure that the capacity of
the water plant is fully sufficient
to take care of the towns needs
for a number of years, but
anticipating increased growth,
the capacity will have to be in
creased.
The plant now has the ca
pacity Of producing a million
gallons daily. The consumption

increased consumption without

There just aren't enough mir
rors in most homes, profess
sional decorators assert.
For a three-bedroom house
or apartment, the average is
three mirrors when it should be
a minimum Of six or more, the
interior designer says.
The typical mirror, adds
Mary Ann Willis, decorating
consultant to Burwood Products
Co., is not of plate glass quality.
Instead of being made of plate
glass, it's made of inexpensive
window glass and may give a
distorted image" she points
out.
$50 if your children can't
seem to dress neatly, or if
you have trouble putting on
makeup, it's probably your
mirrors that are at fault"
she said.
Checking Aids
"a dresser mirror. plus a
full-length mirror in the
master bedroom, a large mir
ror in each of the other bed
rooms, plus a decorative hall
mirror near the front door
will give you the aids you
need to check yourself when
you dress and before you
leave the house." Miss Willis
says.
The plate glass mirror is at
least "a inch thick and
carefully polished on both
sides to remove all waviness'
and other imperfections. The
glass is then coated with
silver, copper and a protec-
tive layer of paint.
Window glass mirrors are
generally drawn and dried
without any polishing and
are usually about 3/16 inch
thick and are less durable
than plate. Many, however,
are adequate for good view
ing.
