Residents on the west aide of Corby street have petitioned for a sewer; those on the east side do not want a sewer for the reason that they are not financially able to go into the matter and also that they are able to get rid of their sewage by private drains leading to the slough. Those on the west side wish to pay for the construction of a sewer on one side of the street and connect with the Lincoln street sewer built some years ago and paid for by residents In that dis trict which does not include Corby street. This the cncU felt was not a fair proposition for the Lincoln street people and would be a bad policy -for future operations. Many plans were offered and rejected and the matter was left for further investi gation as to the cost of construc tion and approval by the state board of health. A proposal in writing by the American Legion for use of the ball park, the city to plough tlie ground five inches deep, level and roll same and lay a water pipe from the nearest city main to the grand stand, the Legion to repair fence and grand stand and put the ground In shape for games, was read and more discussion took place. The proposition seemed altogether too large for the council to finance I when the addition of a waterline was added and the opinion seemed to be that it would be better to al low the Legion a lump sum of money for the improvement to use as they desired. After some time it was decided that the council i could not afford to allow more than ' $50 for this purpose and Clyde Whitman who represented the Le gion was so informed, and a motion was made and carried to that effect. An objection was made by W. J. Wilson as to the location of power poles on Wilson street, particularly an unnecessary Mead man" and the recorder was instructed to request the p. G. E. company to remove the "dead man", and move the other poles to a more proper location If possible. A letter was read from the company expressing regret at the poor service given during the month of December and asking tlie cooperation of the city in bettering the conditions by reporting prompt ly any light not burning. It was moved and carried that the bill of the county for graveling a street Inside the city limits, which was laid over from last meeting-, be paid. Mayor Broyles stated that the money received by the charity board as Woodbum 's portion of the unemployment donations was to be used only for county subjects in the city, under the direction of the board of which Mrs. R. A. Trailing er Is president. A sample "No U Turns' sign, which has been painted at the In tersection of Front and Cleveland streets, was deemed altogether too small by the council and the opin ion was that it should be at least three times as large. Mayor Broyles stated that tlie streets were really to? small for signs of the proper sine. The eternal question of fire hose consumed the remainder of a long session and tlie ever present sales man was on hand with samples of his wares which the council ex amined, compared, and looked wise over and then immediately moved to adjourn. Plaque Is Placed SUverton The bronze placque of Eugene Field bought by the grade teachers of the Eugene Field building was placed In the corridor of the building Wednesday and adds greatly to the significance of tlie name of tlie mau to whom the building is dedicated.
