CROUP Osnnli Cucttyptu Ointment st Aik pnua itorii Tunes gae Jm hCmiJ OF The chief events of Interest In Tuesday night's council meeting were tho council's refusal to accept the res ignation of Lieutenant Elmer T. Foss as city recorder and fls voting to keep the position open for him until he re turns from the war, and tho voting of an appeal to the owners of vacant lots to burn the grass and weeds off of them and off the sidewalk grass plots as soon as possible. Tho dry grass and weeds are a big menace to the city, and the council authorized Fire Chief Lawton to em ploy men to aid the fire department In burning the grass and weeds off of those lots whose owners either reside out of the city or refuse to burn the grass. Chier Lawton will start this work tomorrow morning with the aid of several Company I soldiers. No Increased Pay. Chiof Lawton says that most citi zens can burn the grass from their va cant lots without tho supervision of the fire department providing they do tho work in tho early morning or in the evening and use common sense precautions. .However, wherever there is exceptional danger, the fire depart ment will supervise the burning upon request. ' -''''--.'- Chief Lawlort's.-effort lo have the council raise-.the pay of the city fire men from $70 a hionth to equal that of the policemen which Is $S0 a month was unavailing. But on his statement to the council that Fire man H. N. Mark, who is the fire de partment's automobile expert ami mechanician would resign unless he received $15 a month increase for his special work, the council voted Mark an additional $10 a month as depart ment mechanician. Foss Itciiuit ion. It lias been known for some time that City Recorder Foss. -vho is first lieutenant of Company Seven, would resign before the company went into active service, and therefore no sur prise was created when the resigna tion was presented last nigut. Neith er was any surprise created when the council laid tho reslgi ation on the table and. said lots of . nice tilings about .Mr. Foss ajid his efficient sere Ices to tho city forjO'oars. - " Tho council unanimously expressed a vote of appreciation for Mr. Foss' faithful service to the city, and decid ed to keep the position open for him until his return from war. and in the meantime emp'oy a deputy to fill the position, ilisi llaswcll assistant re corder, who has heen employed in the office for several year-:, will probably be given the dvtiea rl lecotder. " Mr. Foss has been an official of tho city for six years or more, first as assistant city engineer, then as cashier of the water department and last as city recorder, being twice elected to the latter office. He is a Mason, an Elk and member of the University club. Lieutenant Foss was one of the ori ginal members of Company Seven, joining as a private five years ago and Is the only remaining member of the company who was mustered In at Its Inception. ItcslKiiittion Is Rend. Mr. Foss was not present last night when City Attorney Mears read his resignation and tho council acted on It. Ills resignation read as follows: Gentlemen: Inasmuch as I expect to be called into tho fei'.cra, army be fore your next meeting and do not know when 1 will return, 1 hereby tender my resignation as city recorder to take effect the 25th Inst. In this connection I might say, If permissible, that I have completed the entire transcript of proceedings cov ering ul! special assessments for every local improvement, as well as the gen eral transcrlp in re the various char ter amendments, standing ordinances. etc. Moreover, tho regular work of my office is absolutely up to date and ready to turn over to my successor. As you are aware my accounts as cashier of the water department were audited by an expert up to March 1, 1017. However, I would like very much to have a complete audit of all Ihe accounts ar.d records of my office from January 1. I 'J 16. the date of the last general audit, to the date of my turnover.
