.Water Board StatementtRegarding
Local SiPuation and Also Remedy
That M re! ford muHt have more anilleuM $30,000 or more each year. -
better water Is conceded by nil and
the water commission, In connection
with the mayor and city council und
I'.niclneers DIHard and Henry,' have
been making a thoroiiKh study or the
same for a long, time and on Mon
day evening they called in a num.
ber of citizens und representatives
of different organizations, including
tho planning commission, for a dis
cussion of the proposition.
Mr. Walthcr, president of tho
water commission, mado a detailed
statement of tho present water sys
tem, told of the plans for bringing
the newly acquired water from I tig
liutte springs and asked whether
those present favored a US' Hecond
feet or a 20 second feet proposition.
Mr. Walthcr said In part:
"Tho present water plpo Hue to
Klsh Iakc, laid In 1U0U. Is practically
worn out, would probably last until
a new system was Installed and the
maintenance will bo heavy from now
on, estimated at $10,000 per year.
During: the patU Hi months tho re
pairs oil the plpo line havo cost $34,
000. "Honda voted for tho present water
system have not been retired as they
should have been, and there are now
Jir.il.000 of bonds outstanding that
arc being retired at the rato of $1!0,-
0U0 per year. Thoro will be $10,000
paid off this year and $10,000 In the
first part of 1920, which would leave
about $300,000 bonds outstanding be
fore tho new Issue would start bear.
Ing Interest, should the people vote
the proposed Issue to bo submitted
to them about October 6, "
"Tho water commission wilt posi
tively provide in this eloctlon that
not only shall tho present bond issue
bo paid off but ulso. tho new Issue
must be paid In 40 years, within
tho llfo of -the now system.
"Tho cost of the pipn lino for 15
second feet would bo $40,000 and
20 second feet would cost 16 per cent
more, or $960,000 If put In now.
Homo think 15 second feet, which is
two and a half times more than the
present supply, would be sufficient
for a city of 20,000 to 30.000 and
would be plenty for a number ot
years while others thnik 20 second
feet should lie put In now. Wo want
to know what the peoplo think about
It. ; . , . .- ;,
"The. new.' system, If voted, would
provide for a new Id-Inch main from
tho reservoir to the west part of the
city, In .addition to tho .present, which
would double tho' pressure on tho
west side and Increaso that on the
east side and would bo amply suf
ficient for all purposes. This would
cost approximately $40,000. i
"The" bonds, f authorized by a!
vote, would bo serial, not to exceed!
40 .years with provision to pay .t

"In order that the peoplo inuy

Hubbard gets off the following bit
of high calibre hokum:
' "To p o r f o r m Its required
physiological function the ekln

Thut Ib not true, as any ordinary
observer should know. The skin will
perform Its physiological function
perfectly when It Is as dirty as dirty
can be. Dr. Hubbard goes on:
"Gatherings ot dead cells, dried
out oil (cehaceum) admixed
with dust and sweat, which when
drier) coats the surface, stops up
the pores and interferes with the -v
normal-functioning of the skin..
-To be specific: j Wo know that:
the sweat pours out of little
tubes, that tho skin is lubricated
by small oil glands which open
onto the skin by means of ducts. -that
thero are many millions of .
those tiny openings in the sklnX
surface. - If sweat mixed with ''
dirt, and akin oil Is dried and
not romoved from the skin, these
