Construction of Water Main on Bartlett to Start Construction of an eight Inch water main on Bartlett st. between Fourth it. and Mitchell Way, to be built by the Medford Water depart ment, will start Monday. Robert Lee, city water su perintendent, said the purpose of the main will be to Increase the amount of water which would be available in case of fire in the area. ' The new main will supple ment, not replace, existing four and six-inch mains which wre installed in the area in the early part of the century, Lee said. The existing mains, he ob served, will still be used, but they are no longer of ade quate size to supply the re quired amount of water which should be available in case of fire. Much of the city'i fire In surance rating depends on the amount of water which is available for fires, and for this reason the supplementary lines are being installed. The installation of the new pipe on Bartlett st. is but one part of a project undertaken in 1955 to lay additional water mains in this area of the city. The project is now nearly completed. Throughout the project, many fire hydrants have been installed or relocated and some new hydrants will be installed on the portion of the main now being constructed, according to Lee. It will take about a month to complete the main, he said. Order Restrains Coos Prospeclors Coos Bay - (ITS - Circuit Judge Robert C.

Think The Volkswagen is 4 feet shorter than a conventional car, yet has as much leg room up front as many big cars. Mother, father and three growing kids suit it nicely. So does regular gas, in surprisingly tiny amounts. Other than radio and side view mirror, we can't think of anything important that isn't included on the VW at its low price. Last year, almost 120,000 Americans thought small and bought VW Sedans. Think about it. While you have it in mind, come in and drive one.
