Thi will be the greatest expense of
the proposed plan. The other will
cost very little.
The proposed centrifugal pump
would be operated by an electric
motor.
Another proposition in this connec-
tion was n municipal owned electric
light plant. The Mayor and several
members of the council believe that
such a plant can be installed and ope-
rated at a great saving to the people
of Hobart By putting the waterworks
system and the light plant under one
management they figure that the cost
of operation for the two would be very
little more than it now costs for the
waterworks alone, and that light and
power users can be supplied1 with elec
tricity at approximately fifty per
cent of what they are now paying.

Communities Improve by Aid
Atlantic City, July 9.—In his ad-
dress at the opening of the National
convention of the Benevolent and
Protective Order of Elks here, Bruce
A. Campbell, grand exalted ruler of
the order, made an eloquent appeal
to the membership to take a leading
part in their respective communities
in civic affairs that are not connect-
ed with politics, and in developing
the spirit of genuine Americanism
throughout the country.
"With our membership," he said,
"we can continue to assume leader-
ship in every movement, not connect-
ed with politics, which goes towards
the upbuilding, advancement, better-
ment, progress and prosperity of our
respective communities. Each of us

"We can take the leadership in all

abled receive the largest possible
measure of justice from the Govern-
r'red T.ntss «
in this work by reason of our partici
pation with the Federal Board for
Vocational Education.
"We are an American order, com-
posed of only American citizens,

our country upon our altar and pledg

its institutions until the end of time.
Therefore, let us teach real Ameri-

Tuesday night, and in order to bring

of the aldermen will be held Friday
night.
Mayor Nix has conceived the idea
that the surest and most economical
plan for supplying the city with an
abundance of water throughout the
year is to go back to the old Burford
Lake proposition, lay a new 14-inch
cast iron flow line to the settling ba-
sin at the pumping station, clean out
and repair the lake so it will impound
a large volume of water. '
In this connection, it is also pro-

it is believed that the work can be
done at a very small cost in compari-
son with other schemes that have
been proposed, and since it is in no
sense an experiment it will doubtless
be adopted. Still some members of
the council advocate the old Lumsden
plan of tapping Little Elk six miles
north of town and bringing the water
in by gravity to the'reservoir at the

that, while it will cost more than the

WITH DODGE & JACK:—
The indicator points to a wormy
world. Some says you are pruney,
but hard thinking and a great mind
tells us the pesky worms will not be
able to hold all of the crop.
We have never taken you entirely
through our mechanical and highly
equipped Parlors, as it would take
much time and energy to show and
fully explain the full workings of
same, as there are many in's and
out's and more out's than in's.
Doc and Abe tackled Hobo Henry
this A. M. to know the stoutest and
strongest living thing in the world.
Hobo Henry answered readily—"An
elephant's tail.' Abe said a lot of
things that' would not look good in
print. Doc said, "Explain yourself."
Hobo showed them where Jumbo, the
elephant, moved ninety tons, by the
pull of his tail and saved 10,000 lives.
And why he was able to do this was
because it was hitched to such a large
thinking machine. Doc said to Abe
—"Give me a chew of your frog
hair.'
You had better get this. A nice
residence. Close in, large plot of
ground. Will take $500.00 worth of
Liberty Bonds and $50.00 cash. We
get the bonds, the other fellow gets
the cash. The big pull is why we are
able to accomplish this.
We have a good 80 acre farm.
