The park commissioners had a
splendid basin scooped out last week,
taking the dirt off to the rock. It
will make a lovely place for the]

When the new flooring was put on
the Bluff Creek bridge just north of
town it was put on so tight that it
does not allow the water to run off.
If some way is not found to remedy
this the floor will rot out much more
quickly than it should. After rains j
