When asked about the water situ

the recent heated period, the wain

consumption readied its peak during
the evening when property own. i

water pressure during this period, ae
cording to Mr. Gallagher, was due mu
to a shortage of water at the wells

that additional wells are not neces-

Advertising with circulars or direct

men or boys, they are often disposed
