COUNCIL ORDERS
CLUB ROOM
FOR RISK
Owln? to the absence of Mayor
Ashley, and upon vote of the coun
cil, Oscar Selmer acted as mayor at
the regular session of the town
council last night. '
Much business of importance was
transacted . Mr. Hardy reported
considerable progress on the con
struction of the concrete wall for
the skating rink, and upon his re
commendation a house will be se
cured and fitted with a stove and a
few benches, which will be placed
adjacent to the skating- rink as a
sort of club room where skaters
may vut on ana take off their
Bkates and be free from the cold
and wind. Mr. Hardy says he ex
pects to have the rink with every
thing completed before the council
meets again.
An agreement ha? been made wit
the Home Power Company for wat
er for the rink, the city to pay
the company $25 lor the season.
The city was asked to put a win
dow in the south, wall of Mrs.
Bunting's room ia the school, which
was granted.
Several places in town came in
for a general discussion, among them
being th.e old Pack Train restaurant
buildiufi which the council de
clared is a fire trap. Efforts will
be made to do something with it.
Complaint was made because of
the wood being piled on side walks
in some places, end other complaint
were that lumber is often left in
the street with nails up, thus en
dangering children on the way to
and from school.
Stove pipes and flues were or
dered be inspected as soon as
possiole in order to avert any pos
sible danger from fire.
Upon refusal of the mayor pro
| tem to make a speech the council
I then adjourned .
