practical to do so. Councilman Wilkins declared the city should provide an object lesson in proper sanitation by promptly placing the Fairvie.w trunk sewer in a sanitary condition. He called at
tention to the fact that this sewer empties onto open ground and provides a great nusiance. The mayor approved the suggestions made by both White and Wilkins. , Any man in town who wants a job cutting weeds can do so by applying to the street commissioner.

The attendance at the Sunday school had increased in proportion and the finances of the church were in a condition far above the average.

That Turtle Hound Now Catches Eels
Turtle catching is getting too tame for that hound of Al Steen's, which hangs around the county jail most of the time. He is now an eel catcher. Charles Morgan said that he found a few weeks ago that the turtle hound was particularly fond of diving Into about ten feet of water. He thought at first that the dog was just' doing it for sport's sake, but one day the dog brought up one of those elongated, snake-like fishes. The mystery was solved. The turnkey filed Fido's teeth, because he understood that dull teeth were responsible for the dog's many unsuccessful dives. "Eels are slick and quick, but now our jturtle hound is quicker and his teeth are some sharp. - All that we have to do when we want a good mess
of eel is to take him down along the creek. ' He never falls to make a catch," says Morgan.
