For four seasons, Armstrong has
I ueeu a siunu-uui lacKie m ine iuis

better to notify the sheriff.
. Chief Barclay reported that for
the month of November there had
been one arrest and fines and costs of
$18.25 collected.
Chief O. Sandin of the fire depart
ment reported that there was eight
fires in the month of November.
Chairman Rebal of the judiciary
committee, reported that the work of
revising the city ordinances, which
had been made a WPA project several
months ago, had not started and no
word received from the attorney that
had been secured for the work.
Discuss Perkins House
A great deal of time was spent in
discussing the merits of the sale of
the Perkins House building to the
Gerber "Wrecking Co. of Lincoln, for
the sum of $1,500, the company to
tear down the building and use the
material derived from it. Council
man Webb, whose committee of tax
and property had the matter in
hand, made the report on the proposi
tion.
The councilmen had a very extend
ed discussion of the matter of the
sale and the larger part of the mem
bers favored" the disposal of the
property as the building was in very
bad shape and the roof practically
gone and the upper floors in such
shape that it would require a great
deal to have it put in anyway good
shape.
Councilman Vroman opposed the
tearing down of buildings on Main
street and Councilman Tippens also
was not in favor of the wrecking of
the three story brick structure.
Chairman Webb reported that the
wrecking company proposed to put
up part cash for the building and
pay the other as the wrecked material
was sold.
City Attorney J. H. Davis, also
president of the Chamber of Com
merce, stated that in view of the
fact that river navigation was so
bright he thought that the building
might be used for a warehouse or
factory as there was much valuable
space in the structure.
Donald McPherson, a spectator, of
fered the suggestion that the build
ing might be used as an apartment
house or made into offices as the
demand would be strong for these
with the opening of the river navi
gation. Mayor Lushinsky stated that the
matter would be held up and talren
up with the Chamber of Commerce
and other civic bodies to learn the
wish of a majority of the people as
to the sale of the structure.
Mayor Lushinsky stated that com
plaint had been made as to the oper
ation of a duck pin alley on Sunday
and after 11 o'clock at night. He
stated that this was in violation of
ordinance 538. Councilmen Vincent
and Gabelman stated that pool was
being played on Sunday in the city
also, Councilman Vincent stating that
this had been given as the reason by
the manager of the duck pin alley for
remaining open Sunday. The mayor
stated that the city ordinance that

governed these cases must be en
forced. - Chairman Comstock of the light
ing committee stated that reports
had indicated the sale of the Iowa
Nebraska Light & Power Co., and he
was interested in learning the atti
tude that other places would take in
the matter. Councilman Webb stated
that the legislative committee of the
League of Nebraska Municipalities
was to meet on Sunday and Monday
at Lincoln and suggested that Coun
cilman Comstock attend as much leg
islation affecting light and power
would be discussed. Councilman
Webb cited the trouble that the
city of Ord, just a short distance
from the main hydro plant had in
keeping a good service of light and
he wondered whatf the service would
be here, a long distance from the
seat of the power plants.
Mayor Lushinsky reported on the
new sewer proposition unaer tne
WPA and which is getting a good
start. The engineers had insisted on
starting at the north end of the
sewer and working south. There were
sixty-two men at work at this time on
the project and the rock for the
sewer was being secured from the
Joe Wheeler farm south of the city.
The engineers were opening up 100
feet of the sewer at a time and the
dirt removed was being used in fill
ing streets where it was badly need
ed.
Councilman Schutz stated that ha
thought the sewer should be cribbed
as a safety measure for the workers,
as heavy truck and bus traffic was
liable to cause a cavein and injury
to some of the workers. The mayor
stated that this was being looked
after and material was now on the
ground for the cribbing.
Chairman Webb of the WPA com
mittee gave a very interesting report
of expenditures that had been made
on various projects and for the fire
department in the past year. The
fire house had cost $945.09, the new
fire truck $4,079.45 and of which
the city had paid the amount of
$3,079.45 and the firemen $1,000;
the city hall improvement has been
$328.67; tennis courts, $42.20; Lin
coln avenue rocking and grading.
$1,638.93 and so far on Chicago ave
nue fewer the cost had been $174.10.
Vincent Kelley was present and
extended to the councilmen and
mayor an invitation to attend the
meeting to be held this evening to
discuss a Junior Chamber of Com
merce, the meeting to be held at
the Recreation Center.
