Oa the request for a union of the

that progress toward this end had

Would prove for the city a
jnost attractive buy. If the
propertyis sold to a private in-
dividual, it will likely be tom
down and the lumber utilized
for other building purposes.
Should this occur, Cuero would
have no public hall of any
character where public gath-
erings could be held, where a
Turkey Trot ball, for instance,
Wld be held or the sessions of

brought here.
Should the city acquire the
property it would be tax ex-
empt, no extra expense would
be incurred in keeping up the
place, the city hall janitor be-
ing available for this duty al-
so. A nominal charge couM
be made to organizations or in-
dividuals who want the use of
the building and it could in all
probability be made almost, if
not entirely, self-supporting.

action on this proposition, in
