clares Captain Hale. He tigures
it will cost arouad 3200. It will
be a concrete standard and will
replace the old fountain so famil-

Hundreds of water subscribers
on the North Side west of Lee-ave
were without water Tuesday aft-
ernoon. A circuit water main at
the corner of Central and Lee-aves

Workers in the office of the
North Fort Worth water depart-
ment were inundated with tele-
phone calls, as housewives found
it an exasperating proposition to
prepare supper without the neces-
sary aqua.
The phone bussed and bussed

ened to shut up the office and flee
