MERIDIAN PLANS TO
BUILD NEW CITY HALL
Meridian, Nov. 21.—As a result of
two fires Monday, which destroyed
the City Drug Store and the home of
Mr. and Mrs. S. R. Carruth, approval
of a move to replace the frame build-
ing now being used as a city haH with
a more substantial structure suitable
to the needs of the town of Meridian
was given this week in the form of
signatures to a petition expressing
sentiment to this effect.
Pointing out that the present city
hall constitutes a great fire hazard,
that it is a menace to the city water-
works plant and the entire business
section and causes the merchants to
pay high insurance rates, the petition
asks that the mayor and the city
council take some action as soon as
possible. The petition was signed by
everyone to whom it was presented.
Members of the Amana communis-
tic communities in Iowa refuse to
ride in automobiles and do not believe
in painting their houses.
Masonic lodges in the United
States nuiqber 16,330 and have a
membership of 3,107,229.
