'Also Included in the three year improvement job has been the purchase of property -with springs and water on it, the Installation of the 4000 water meters in Provo city, the enlargement and extension exten-sion of. numerous mainlines In many sections of the city and the 50 per-cent payment for the covering cov-ering -of the "Tanner Race." The other half of the cost was footed by the property owners affected by the covering job. Original Plan According to Commissioner Lewis the original' plan included the construction of a 10,000,000 gallon storage reservoir either near the present reservoir site or in the south' east section of Provo, He pointed out that with the added capacity made available by the new 48 inch line, the reservoir plan was considered unnecessary, He stated that additional plans were "to be considered in the $1,- LOOO.OOO improvement plan, but be cause of inflation since the floating float-ing of the bond in 1945, the value of the final total has decreased, thus curtailing some -of the original orig-inal plans. He said that those projects pro-jects receiving top priority on the original plan have been completed complet-ed or are in the process of completion.

Utah County Commissioners Saturday gave notice to vacate to 'all but one of the offices in the south half of the lower floor of the city and county building, to provide quarters for agencies needed in the function of city and county governments. The Provo engineer's office is the only one. in the south end of the bottom floor which escaped the orders to vacate. Two offices, the AAA and the county agent's office, were on the list to be vacated immediately in order to provide quarters for another an-other district court room and chambers for Joseph E. Nelson, newly appointed district judge. Other offices given notice were Home demonstration office, farm labor office, state and county agricultural inspector, Boy Scout office, and the health department quarters. The decision to have the offices vacated was settled upon Friday at a joint meeting of the county and the. Provo city commisisoners. The commissioners also recommended recom-mended that since the affected agencies have been clamoring for some time for more space, tney should contact the management of the old fire building. The building has an estimated 5000 square feet of available floor space on either of the two floors that could be used beneficially and economically economical-ly by any or all of the groups which must move from their present pres-ent county building quarters, officials of-ficials said. 2 Men Fined In Contributing Case Salt Lake Stock exchange Closing' quotations front th direct wire of Ken-Lo Corporation, Cor-poration, 265 W. 1st N.

GLOBE TAILORS HEADQUARTERS FOR SUITS 1 Spring Cleaning Care and Feeding of Screens By ROBERT SCHARFF Written for NEA Service Nothing can detract from the looks of your home more than shabby screens. But screen maintenance main-tenance is something most homeowners home-owners can do in their spare time, with few tools.; Good care will also lengthen the life of screens. Before screens are hung, they should be washed thoroughly and the condition of the frame checked. If the joints are weak or broken, they can be strengthened by screwing metal braces, to the frame corners. If the screening is rusted or corroded, scrub it clean with hot water and soap. Then brush' on turpentine to loosen and remove most of the rust and corrosion. Finally, paint both sides of the screen with a coat of screen enamel or spar varnish thinned with turpentine. Paint the6 frame, also, to help prevent deteriora tion. . Small holes in the screen can be repaired simply with a "patch" of screening, placed over the hole and woven to the screen with strand of wire.
