Interest over that time an original of $85,000 would mean a debt of around $119,000 to correct the sewer situation. To discharge the debt it was suggested by the bonds man that a charge of $18 per year for 20 years be made on each sewer connection in the city of Delta. This would be in addi-tion to the present debt. Clean Out Line To avoid running into more debt to that extent the city coun-cil decided to try and clean the line.a task that was reported to be well night impossible. However, they did clean the line with a crew and special equipment, mak-ing a thorough job of it. Up to date it is working all right, and for several years to come the situ-ation should be cleared up. Manholes along the line are 400 feet apart. It was impossible to work from one manhole to the next. But by working from one manhole 200 feet one way and from the next manhole working back 200 feet to meet the task was accomplished, flushing the line out under compression. An average of 2 tons of residue each 200 feet of line was pumped out. On one strip of 200 feet es-pecially plugged it was estimated that 10 tons of residue, mostly sand, was cleaned out. An inter-esting sidelight on that is that on the farm where this ten tons was pumped out it filled level sev-eral furrows where grain was planted. At present the stand there is better than where the grain was not thus treated. If the board's present plans ma-terialize (as they think they will) by April, 1951 they will make ev-eryone happy, including Deseret,, and there will be no bonded Births This Week To Truman and Auline Jeffery, a girl, June 21.

He was taken to the LDS hospital toy am-bulance. His son, Grant, brought him home Sunday and he is able to be around some. Russell Hewitt from Long Beach, came up with his cousin, Howard Roundy, last weekend and is visit-ing at the Roundy home. Work has commenced on a $12, 000 storehouse over at the Oasis seed plant. Mr. and Mrs. Fitzpatrick (form-erly Willa Mary Huff) and baby daughter, and Cre and Joyce Huff from Richland, Wash., arrived last week to visit their grandmother, Mrs. Hannah Huff. The party in-tends to leave Wednesday to re-turn to their home, with the ex-ception of Joyce, who will spend the summer with Mrs. Huff. Mrs. Annie Skeem celebrated her birthday Monday. Many rela-tives and friends called to leave good wishes and gifts. A lovely supper was served. Last Monday evening Mr. and Mrs. Clark Bishop had as dinner guests Mr. and Mrs. Berry Boyer and Billie Boyer, of Springville, and Mr. and Mrs. Albert Skidmore and daughters, Aldene, Muriel and Peggy.

Supper will be served at 6:30. New cooks this year are scheduled to outdo the old ones. |
