think a reduced insurance rate
??is the primary purpose of this.
I think the major thing to con
sider is that if I'm sick in the
town's largest hospital I want
to know that if there's a fire
there's enough water to put it
out."
Mayor W. C. Burrell said the
time was coming when a street
would be cut on the north side
of Main Street and would need

No agreement has been
reached with Dr. Angel.
The request was turned down
when presented in January to
the old board of aldermen.
Mr. Gnuse reported to the
board on a letter he had re
ceived from the Harwood-Beebe
Company. South Carolina engi
neering firm which drew up
plans for a quarter-million dol
lar filter plant here. Cost fig
ures were presented by the com
pany for plants at various les
ser capacities at the request of
the aldermen.
Also authorized was the lay
ing of a six-inch main from
a point on Maple Street near
Prelo Dryman's home to the in
tersection of Wayah Street at
the Catholic Church. This would
loin a six-inch main there rfnd
be connected on the other end
of Maple Street, at Palmer,
with a similar-sized pipe.
All of the aldermen were
present for the meeting.
Right Age But
Wrong Gtizen . . .
A sharp-eyed Press reader,
R. S. Peek, detected this
newspaper's error in referring
to Mrs. IV. A. Setser, 98-yeax
old Cartoogechaye woman, as
the county's oldest citizen.
She's just nearly the old
est.
"Uncle Billy" McCoy, of the
Gold mine community, has
the longevity record. He's 98,
too, but his birthday is April
15. Mrs. Setser wasn't born
until days later. Her birth
date of July 5 makes her 81
days younger.

School Figures
Are Adjusted
Macon's school system will
have about $13,000 more this!
fiscal year for current expenses ;
than it had last year.
The increase comes from a
10-cent raise In the tax l.evy
votei by the county commis
sioners for the schools.
A budget story in last week's I
Press indicated the schools
would have more than $15,000. !
The misleading figure was ar
rived at by comparing last
year's expenditures with this
year's budget. To get an accu
rate picture, budgets for both
years should have been com- )
pared.
