Mayor Edgar Hibbs told the board. In aesaion at the town hall, that quite a few of the residents are anxious to get the water put in their houses. He said it will re quire sending a sample of the water to Raleigh each month for analysis. Bennie R. Garner, chairman of the water main project, also said the board will have to decide how large the linaa into the homes shall be The commissioners said they could make no decision at that time on how much to charge those who connect.

Mayor Hibbs announced that the town had concluded the contract with the state to maintain town streets. Action Deferred Adopting of the schedule B privi lege license tax rate for the next fiscal year was deferred until the board can give the matter further consideration. Having- a town map drawn was considered but no action was taken because the cost was considered to be too high. Prentis Garner, tax lister, who attended the meeting said he thought the maps already existing could be used to get all the mapped property on one piece of paper. George Ball, town attor ney, said the mapping of property not already mapped, would involve a lot of research on the part of an engineer or surveyor. The town board decided to con tribute $1 toward firemen's auto tags rather than relieve firemen of paying their poll tax which they were advised was illegal. $80 Appropriated The board appropriated $80 to send two firemen to Charlotte to firemen's school.

McCabe, said, he was willing to cooperate with the town in their wanting to run a street by his property and request ed a sketch of exactly what they wanted in way of easement, Mr. Ball said he would draw the sketch. The board decided to lay off an other road in the housing project. Commissioner Wilbur Garner served candy bars, the mayor served soft drinks, and coffee was available through the courtesy of the firemen. After bills were paid the meeting recessed.

He ordered the confiscated car restored to its owner and the 36 half-gallon . jars of whiskey found in the car destroyed.
