WILL CHLORINATE THE WATER
On account of impurities,
found in the water supply re
cently, Mr. W. A. Parham, pre
sident oil the Oxford Water
Company, appeared before the
town commissioners Wednesday
night and stated that tjhe entire
water supply here will be chlori
nated just as soon as the ma
chinery can be installed, possib
ly as soon as ten days or two
weeks.
An examination of well No. 3
some time ago showed slight
impurities; more recently the
annalysis of the same well
showed no impurities, but the
water as a whole did not come
up to requirements in every par
ticular. The entire supply, said
Mr. Parham, will be chlorinated.

that the latter went out to investi

briskly underneath the rear of his
store building. He extinguished the
blaze,' and in doing so found that the
job was the work of an incendiary, i
He then started for town, according;
to the son, declaring there was too ;
much of "this burning of buildings'

Dates and Places Of Moving Pictures
For Two Weeks.
Following is a program of the
Community Meetings to be held in
the county from Nov. 15th to Nov.
27th, inclusive. It will be noted that
the evening formerly granted to Cul
breth has been given over to Berea.
The meetings have been more than
ordinarily interesting the last few
months. The school children add
very materially to the enjoyment of
the evenings by their little programs
of various nature, and even the pa
rents are occasionally drawn into
the stunts that are staged. A new
mechanic has been secured, thus in
suring better pictures from this time
forward. During the month of Oc
tober more than three thousand peo
ple attended these meetings (this
figures does not include the chil
dren under six years of age). .We are
hoping to reach a monthly total of
four thousand by the end of the year.
