condition. The report also pointed

of planking with nails sticking up be
ing dangerous to the children at play.
The committee was authorized to ex
pend the funds necessary in repairing
the building and a copy of the report
was ordered sent to the school board.
Councilman Hofman opened the
pyrotechnic display for the evening by
stating that the fire apparatus was not
being properly taken care of, and that
he had ordered the fire chief to clean
a certain lantern on the fire truck,
and to return some hose from Fifth
street to the Fire Hall which had not
been done. He declared that the Fire
Chief had not been attending to his
duties and that he was negligent and
incapable. Councilman Badger there
upon moved that the resignation of

matter, which was ended by the may
or suggesting that the matter be laid
