Efficiency Expert Burns has com

many suggestions that should be
carried out In order to make thin
department « profitable one. The
need for additional help on the
book· of the water department
where four times as much work is
entailed since statements are sent
out quarterly was pointed out by
Mr. llurns and It is understood the
council will in the near future ap
point someone to help with the
work. At the beginning of the year
additional help in this department

were paid. The new method of
keeping the hooks has been estab
lished and with additional help the
water department will show a profit
within a short time.
