NEW BURTON WATER-SUPPLY__A new water storage tank and well have
been put into operation by the Burton Water Supply Qorpoiation for the city
of Burton- The new storage tank and pump house’ for the city were just recently
completed. Members of the board of directors are Walter Guelker, president;
Howard Matthies, secretary; Leroy Boehnemann. treasurer; and Paul Kessler
and Hugh Derrick members.
Since 1901, The Brenham Fortnightly Club hat
maintained the library so our community could have
books of quality for our children as well as adults.
Due to the increase in circulation, demands of
books in new fields, replacements of children’s and
reference books, and because of the constant demand
of students to better their reading habits, it is neces-
sary to acquire extra funds
This is done through the help of The United Fund.
We urge all citizens to contribute so our library
can maintain its high calibre and service to our com-
munity. : «
