RESERVOIR LOW DESPITE CUT IN WATER SERVICE: ) Hour System wien to Build Up Siiee and Rain Is Hela to Be only Salvation for Ade- quate Supply The water situation is still a thorn in the side of William Jones’ troubles as water commissioner. The creek reservoir is less than one: fourth full, it was reported today, $n spite of the establishing of a spe cified hour system of irrigation in the city. The possibility of continued rains was the only silver lining in the troubles of Mr. Jones today. “We need rain here more than anything else,” said Mr. Jones. “The hour system of irrigation | which has been in force about five days now is helping some, but a good sized downpour is what the city | |needs most of all.” Only one violation has been re- ported to the city water department for using the city water for irriga- tion and sprinkling other than be- tween 6 and 9 o’clock in the morn- ug and 5 and 8 o'clock in the aft- ernoon, One men on C Y enue said he would use the water in spite of knowing the regu n. He was told that the water would be shut off if he continued to use it during {closed hours. Mr. Jones made it plain this morn- ‘ing that in deevling with the pres- ent crisis, the hour system of using {water would be rigidly enforced. | Those who do not observe the regu. lations will have their water shut off, he said BIG GUNS HARD ON SLEEPERS Dealers and Manufacturers in Several Secure Booths in Handsome PORTSMOUTH, nee Declaring that night firing preectice by the fleet is distressing the many nerve- wrecked war victims in the area, the local authorities have appealed to the admiralty to discontinue such firing, ANNOUNCEMENT We wish to announce to the ladies of Casper that we have purchased the beauty parlors of Miss Delia Lenehan in the Smith Building and will endeavor to render the same courteous treatment and service as given in the past.
