Samples of the wa- ter were taken by Dr. Rush W. Kim- ball, a member of the club, who was commissioned to do o, and they were sent, to the state laboratory at Mid- detown .for analysis. There were two { samples taken, one from the artesian well and the other from the spring on the bank of Trading Cove brook. On Tuesday Dr. Kimball received re- ports on the samples sent. In regard to the water taken from the spring | near the brook, the report say “The water is low in mineral con- tent and {s soft. In color and other | physical, characters it .is jdeal. The | figures for all organic constituents are low and the chlorine is only slightly | above the normal which for this re- gion is The numbers of bacter:: are very low and no suspicious organ- isms were found. The analysis indi- cates that the water is in good condi- tion for general use.” The report regarding the water taken from the artesian well says “This water is low in mineral con- tent and j8 Soft. It has practically no color, sediment or turbidity. The figures for organic contents are all low. The chlorine is slightly above the nor- mal which for this reason is 2.6. The number of bacteria are low and no | suspicious organisms were found. The slight excess of chlorine is not suf- | ficient to have much meaning and the analysis indicates that the watef is | good for general use.” There was a report a few weeks ago | that_typhoid had been contracted from | the drinking water on the golf grounds | | as one or two of the members of the | | club had light cases of the fever. This | opinion was not upheld by any of the.| | elub members, who had used the water as they were aware of the purity of the | water, but to allay all apprehension it | was thought best to bave an analysis | made.

The chemical got underway with promptness, but was hardly out of the houseswhen it was further ex- plained over the telephone that the call s not_for a fire, but was meant to be the Greeneville company reporting | that they had been out to a fire at that location and had got back. The chimney fire had called Greeneville company out about | o'clock and they had returned from the fire about 9.
