Mike Kiley, President of the Huntiey Park Board, informs us that thfc week digging lias com¬ menced at the Huntley Park to bring water to the vicinity of the Boy Scout cabin. Mr. Kiley stated that the cost of running the sewer under Rxxite 47 would be too ex¬ pensive to do at this time and that the Park Board intends to place cement privies in the park for the present.
Mr. Kiley also stated that sev¬ eral boys playing in tlie park had done damage to the Boy Scoort cabin. He requested that the boys do not do any more damage to Uio icabin and to keep off the roof. The Park Board plans to replace the glass windows in the cabin in the near future.

Work commenced on the X^l- lation of the pipe organ eariy in April. An organ loft was con¬ structed in the Old Social Hall of the church. The loft measures 12' X 18' X 12' and is divided into two parts, tbe Great Organ and the Stiell Organ. Openings into the church sanctuary are on either side of the dossal curtain and lev* el Vith the reredos and are to be fitted with a dummy pipe cover¬ ing.
The organ is a 21-rank instru¬ ment made originally by Estey Organ Co. of Brattleboro, Ver¬ mont, about 50 years ago. Origi¬ nally installed in Bethlehem Lu¬ theran Church of Chicago, it was given to the United Church of Htmtley a year ago in Jnne. The organ has been completely re- bidh and installed by the Gratian Organ Co. of Decatur, Illinois, and when the work ia completed it will be the equal of a much more cost¬ ly new instrument.
The organ loft was constructed by Dwayne BUlsborough, the las- tering was done by Koppen of Haiapshire, metal work was done Hansen Heating & Plumbing of Himtley and the electrical work by Lester Hellmuth of Reinke Electric.
