An experimental service will be installed at a cost of $2 per family for a period of four months. This ordinance was prepared by the public service committee of the im- provement association of which W. M. Green is chairman. Mr. Green re- ported It at the last association meet ing and it was adopted by the associa- tion as a satisfactory method of gar* bage disposal. Having fathered the ordinance, the North End 'association is vitally interested in getting it in operation. At a recent meeting of the directors of the association attended by repre- sentatives from the Lake Shore Neigh* borhood club, a' similar organisation in the second precinct or east side of the ward, it ~ was agreed that both| bodies should endeavor to enlist 160 families in the cause in order to get the ordinance put into effect. President Charles M. Howe of the North End Improvement association has appointed the following commit- tee to solicit subscriptions: W. J. Son- ne n. R. O. Vandercook, J. H. R. Jamar, W. M.
