City to Hire Its Own Crew for Asphalt Repairs
A Hoisle movement seeks to have city employees perform asphalt repairs currently done by Trinidad Asphalt Paving Co. at $2.65 per square yard after an initial period of free repair. The city spends about $5,000 yearly and may relieve the firm from liability on Washington Avenue while reclaiming its bond. The mile long stretch would cost less if city crews handled maintenance.

Prayer of Sin Let Us Alone Sermon Highlights Temptation
Rev. J. F. Mathews at Scranton Street Baptist Church preached on the text Let Us Alone from Mark 1 24. He argued evil can possess a soul so fully that it resists salvation and that faith triggers divine power while laziness and procrastination ruin the self and society. The sermon denounced pernicious literature and modern temptations that beg to be left alone as sins threaten public virtue.
