PONDS ARE ORDERED DRAINED.
Following Recent Drowning of
Boys, Council Takes Action.
The city council in Kansas City, Kas., last night ordered a number of ponds in that city drained. This action was taken following a number of recent drownings. The agitation in the city against ponds which have been permitted to stand for years, a menace to health and to the safety of the children, has grown to such proportions that decided action was necessary.
