BOYS are nice. We like boys, wish to see
them play. We take great delight in their
CANDLES, especially for marbles, but we don't
like to step in the pots at night. Some boys
like to play on the sidewalk and they make
deep holes to play in. They make them big
enough to,take in foot, and it spoils the side
walk and makes things ,lisagreeable I'm
fortunately there is no ordinance on this sub
ject because it isn't 'Obstructlng and the
Street Inspector is poweriess. We thought
there was nothing on earth the scrap book
would not cover, but we think we have un
earthed one this time SO as We can't do any
better, we take the other horn of the dilemma
and tell the little boys kindly and politely
that we wish they would stop making holes on
tho sidewalk.
