at the upper end of the business por-

seats the first broken window; next
comes the Post ONCE with two demsl-
ished lights; across the street Pal.
Wright repeats the Apostles Creed
as he gazes into the street through
an empty sash; while J. X. Durr has

should be stopped by the town au-
thorities before consequences more
serious than those of the past, occur
in the future.
