Much criticism has been INDUCED in
by some of our citizens at the action of
the burgess and street commissioner in
taking time by the forelock and cleaning
up the streets and alleys of the borough.
Those people must remember that the
officers are doing nothing but what they
are ordered to do, and, apart from the
constitutionality of the question, what
is done now may save life before the
summer is over. Help them," rather
than "hinder," should be your motto.
