AT the Board of Trade meeting this

AT the Board of Trade meeting this
morning an interesting discussion occur
red in regard to cleaning the snow from
sidewalks during the coming winter. 1t
was the general opinion that some sys-
tenn of cleaning walks should be adopt
ed, and if necessary the charter 30
amended as to permit the assessment
against vacant lots of the cost of keep
ing the walks clean. 1t was unanimous
ly voted to instruct the secretary to
bring the matter to the attention of the
council. This is matter that should
be attended to. While every resident
should by all means keep his walks
cleared of snow, many will feel it hard
ship to do 30 if the vacant lot next to
them is left untouched. 1t was stated
at the meeting that many cities have
plows that are run over the walks after
every storm. 1t should not prove a
very costly matter to clean the walks,
as it seldom occurs that over dozen
falls of snow happen during winter.
