"A word to cyclists. There is a town
ordinance requiring bi-cyclers to have their
lamps lighted at night 1t may require a
little time and thought to keep the lamps
trimmed and burning, but it won't cost
near as much as the fine. The law is not
supposed to be respecter Of persons, and
the foolish virgin is as likely to be fined as
the offender of the other sex. To ride with
out light endangers life and limb. Remem
Der the maxim: Good citizens obey the laws.
