frst time over the doings of the West
Side board OF trade at last nights meet
Ing In the directors room of the West
Side bank. There were present a num-
ber OF the members Of the board who
hitherto hsye been absent from the
meetings. One new and important ac-
tion of the board was to move against
the nuisance of painted sidewalks and
curbs for advertising purposes. John j.
Davis, the South Main avenue druggist,
started the movement. He referred to
the curb on Washburn street near Main
avenue which. for the past three years,
has been disfigured by a long ad. Mr..
Davies thought that paints, varnishes.
and other indelible materials should be
eschewed and that chalk etc. would be
considered allowable.
T. +. Mason moved that u commune
cation be sent to Mayor Bailey directing
his attention to the nuisance. The mo-
tion was duly carried. Alfred Twining
vas admitted to membership in the
board. In regard to the repairing OF the
road OH West L.ackawanna avenue hill
the board decreed that the Traction
company We're responsible and should
do the repairing. Hon. John X, Farr
