Low Limbs,

There are a nun Der of places about
the city where the lower limbs of
shade trees near the walks need
trimming. The shade is very de-
sirable thing along the streets these
warm days, but when there is wet
day, such as Monday, the limbs over
weighted with water hang over the
walk at a distance Of about five feet.
The passer-by is greatly annoyed by
the frequent collisions and brushings
received. A little trimming would
remedy the fault, and would be very
much appreciated by many.
