Suggestions are Made.

books; one that could get their fingers
on any book in the library at second.
| notice and would study the year books O.
all the clubs in the league, Chautauqus
Reading circles and Lecture courses, and
be prepared at minutes notice to place
the subjects that are under discussion b5
these different organizations, and thai
would be able to interest young people
who came for books in a course OF read.
ing that would be of practical benefit tc
them and educate them into a line OF
reading from the best authors.
I would can a halt on the bulletin
boards. They are q nuisance. The pa
per is torn from them, and thrown down
TO blow about the streets. They do not
amount to anything as advertising med
iu,n. There are not six people in town
who reads this item can tell to save Their
life one single advertisement on the
boards that is posted up in a dozen diff
ferent places.
Just send in your name and when and
where you were born to Sam Jones, D.

Smith and let them read your palm

am not in favor of property in the
city limits being thrown out. There is
property that has the sewer, gas and
water system of the city, and if it Is
thrown out it becomes valuable for su-
burban homes with all the city accom-
mediation without the taxes.
7 would buy every foot of ground in
park west of Biting ave-
nue. (the street railway north to Elev-
enth street and move out the houses.
Shacky barns, cow pens, pig stys and
heneries are not a good introduction to
that part of the park.
I received a letter this week from a
concern that calls itself 1.-THE New Tri-
bune Colony company" ostensibly for
the location of a colony in Oklahoma,
with headquarters in Indiana. The post
office department ought to go after that
outfit.
L.,
tate for speculation I would buy the
ground along the bank of the Little river
from Pine street to the park, replat it,
park the bank, build a boulevard and
plant trees. 1t will be great place for
nice homes.
I would organize a board of trade here,
a man for secretary that is thoroughly
posted in freight rates. pay him a good
salary. His business would be to do
business for the board of trade and go
for everything in sight
I would see that good round dozen of
toughs that lay arouid this town living
off the shame of women are beating them
whenever they take a no.
ton, would leave this town before sun
down tomorrow night.
I would hire or buy a team, put an
immense rack on the wagon and use it
'13 days in the year hauling manure from
he stalls in the city, killing two birds |
with one stone, purifying the city and |
'ertilizing the park grounds.
I would, when I rebuilt the arch at the |
,ourt to ii, one on each side, of suffi- |
ient dimensions to hold the two new
steel guns and ask that they be kept |
here.
The water in Swan lake must be re-
lewed or the park commissioners will
ave TO order a fresh lot of swans and
ucks. Why not run a small pipe from
he water works and supply it
I would ask his excellency, Governor
stanley, to secure the two old brass
eces that we have had so long and
lace them in the park also.
Boys should not throw clubs at the
ark squirrels. If they were let alone
hey would soon get tame and eat from
he hands Of the children.
I would pass an ordinance preventing
he burning of leaves and not have the
ity enveloped in smoke and SCOT for the
ext sixty days.
The granite block pavement between
he street railway tracks. which was
brown in. is still a menace and dis
race.
heard a man yesterday IN speaking
fellow citizen say 'FWhy you know
nat old one-legged Mckinley soldier"
I would ask the street car company to |
lease paint their bridges in the park.
The old soldiers are still talking about
ev. Tihen's speech at their reunion.
All the trees in the park ought to be
norm of their dead limbs.
