DON'T WANT
LIBRARY MOVED
To THE EDITOR:

To THE EDITOR:
wish to call your attention to the
fact that a movement is on foot for
the purpose Of moving the public IL
brary off of Main street. Il seems
TO me this will be very unwise move
for several reasons which will here
try TO make plain.
do not suppose that the moving
of the library from the Main street
to Macon avenue will make any diff
ference 10 the fiction. loving public,
but to the business man who has only
a few minutes 10 spend in such places
il will be a serious inconvenience.
The business man would take few
minutes time to stop in If he we're
going past the building. but to walk a
block out Of his way would b. an
other thing. and with the exception
OF a very few cases. none Of them
would walk the extra distance
Another reason why II should not
be moved t6 side street Ia becsuse
il is near where the working man
comes on Saturday night to spend his
money. Many times this rorking
man will drop into the library and
spend the evening reading, which he
would not do If it were on side
street. because he would not be on
the side street, and II is possible that
instead Of going to the library be
would hunt up saloon to find enter
tainment. Let me urge that the H.
brary be kept on the Main street,
even II ii has to be upstairs.

NO FIRE FOR A MONTH

There has not been fire of any
consequence in Canon City for over a
month. This is all right as far as it
goes, but people are apt to grow
careless and leave combustible mate
rial in exposed places. A ge tleman
remarked recently that he had no.
ticed considerable quantity of rub
bish. paper, etc, in the alleys, and
thinks the attention of the street
supervisor should be called to the
fact.
