DR.. Hall is going to enforce the splitting
ordinance. Just think of splitting
ordinance, anyway! Think of it being
necessary to pass a law and of going to
the trouble to enforce it by officers and
a court In order to prevent men from
defiling the sidewalks in that disgusting
manner. It's far cry yet between a
real gentleman and just a mere male
human being in whom the instincts of
decency have been only partially de-
veloped or neglected altogether. Dr. Hall
is doing the right thing again. He gen-
orally does. "More power to him.

DEATH OF#THE FIERY DRAGON
1t wos offul dark down on Kenwood Park
way. Bryn Mawr where all the Great Fiery
Dragons make their lair, was as black as the
jam closet in the cellar when the light has
gone out. Alice, aged 5, who lives on Ken
wood Parkway andg'.sees things sometimes,
awoke in the night because she thought she
heard the Great Fiery Dragon, that eats
folks. trying to cross the railroad tracks from
Bryn Mawr so as to- get "a bite of the nice
fresh children tlrat lives on the Hill. But
Alice decided the next day that 3praps it wos
frate train choosdhsqfngl ap the grade and
glarins at her with tss>fiery headlight :
Katy Brent said there wasn't no Dragons
anyhow, but Alice decided to take no chances.
So she told the Owen Twins all about it.
Now everybody knows that the Owen Twins
are gallant Knights who rescue young Maid
ems who are either In distress or who are held
IN foul entertainments. TO them Alice de-
scribed the Fiery Red Dragon. These gallant
young princes listened with great interest and
when she had finished her story,Sithey asked
her eagerly if the Great Fiery Dragon really
breathed out fire and flames, and she1Mas sure
of it. She had almost seen him do it. In fact
she knew he Gid.
Then the Owen Twins leaoed u2on their
gaily caparsoned tandem bicycle which was
chanping it's hit at the door, and flew to the
stone quarry, where they secured a key OF
giant powder. With this strapped to their
handle bars, they made their way to the cave
Of the Great Fiery Dragon across the crooked
bridge in Bryn Mawr.
Now the Great Fiery Dragon sleeps by day,
and the Owen Twins mother would ,not let
them stay out all night, even: to Stay Dragons
who breathe fire. SO they left the key of
powder right at the door of: the cave and went
home.
And that night when the Great Fiery Drag
on came out TO lock fer, children to eat, the
first thing he did WAS to breathe his fiery
breath on the giant powder, and it desploded
at once and. blew him, INTO thousand thou
sand million pieces an that's all.
Since then, Alice has not seen a Great Fiery
Dragon, and it IS said that there isn't any
more left in all Bryn Mawr coz they're dead.
