BOYS ROB A BANK.
Took Safe Money and all oH-Divided d
the Money.

About a month ago Brazel Holings.
worth and Wiley Fuller, two negro
boys aged respectfully Is and 16, came
from Greenville, Texas. and took up
quarters in Ardmore.
Fuller, who has been working
around Mrs. Will Robersons on b
street southwest for some time, spied
two little banks Friday in the house.
They belonged to the children, and
were their saving banks. and nickles
and dimes had been dropped in them
until quite a little sum had accumula-
ted.
The sight Of them was too much for
Fuller, and when he picked up one of
them and shook il, and could hear the
chink of the coin, it was just simply
out of the question for him to leave
that room unless the banks accom-
panied him.
He put them into his capacious poe
kets. and took them of, but did not for
get MS old partner, Hollingsworth. and
divided with him. They proceeded to
spend II, and when the money was
missed Fuller was suspected and
placed under arrest by ex-Omcio Po.
liceman Frank Kolb. He acknowledged
his theft TO Mr.. Kolb and implicated
his partner, who was also detained.
both of whom were taken before Judge
Gait and pleaded guilty to taking the
money and were fined $3.50 each.

REHABILITATION.

LIABILITIES.
About Signs on Streets.

have been requested by many to
publish my construction of Ordinance
No. 1f6, with reference to prohibiting
signs above the sidewalks. streets,
etc, of the City of Ardmore beg to
submit the following. Section Of this
ordinance is as follows;
"All persons owning, using or con
trolling any sign or signs, extending
across or above the sidewalk below or
above the awning in the city of Ard
more, shall remove the same, togeth-
er with the posts, supports or swings
supporting the same, other than avn
ing posts, and the failure to so re-
move the same and such supports
shall be an offense and punishable as
hereinafter provided"
Section 3 of said ordinance employs
the following language:
This ordinance applies to all signs
swinging or extenu,ng across or above
the sidewalks, streets or alleys in the
city of Ardmore. provided the same ex-
tends beyond rs inches from the wall
of the building"
II is obvious, from a reading of the
above sections, that this ordinance
was intended to. and does, apply to
all signs whether above or beneath
the awning, and does not apply only
to swinging signs across the side
walk. The only sign which is allowed
at all, under the ordinance Is a sign
next and imme~--,ely adjacent to the
wall of the building. and which does
not extend more than eighteen inches
therefrom.
1t is, therefore. my opinion that all
signs whether extending across or
above the sidewalks, above the avn
ing, or attached or annexed TO the
edge of the awning, are required to be
removed, and only the signs which are
annexed to, or do not extend beyond
eighteen inches from the walls of the
building are protected under this or
dinance
The only redress for those who may
feel themselves aggrieved by this Or
dinance is by petition TO city council
