Revocation Of License.
Commissioner West said yesterday
that all permits were granted only
after permission had been procured
from majority Of the residents on
both sides OF The street in the block

for obtaining a revocation OF the per

a permit rests altogether with the resi-
dents Ia the Immediate vicinity.
Should a sign at any time prove Of
fensive TO a majority OF such residents,
all that Is necessary is that a majority

and the nuisance will be abated. The

A Little Praise.

An exchange remarks that there
is nothing like a little hearty
praise to stimulate one on tC
nobler, better deeds.
Many people, however, act on
the direct opposite and seem to
think better than a little hearty
blame. They are mistaken, con-
scientious as they may be.
There are people III this world
who have no way of knowing
that their efforts are appreciated
save when they do not receive
censure for what they have done.
They never receive any praise.
It ought to be different.
There are burdens enough in
Effectiveness and pain enough,
and more, for us all.
Ii you have not been in the
habit of praising commendable
things, try it awhile and see how
much more sunshine you will ere

and growing.
