the planting of shade trees and or

DANGEROUS SPOT
 SHOULD BE. FENCED IN.

Somebody in authority should take steps to have Mad river from the Liberty street bridge to the dam in the rear of Steele & Johnson's fenced in. It is very dangerous spot the year round, especially at this season when most of it is frozen over and crowds of youngsters congregate upon the ice, many of them venturing close up to the edge or the stream. Y Yesterday afternoon a schoolboy with his books under his arm kept fooling around there until he was warned off and judging by his antics if left to himself he would not have left with out taking header into the water. Youngsters may not be aware of the depth. Of the water at that point Near the bridge the tallest man in town would be over his head and to make things worse there are several feet of sticky mud at the bottom, so that if one went down he would be apt to stay there for some time. The place is a menace to the whole neighbor- hood and something should be done to close it up.
