HAS A MAN 4 RIGHT TO sPETY

We read with much interest the
answer TO this question from an ex-
change in last Fridays Light. You
bet he has. and right to breathe,
p right to live, right to express
his opinion. etc Man has whole
lot of rights but he should exercise
them all like a gentleman" The
writer CHANGED to stop in front of
Durham's store last Saturday morn
ing TO look AZ the nice lot of hats to
be given away at o'clock Several
well dressed men were seated on some
boxes while others stood near by dis
cussng crop prospects. Many of
them pressed manfully on their fav-
orite brand and squirted great
mouthfuls OF amber right in the
middle of that nice sidewalk. when
they could have just as easily spit
in the street But there comes some
dignified. well dressed ladies with
snow-white skirts VIII they notice
the three great pools of amber? No,
they have passed into the store I'M
mindful OF what they were dragging
their skirts through.
Has the city an ordinance against
such disgusting practice?
Yes. a man has a right to spit,
provided he does not interfere with
the comfort and pleasures of others.
