- ! z
Covington, La, Jan. 8, 1905.
Editor St Tammany FARaER:
Dear Sir-IVhY is it that the
Town Of Covington does not place
an electric light on the new bridge?
1t is really necessity. Just think
Of the great danger, on dark nights,
which lies on the bridge! Is it not
a wonder some one has not been
crushed to death under horses
hoofs or carriage wheels? That
light would light the, road from
bridge to hill in Claiborne and
what pleasant sight 1t would be
to the eyes. / hope, through your
valuable paper, we will in the near
future see Covington's light shine
brightly.
Hoping have not taken too
great liberty. am
Yours respectfully,
MRS. CHARLES DUFOUR
The subject Of au electric light
at the new bridge has been under
consideration ty the Town Council
aud Police Jury, and we have no
doubt one, and perhaps two lights,
will be placed there, one at each
approach to the bridge, in the near
future.

loud enough to rouse the heaviest

AS alarm clocks they should fi time

be changed as often as necessary, 30
