The Billboard Onensc.

A billboard opposite a church in
the central part of the city is To- be
removed as a result OF a protest ON
the part Of the congregation. One
OF The most serious questions in
American cities at present Is the en-
croachment Of the huge billboard nu-
i%sance. The external aspect OF cities
has become largely bIlboards. In
every large town their area mounts
mp into the square miles.
Once cities were proud OF their ar
chitecture. Now Il is largely obscur-
ed or snured u by billboards. civ
ic Improvement societies talk OF
identifying cities, but the cities are
largely hidden behind binboards. In
former times n few small billboards
were devoted TO theatrical or other
announcements. But there are acres
of billboards whore once the surface
was limited to square feet.
High biIlboards and long bill
boards are the modern rule. They
obstruct the view. cut on the air. of
fend the y and put "a town in nau-
seating eclipse. Probably the next
step will be to- fash on the backs OF
pedestrians as they trudge along In
the billboard alleys and canyons.
In European countries this matter
Is managed infinitely better. Paris
restricts billboards in size aud loca-
ton, n they are taxed so as to
produce "A large reyenue for the city
