 There is a great desire on the part
 of owners of horses for hitching posts about town, but the authorities don't want them and as consequence such things will soon be few and far be- | tween, if such is not the case al- ready. The authorities object to the post because they claim 1t takes up
 too much valuable space in the walks. How about a nice ring hold in the curb so that horse can't pull it out? | IL is said that horsemen don't want | this because the animals get tangled up in the hitch line and throw them
 selves. This may be true in some .in-
 stances, but in a general way the ring is all right and there should be
 one in front of every house in town. The regular monthly meeting of the directors of the Waterbury 1 Young Mems Christian association
