AQVertlSer Bureau,
 Selma, March 13.
 The action of the City Council last night in appropriating $25 to the ladies who compose the Civic Society, whose purpose Is to improve the appearance of the streets of the city. has met with the approval of everyone.
 It was the intention of the society to form a park or public square in the middle of Washington Street, for merly occupied by the city market. This move on the part of the society does not meet with the approval of the Council as 1t claims Washington Street is one of the principal business streets of the city and now that it is free from the obstruction that for so many years almost blocked 1t, 1t should be kept open for business purposes.
 Another strong reason on the part of the City Council is that this block is fronted almost entirely by negro bar rooms and little restaurants and that it would not be a suitable place for ever so small a park.
 The effort of the. society to beauttfy the streets of the city is a most com- mendable one and it is move in which they will receive the help of the city.
