Editors The Telegram.
Dear sirs: II seems to me an
ordinance should be passed prohlb-
ittng the distributing Of all kinds OF
circulars. This is about the only
way to keep mass Of rubbish from
accumulating on our streets, and
would add greatly to the beauty OF
our city. You have probably noticed
the pieces of old paper flying around
on windy day. Give us your help
In eliminating this evil.
"a HOUSEWIFE"
Housewife" touches on two sub
jects in this letter. One is the
beauty of the city. The other is the
safety of the city. both as to fire and
as 10 health.
The streets are fun Of dirty paper
in the form OF circulars and waste.
1t looks bad on the street. 1t is bad.
1t is ugly. 1t detracts from clean
appearance. which is one OF the
basic factors OF the beauty of a city.
Indeed. 1t is so apparent that paper
scattered on the streets takes away
from the beauty of the city that one
need not emphasize that in detail
Paper is easily ignited and with
it accumulated it is dangerous on
account of fire. Every one knows
this and every one ought to guard
against it by not using the streets as
dopositpries for It. Again. it gath
ers all kinds of filth and in filth
turks disease. That is so plain that
ever yone knows 1t to be so.
An ordinance exists prohibiting
the posting OF bills on poles and the
like Certainly. the council can see
improvement along that line, and
why should it not do like other cities
by passing an ordinance against
throwing bills or other paper on the
streets? So long as circulars are
distributed, they will And their way
to the street, as most people look
upon them as valueless, and thus to
keep the streets clean of paper there
must be included in the ordinance "A
clause prohibiting the distributing
of bills and circulars.
