to a few advantages this "wall"
will bring to the citizens of your
beautiful and fast growing city.
First. consider it's beauty, what
would be more adjoining than
those great walls of masonry
standing out in bold relief right
in the center of your city with
their summit playing playing
''Peekaboo," with the sun by
day and the stars by night, know
ing that behind them stands
blind Justice with her bal
ances? And if you de sir e you
could plant at. this base some
bushel beans and morning glories
and you will soon have beautiful
vine clad walls. Then again by
shutting out public gaze the en-
tire court house can be turned
into one gigantic Blind Tiger, "
(now please consider this
before any farth er OBJ
jection.) 1t will be so nice to
pen all the tigers in town behind
those beautiful vine clad walls,
and then it will be so much more
convenient, see. Again those
walls are such delightful rat har-
bors, they would soon fill every
cellar in your town of those pests
for they love to burrow under
stone walls. Again, there is not
a town in KY, that could boast
of better bill boards; every circus
on the road and shows of all kinds
would come to Columbia and fur
nish passes for the whole town
for the privilege of putting bills
on those walls, just think of
those beautiful pictures right
where you can look out of your
own window and see them with
out going out in the mud. Again

MORE ABOUT WALLS.

Mr.. Editor
For a number of years l have
been living in Florida, yet l am
deeply interested in the welfare
of old Adair Co, KY, and especial
ly Columbia, her Capitol City.
l see in a recent issue of the
News" that Columbia is soon to
become walled city" or at
least the temple of "Unjustice"
is to be surrounded by a massive
stone wall for the purpose, |
understand, of preventing an
overflow of mud. Well / know
from experience that Adair county
mud is at times an unqualified
quantity and as you have a beau
tiful and well arranged Court
House, built at a great expense
to the county, l think that the
Physical Court" did a great
thing in declaring that it shall be
protected. l infer Mr.. Editor
from the tone of the News"
that you are not in favor of the
purposed wall" think this op-
position of yours comes from the
fact of your not having studied
the subject sufficiently to see the
benefit this wall will be to your
town.
Allow me to call your attention
