WHITE AND GOLD PAINTS
Render the Town Clock in the Court
House Tower Practically
Useless.

Painters employed in repainting the
court house have painted the dial
of the town clock in the tower with
white paint and the figures on the
dials and the hands with gold paint.
With the old coIors of blue and gold
it was difficult to discern the clock
faces a reasonable distance away but
the new combination makes it al
most impossible to see them even
from the street beneath. If the
dials are to be painted white, the
hands and figures should be painted
black unless the idea is to render the
big clock practically useless.
