Gently.
Some time ago your correspondent
took. up the question Of lighting the
county: road from the city limits to the
Adams school with arc lights, as con-
siderable shooting was carried on dur
ing Sunday nights, preventing many
from attending church. Chief of Police
Nick. Kent put stop to the shooting
in short order. by arresting three men
who We're heavily fined. We are
pleased to announce this week that
the supervisors, after Investigating our
claim Of the necessity OF lights have
decided to put in three arcs in the
near future. 1t seems to us that the
city should put one on the corner of
the road at the limits and with the
three township lamps ample light
would then be OH hand and much COM
fort to the residents of Adams would
be the result The city gets a large
revenue from, the people of Adams
location, as there is in the neighbor-
hood Of 200 families living there. 1t
seems that this is not asking too
much, all things considered.
Kind words and many of them are
spoken in all the homes at Adams,
for Miss Murry and Miss Hull, teach
ers- at. the kindergarten. The exer-
cises carried out at this school was a
joyous surprise to the parents Of the
little tots who attended in large NUM-
bers.
