Some enterprising advertising
lgent connected with an affair that is
% occur on February q has decorated
he poles of the gas company and the |
telephone company as well as some of
he shade trees with beautiful cards
'eading ''Lest we forget February
~" So far as can be learned these
,lacards were put on the poles not only
without the permission of the owners,
nut in express violation of the rules of
10Th the telephone and gas companies
md on the trees in violation of the
,illage bylaws Considering the ex-
nipple set in this regard by older PEG,
he il is not surprising that the high
ehool students should disregard the
property rights of others and the rules
f good taste and it is safe TO assume
hat these placards refer to the high
chool fair. The telephone and electric
oles and shade trees are not the prop
r places for posters or advertising of
ny kind and the sooner Brattleboro
eople and Brattleboro village officers
ecome convinced Of this and make up
heir minds to stop it, the better it will
e for the appearance of the village
treets.
