The public spirit of the Templin
Fair Company was shown on Tuesday
evening by the illumination of their
dock. warehouse and residence. The
lamps hung over the sidewalk at the

who are unused to the peculiarities
of our sidewalks.
It is a source of great regret that
the ideas of some of our young men
are so warped that they fail to
recognize the difference between
wholesome fun and wanton destruc-
ton. The destruction of the Chinese
lanterns on the dock on Tuesday
evening was piece of vandalism that
should not be condoned.
