Yhe Billboard Fiuht.

An ordinance which is expected to
force billbrards from the residence dis
trfcts was recently approved by the
Chicago council building committee.
1t requires billboard companies to Sc
cure consent of two-thirds OF the prop
erty wne on both sides Of the street
before erecting a billboard in any block
in the residence district. Any block
in which a majority of the lots are
occupied by residences is to be con-
sidered. for the purpose of the ordi-
nance. a residence neighborhood.
Strong protests were made by the rep
resentatives of the billboard companies
when the ordinance was first consid-
cred by the building committee, but no
further objections We're made at the
time of its approval. energy being re-
served for action later. but it is be-
lieyed that this ordinance will even
tually drive the billboard from resi-
dence districts.

School Gardens.

All the available space not needed
for play should be put into school jar
dens, and if the school grounds prove
of insufficient extent an effort should
be made to obtain the use of a vacant
lot nearby. Each child should have
a plot for its own and should be pro-
tected in such ownership. Not only
must the children be taught to care
for their own, but they must learn to
respect and protect the rights of 9TH
ers. So general has become the inter-
est in school gardens that it is now
possible in many states to get teachers
trained in the work. Children should
not be deprived of playtime, but every
encouragement should be lent to carry
some Of the work on in the home gar
den and there OF at the schoolyard do
certain garden work on Saturdays.
