THE sPIrrlNe NUISANCE

Apropos the anuspttng ordinance urged by the club
women Of chekasha, the following editorial from the Ok
lahoma city Times IS Of interest.
The mayor % Tulsa has instructed the chief 81 police to
rigidy enforce the ordinance which torbids splitting on
the sidewalks. The ordinance is year Old and for
time after Its passage the nuisance was abated Recently
the habit became obnoxious that the board Of health
took the matter up which resulted in the mayor taking
the action he did. Good for the mayor Of Tulsa!
An Oklahoma editor recently noticed several men were
in the habit Of sitting on one Of the principal bank cor
ners Of bis town. squirting tobacco juice all over the side
walk That evening the following appeared in his paper:
How long viii be sit in the warm March sun
And continue to spit like SOTO a-gun?"
The next day he received an snsre. presumably from
the cashier Of the bank which ra-l
you ask how long in The warm Marc. -un
WIN the spitters continue the task begun?
Allow me to say, I've observed their ways.
And they'll be there in March just 81 days
And when April showers gladden. the land
They'll all be found at the same old stand;
Nor win they quit with the month Of May
But they'll spit and spit til the judgment day
And the next day-but what's the use?
