PREPARING TO ENFORCE
THE HITcHiNG ORDINANCE

Jim tPinson and w. J.. Jones have
started the work of setting hitching
posts in various places handy to the
business part of town, and when their
work is completed the officers will
enforce the new ordinance which pro-
hibits hitching on Main street. AS a
help to those who are forgetful, all
the cement sidewalks on Main will
be removed. When the posts are set
the people will nave to get into the
habit of hitching on the side streets,
for the ordinance is going to be en-
forced. This statement m from
an official source A row of posts has
een set on west Third street, across
from the Carnegie library. Others
will follow on Richardson avenue,
across from The GiIkeson, on east
Second and various other places. The
county court has promised to set
posts and connect them with chain
all along the south side of the court
house block. If more hitching places
are found necessary they will be pro-
vided.
When the hitching on Main has
stopped, the waIlows and stamp
holes will be filled and the cutters be |
brought to a grade with the hope |
that there will be no more mudholes |
in the silly season labeled "No swim
ming" mo Boating" etc.
