AT the last council meeting the
question of collecting the proper
license fee from certain peddlers who
regularly sell goods here was dis
cussed informally by the members
present. The ordinance providing
that such a license may be collected
has a certain clause exempting the
peddler when he is selling from
samples AS specific instance some
of the members cited the case of
certain man who sells dress goods in
Lancaster to the amount perhaps OF
thousands of dollars annually. 1t is
said he not only sells from samples
but carries his stock from door to
door and makes sales from that also.
He claims exemption under the ordl-
nance saying he sells from samples
only. 1t was not decided whether
any steps would be taken in the future
to collect such license money or not.

the annals of football at the state
