CLEAN UP THE STREET

The attention of those in authority
Is called to the bad condition of
the street along the south side of the
new pOstoffice building and the vacant
lots in front of the building. Much of
the litter is the remains of old build
ings formerly on the lots and the
cleaning up of the government build
ing grounds and part of it, we are
told, has been sold to private indi-
viduals for wood. The city should at
once enforce the ordinance covering
the cleaning up of vacant lots.
Some provision should be made for
paving the street and properly drain
ing it from Magnolia across to Main
and on to OsCeola street distance
of two blocks. The street facing the
federal property on the south should
at least be paved with lime and We
think it would be a fine investment to
both the city and the property owners
to pave this particular block with Wit
rified brick and settle the matter for
good. 1t will be a fitting finish to the
beautiful building and certainly would
greatly enhance the values of the va
cant poperty in front soon to be built
upOn.
