just a Few Words Of Explanation
Regarding the So-called
Screen Ordinance.

Most people and among them
some OF the saloonkeepers have a
misapprehension regarding the So
called screen ordinance, believing
that it requires all screens to be
moved. That is not so, the glass
in front must be clear and trans
parent so as to allow clear and
unobstructed view when the
screens are moved, but a screen
six feet wide and six feet high is
allowed to be placed at the end
of the bar 10 hours a day; that is,
from 5 a. m. to IL p. M, and moved
at time of closing and a light left
burning at night so that any one
may see that all is quiet and or
derly. This would show good
faith on the part Of the saloon
keeper and would be rather to his
advantage than otherwise.
The fronts are not required to
be remodeled where the glass is
clear. Therefore, the expense to
the owner of the building is not
what is represented by many who

that people can see a man when.

DR.. j. I. Morrow, former pastor
of st. Peters A. M. e. church in
Decatur, but now of Peoria, was
visited last week by a Forum cor
respondent. DR.. Morrow seems to
be settling down to business in his
new home. Following several
weeks hard and constant prepara-
ton, the parsonage which has
housed many a minister in its day
has been put partly in condition,
so that it is now reasonably safe
to live in. The little red brick
church which has stood on the cor
ner since it was first erected in
1887, still stands there, in all its
paternal reverence, from the out
side, relic of "ye olden days"
yet one entering the old landmark
instantly changes his attitude.
Well scrubbed floors and beautiful
rugs, brand new pews and excel
lent plumbing and papering. In
fact, all that the $500 borrowed
by the former pastor, Mr.. JAM
eson, can make it. The most beau
tiful and excellent colored church
windows, which were donated by
the different well wishers of the
organization, make very fine i'm
preston. OF course $500 debt
is quite a burden to new minis
ter, but with the help of the good
people of which Peoria is noted,
he may pull load, somehow. Rev.
Jameson, who spends three or
four days each week in Peoria, is
now pastor of the charge from
which DIR. Morrow resigned.
The much talked-of Y. M. C. A.
has not materialized in Peoria
yet. But the people are very
hopeful and anxious. A tentative
organization exists, but no per-
manent arrangements have yet
been made. At meeting in the
old Jewish synagogue some days
ago the plans were discussed, but
nothing has yet been accomplish
ed. 1t is to be hoped that such
an organization will gain such i'm
petus that one in reality will soon
materialize.
