Fast driving of gasoline bug
gles in Honsdale by reckless
chauffers and intoxicated owners
will be a perilous pastime in the
Maple City if the efforts of a com
mittee consisting of John Erik and
c. E. Bates who were appointed at
the regular meeting of the Business
Mems Association Wednesday even
ing in city hall, to wait on the May
or and Town Council about this
daily infringement of the borough
ordinance are successful. There is
nothing which so arouses feeling as
the daredevil performances of the
owners of motor cars who run their
machines with no regard at all for
the rights of pedestrians. A new
member was received at this meet
ing of the Association and it was
decided to boom the Business Mems
excursion to Lake Lodore August 80,
for all it was worth.
