of rash judgement is altogether too

some who are 80 ungracious and

criticism and raah judgment do not
help the offender but shoves him
down. The Golden Rule should be

would have complaints to make
against such enforcement; but some
of them should receive this kind OF
attention
There is the ordinance requiring
the names of streets posted on the
corners in plain and permanent
fashion, and requiring houses to be
numbered This seems to have been
