BOARD WILL NOT
MOVE The DUCK SHED
Objections of the HomeWood
People Will Not Avail
Them Anything.

Unless there is a more formidable
protest in the issue between Home
wood residents and Peter Fox, the park
superintendent in the matter of 1oca-
ton of the duck shed in Harrison Park,
the board of public works will consider
the whole matter a closed incident As
the situation now is, the shed occupies
a conspicuous place on the island In
the north lagoon. having been placed
there by Supt. Fox, as he says, at the re-
quest of number of some of Webb
street citizens who contributed toward
the purchase of ducks and swans. 9th
err residents OF Homewood who have
also contributed are making strenuous
objection on the ground that the duck
shed and the wire fence detract from
the appearance of the island and be-
cause Fox was not authorized to put
the shed where he did. Adam r. Ebert,
president of the board of public works.
said today:
The board did not meet nor was
there ever any meeting set for last
night to discuss that question. The fact
of the matter is Mr.. Fox put up the
shed on the north island while we
thought he would put it on the other
one. He has told us that he did this
in compliance with the wishes of some
Webb street property owners. If the
people object TO having it there. why
1t will be a simple matter to move it.
but 1T is up now and cannot be moved
unless taken apart. Therefore. we have
decided TO leave il where it is"
The whole matter revolves on the
point: rs Fox law unto HIMSELF"
