CLOSING DOWN
DOES NOT, PAY AND PROPOSES
TO ADOPT HOT PEPPER"

Corporation Judge Celaya has always
been noted for his lenicncy toward Of
tenders and he HIS made it a practice
to put the least possible hardship On
Il MAI under arrest for Whatsoever
charge He has come to the opinion
that lcniency does not pay and states
that he is going to try and see what
popping it to them will do. He says:
Fl have tried to be good to offenders
and deal as easily with them as the law
will permit me. but | find that it does
no good. They seem to think more of
the law if | place q stiff fine against
them and make it cost them something
to cyadc or break the law.
Il have learned the lesson that the
better YOU are to Il man from the stand
point of a Judge. the worse he is to YOU
from the standpoint Of an offender. /
have stopped turning them off with q
lecture and am going to evoke a respect
for the law by letting them feel the
weight of it. | find that | get along
better with them and they get along bet
ter after they have found out that every
violation has 4 penalty attached in
stead Of i gentle lecture. No more
l~enicncy for me-"
OF course the judge did not mean that
he would not show lcnicncy in many
eases such as he does now. He means
that he Will knuckle down Il little har-
der on confirmed offenders and make
them pay the penalty.

THE ALAMO.

They are about to begin work rcstor-

to be any help for it either in Texas or
anywhere else. Why not leave it alone?

it is the most impressive historical rel
lie on American soil. What Texan wants
to see any alteration in il now? OF
course il should not be allowed to fall
to ruin. Any defect III wall, foundation
or roof should be repaired promptly yet
always with an eye to the prese-
walton of it as it is. What we
want is to 90 and see the
room where Bowe died; the angle where
Crockett fell; the dirt floor where Tray
is drew the line with his Sword.-the
line that represented certain death on
one side of it, and possible life remote
lv possible life on the other side of 1t.
We want to stand in the twilight OF
the place and picture TO ourselves those
heroes in buckskin and homcspum each

We want to picture the cheerful Davy
Crockett. leaning n~oncha'antly OH his

What else or what better can any res

THE CITY BEAUTIFUL
By Leo |. Redding.

Is your Town tQe most beautiful

On, yes, / know ID about that good
old sentiment, there is no place like
home.2 There isn't, either.
When first went home after hav'
ing been away ten years tie old place
fairly blistered my eyes with its beau

with lump in my throat and my
heart pounding in gIadnead.
Then one morning discovered thai
the Whitewater had shrunk from a
'tu1BuIant river to babbIing brook
Main street instead Of being Il broad
avenue was narrow street, dirty and
unloyely. Even the congregational
church was small and much in need OF
paint. The old mill in which the
wheels long ago ceased to turn was
not even picturesque ruin.
To me there is no other spo. on
earth so beautiful as my Town, but I
view it in the pale moonlight Of my
Imagination. know that il isn't what
it should be.
la,And 50 it is with your Town. Now
let me ask you just one question:
why not?"
There is no good reason why your
Town and every part OF it should not
be as attractive TO the unpreiudicGd
eyes of the casuel visitor as the Gar
den Cities" OF England. There is no
good reason why yours should not be
one of the model towns.
It wasn't many years ago that Clevc'
land was notorious for its general aiI-
pearance OF squalor and disorder. Its
lake front was its disgrace.
There was one thing about Cleve'
land even. at that time that gave hope,
1t knew its own faiings.
The Chamber OF Commerce took the
matter in hand and started move.

result is that today Cleveland Is as
famed for its cleanliness and beauty
as it once was notorious for its dirt
and ugliness.
Akron is another Ohio city that has
built along well.planned lines and has

Who hasn't heard OF the beauties OF
