CHICKENS DESTROY
 MANY FLOWER BEDS
City Beautiful Club and Graphic Re- cei,e Complaints From Many Who
 Would Peau:ify Their Yards.

Members of the City Beautiful Club have been receiving numerous com plaints recently from residents who are endeavoring to beautify their yards by planting flowers about the chickens belonging to nelghbors. Many carefully prepared flower beGs have been ruthlessly destroyed by the fowls and those making the com plaints say that there seems to be no effort on the part of the owners Of the chickens to keep them at home.
 The Graphic has also received com plaints in this direction. but the on ly hope for a remedy is to induce the chicken owners to become pubic spirited enough and imbued with enough civic pride to reduce the size of their chicken yards to their own premises.

MT. Sawyer, of Garland, has been one of the ablest advocates of the bill, while Judge Sain, has opposed it with all the vigor at his command, declaring that there is at least one member of the house who will never vote for a bond issue, and that is J.

Washington, March 5-When Thom- as R.
