IRON BILL BOARDS
 ABOUT THE CITY Will Replace the Old Wooden Ones Of Tidy Appearance.

On North Main street the old wood en billboard that for long stood on the shelf of land just north of the Cliff terrace entrance has been replaced by a sheet iron board which is to be the precursor of a similar change to be made in the other billboards about the city owned by the advertising com pany The greatly improved appear ance will be something that will be Welcomed by the City Beautiful as sociation, which has found the bill- boards objects of criticism as far as their tidy appearance went.
 The association will also welcome the statement of the advertising com pany, made by it's local manager, James Neeson, that in the future par ticuIar attention is to be paid to clear ing up the immediate vicinity of the billboards of the loose and torn paper that frequently gathers there. With the new sheet iron boards the posters will stick much better and will not be so likely to come off after every rain. as was the case with the old wooden boards.
