There exists confusion of thought
between taking counsel and relying on

from his own point OF view or from

friends and increased his information,
then, if strong and wise, he thinks for
himself and steers mis- W course.

THAT MARKET T

Several sites for a market place have
been offered to the city. Only one, the
Early site is offered as a permanent
location, the others being offered as
temporary locations, until the market
proposition a be thoroughly tested
out.
To purchase a site outright and put
UP a permanent market would involve
the expenditure of a large sum of
money, and some Of the commission
ers feel that until the Ilan has been
thoroughly tested, it would be unwise
to sink a large amount of money in
the venture. They believe that for two
or three years the market will he in 4

the market gardeners are learning to
make use of 1t.

Of but a few hundred dollars.

stub of Fifth street north. between N.
P venue and the n. p. tracks but it
vas found that the street could not be
used for this purpose, therefore, if the

carried out, some other site must be
selected.

generously offered to donate for this
purpose, the vacant lot back of the

strength is that it protects the individ-
