THE BILL BOARD NUISANCE

"a u OVER the world the bill board is in A bad odor. Municipal governments are trying to be rid of them. They are blotches on the landscape. They injure property in the rseighborlloods where they are erected, become shelters for nuisances, and offend the eye.
 If anything is to be done to make Bridge port pleasant city to look at, something will have to be done about the billboard nuisance The matter should be handled Dy ordinance and the ordinances should go the limit permitted by state laws and the constitution. proof aeroplane2

HE HAS THE GAR; WHY KICK?

rT-HERE IS AN old reliable story that has 1 been told to generations of men. The tale runs to the effect that Finnegan asked for drink, whereupon the bartender called up to the proprietor, aIs Finnegan good for drink P Has he had 1t? He has, He is.''
 It appears that the director of public works HAS his fine, costly and luxurious car, for which the city has paid several thousand dol lars. This would seem to close the discussion.
 Nothing is too good for those who hold pub lie jobs. Money is coming easy and going easy. The public employer is setting an example to the private employer.
 Presently there will be costly motors and champagne for everybody.
 Setting an example is, to be sree, expensive for the taxpayers, but who cares about the tax payers They can charge it to the rent payers, and nobody ever did consider them.

HOLY GRAIL IS BROKEN BEYOND
 HOPE OF REPAIR

Rome, May 9.-Both religious de- voices and art lovers have learned with regret that the recent reports of the breaking of the Holy Grail beyond repair at the Cathedral or Genoa are true, although satisfactory explanations of the accident are still lacking. One expert who ascrfbed the breaking of the ancient basin to dampness in the cathedral is popu- larly suspected of shielding someone who accidentally broke the vessel.
 While it is doubtful that this basin is really the sacred cup around which so much legendary romance of knighthoodz days was woven, it has been accepted as such by a, large number of Catholics.
