his fellow lawmakers began to shiver
when he mentioned the word dim

Last night tried to ride my wheel
down Main street, but the glare of the
automobile lights was SO binding de-
cided the safest thing for me to do
was to walk. Now, in my opinion, the

sense to know when light is dim
or is glazing. but II the police can't
make such . distinction it II time for
some one that can to take them out
and give EN- few lessons"
Recalling the fact that several

had been made for alleged violations
of the ordinance, and each case had
been appealed, a committee of council

that he had time and again tried to
