VALUE OF STREET LIGHTING

To the Signal

Permit me to occupy Just little
Of your valuable space to call atton-
ton to one OF snyaer's most crying
needs. II would be impossible to
onumcrato all those things which are
needed to make snyder the city It ia
destined to be, but there ia one thing
which should concern ms most grave
| ly. refer to the matter of street
lighting Don't you think we could
improve a little along this line? This
thought is dropped here. not for the
purpose of inducing more thought,
for surely this matter has been given
the thought Of our best men. We have
had thought a plenty and the hope
which now inspires this letter is that
some OF our best thinkers will be
stirred to action.
A story Is told Of a Confederate
general who when about to make an
attack on the enemy. gave instruc-
lions to a subordinate to charge with
his force at a certain time and place.
When the battle had begun to roar
and this particular time had passed,
the general noticed that there had
been no response from the guns Of
the subordinate troops lie immed
ltely dispatched courier to ascor-
tain the trouble and when asked why
he hadn't attacked the subordinate
replied. 90 was iust thinking that Il
ought TO be done" when this news
reached The general he became indlg
nant and sent The courier back with
Instructions TO deliver this message.
we can never dislodge the enemy
with thoughts, what we need is ac-
. t.on Please charge as soon as you
have finished thinking
We have boon thinking of this and
other important matters In Snyder
for long time, now let us make the
charge Let's improve and thorough
ly modcrnlz, what town we have be-
fore we go In for more town. True,
we ARE an Interested in growth and
development but It should not be alb
normal. Man would be- In pretty
plight If he should grow to full size
within year after birth and then
I try to develop the mental faculties
later. The mind Of the child must be
trained and educated according TO the
growth Of It's body. So II is with cit
les. Let us see to II that we improve
as we expand one Of the soddcst
sights In this world is % great big
oyerFrown town with none Of those
things which make for the pleasure
and comfort of lts people
Nothing could add more to the ap.
lpcarancc OF any town than wen light
ed streets. besides they are % great
and lasting convenience
Snyder is an right so far as her
public square is concerned but out
side of this the town ls almost I'm
