The Wearing OF

Among the ancient heroes of the
church none enjoys q more genuine
popularity than st. Patrick. Those
who wear the green on his own day

Patrick's Day means something more
than the memory Of any one man.

left 1t Christian, founding 365 chur-
ches and baptlzing $4,000 people
with his own hands.
That indicates a man of tireless
energy. This quality has always
been an Irish characteristic. Very
few loafers are found among this
people. The first pioneers in their
migration to America lived the most
humble life. Wearing picturesque
red shirts. they built our railroads
while the old time Americans looked
on rather superciliously.
In spite Of all difficulties and
much toilsome labor. the Irish people
for many years came over in great
numbers. Their little homes were
usually surrounded by flowers. the

second. - an added police protec-
ton and precautlon. It was shown
that the elimination Of adequate
lighting increases accidents to citt-
Gems and either increases crime on
the street and burglaries in the
homes. or materially increases costs
Of police protection. It was plainly
pointed out that the small amount
of saving to be effected by any re-
duction in a community street light
ing system can be very easily offset
by serious accidents to citizens. and
by increase of crime. burglary and
increased cost of police protection.
A number Of Western cities were
Communicated with In Seattle, SDo-
kane, Portland. San Francisco, Los
Angeles, Denver. and other places.
and the answers received indicated
that the authorities in charge Of mu-
nicipal affairs in these cities consider
the maintenance Of adequate street
lighting highly essential and that no
move to cut down the number Of
lamps In operation will be given
consideration.
Another point that created . very
strong impression was the fact that
citizens affected BY q reduction in .
number Of street lamps In operation
don OF have their taxes decreased in
proportion to the decreased protec-
ton. which they receive.
A particularly strong protest was
sent in to the Salt Lake City Board
| OF Commissioners BY laboring organ
isations throughout the city. who
called attention to the fact that the
present IL time when all available
man power 10 needed in every COM
munity and that the hours Of work
Of many laboring people necessitates
their being on the streets at night.
when decreased street lighting would
constitute serious menace to their
personal safety.
Reports from many states else
where In the country indicate that
towns and rural communities are
abandoning all thought Of reduction
In street lighting as matter Of mu-
nicipal economy and are directing
their attention to other things In an
effort to operate to the greatest ad-
vantage during war time.

greasy salve and it does not stain. When
others fail it is the one dependable treat
ment for skin troubles of all kinds.
