"Safety First"

1t has been recalled that few
years ago the old picket fence be-
tween the school and court house
grounds was giving nervous persons
some concern. School children were
in the habit of throwing themselves
over the fence hurriedly, as children
might be expected to do. This "got
on the nerves" of some who lived in
the vicinity and witnessed the fence
scaling daily. They insisted the
fence should be taken down, but they
We're unable to impress the public.
The fence had stood there for years
and years and nobody had been hurt.
Then why get excited? The fence
was allowed to remain until a boy
was MORALLY wounded upon it and
received injuries from which he died.
The fence was then torn down. This
is only another instance of locking
the barn door after the horse was
stolen. While there may be slight
danger of any accident because OF
the unsafe condition of the old north
central school building, nobody is
licensed to condem parents for feel
ing as they do and for petitioning
the board to discontinue holding
school therein.

Rolfe to Play Seeley
In Bellaire Finals

BELLA1RE HEIGHTS, Fla, Jan. "a
r. T. Rolfe, Of Chicago, and W. P.
Seeley, of Brooklawn, will be the final
ists in the annual January tournament
being played here.
Preston could not keep his game in
tact to-day and was rather easy vic
tim for his opponent in the semi-finals.
If the veteran was nervous his long
game did not show it, but he developed
an unmistakable weakness on the put
ting greens, and this was responsible
for his downfall. Up to the ninth hole
it was an even battle, with little to
choose from. The Chicago man was I
up at the turn, but ne did not look par
ticularly dangerous. Preston, however.
lost the tenth and eleventh when his
puts failed him, and with the tide of
the battle turned against him he was
unable to come back.
