 TAKE CHANCE

With the coming of warm weather there is a chance for the pedestrian on some of the main streets, and particularly those streets which have large buildings on them, to receive serious injury from falling icicles and frozen snow.
 On some of the main buildings of the town may be seen immense, long icicles weighing many pounds hanging from the caves of the build. ings which only require little more warm weather to fall on the unsuspecting passerby. AS a precau- tionary measure there have been warning signs placed on boards at either end of the building occupied by the post office with the word Danger" placed thereon, which have been the means of saving some passersby from receiving serious in jury from the hanging ice, which Is constantly falling.
