BROWN Al.KS ON
COUNCIL S ACTION
BELIEVES OLD SHACK SHOULr
NOT HAVE BEEN ALLOWED
TO SEE SERVICE AGAIN.

Editor News: Having in mind the
Up Week, and wishing to be of is
much service as possible i'll this move
which | feel is cOmmenGable one,
l had prepared a resolution for the
approval or 1isapproval of the coua
Gil, effectually as follows: That tie
chief of poice be instructed to notify
all owners or lessees of all unsight.y
buildings ana stands of temporary
natOre within the fire limits on each
public street in the city, to remove
same or cause to be removed within
a period CT thirty days Preceding
this resolution was request from the
ladies' of the Y. w c.. A that they
be allowed the use of TIE wooden
snack which was temporarily used by
the National bank for their quarters
during the period of their remodelling
their own building. Officers of the
National We're given permission to
erect this temporary structure, which
was all very well, with the under
standing that same was to be pulled
down upon completion of their i'm
provements These improvements hav.
ing been competed it occurred to ne
that the building had served its pur
posoe and should now be removed
and thereby help improve the appear
ance of what I consider one of tie
ole hlyci CTR nfe
we have in the city. Hence the res
oution as above.
Now wish to say that in my hum
BILE opinion, the request from the Ia
dies of the Y. W. C. A., was full
Of the very best int2ntions. Theirs
is a noble cause E. I'd . doubt
However, to be perfc " frank with
all parties concerned. Relieve the
good ladies made a mistake in asking
the council for permiG ION to use this
particular building; farther believe
the council made a mis take in grant,
ing them this permission right off
the bat before first discussing the mat.
ter with them, especially with the
move OH lOOl " SiCdU up lHC CITY
And base by contentious on the fol,
lowing facts: When the period of time
allowed the ladies to use the building
in question expires, is it not natural
to suppose that some other organi
zation may ask council for the same
privileges extended the Y w. G.. A. 3?
Also is it not natural and very proba-
BILE that in as much as permission
was Granted the ladies of the Y. w.
C. A. the council would also grant
others the same privileges since none
of the members ] feel sure would
want 10 discriminate. Result: New
