PUBLIC SERVICE
ERRORS
Too Many of Them to Suit the
Public.

II the City Department Of Public
Service ever gets through sharpening
its teeth It should look after the
street signs placed at intersections.
Hundreds of them are misspelled.
Many of them are misleading.
South Wells street at 51st street Is
still named on the sign ut that cor
ner, S. 9Th avenue.
Sedgwick street is misspelled
Sedgewick street on all signs.
Tooker place, called after DR..
Tooker, the Chicago inventor OF the
Keyless fire alarm box, is misspelled
Tucker place.
And so 1t goes all over the city.
Inspecting smokes Is evidently
easier than inspecting some kinds OF
public utilities.
