The Jacksonville Observer IS kick
ing on billboards. The billboard is
a nuisance. a blot ON the scenery and
. sore to the eye The only business
that has any right to have billboard
is a theater, and that ON its own
building. The Star recommends that
the county commissioners and city
council have all others reduced to
firewood and used in the courthouse
and city hall. If all billboards in this
county were destroyed it would give
Marion an enviable distinction among
the counties of the nation.
