For Fire Protection

The town board says that all places
must be provided with ashpits or
ashcans. That means more trouble,
as the officer who can enforce such
a rule In town covering as much
territory as this needs about eleven
pairs of eyes and capable OF being
at 'steen different places at one and
the same time. He should be on
duty at least thirty-six hours a day.
There is an ashpile back OF The
Herald Office which indicates It has
been carefully added to for about
seven years. Now all that labor is
liable to be lost. At our home we
have done our bit In aiding neigh
bors to fill settled sewer ditch in
an alley near so those taking a
chance on driving down said alley
may not be dumped against fence.
We believe the neighbors will be a
unit In the position that the said
ditch will not be properly filed until
about the time to take down stoves
when the roses come again.
However. It is dangerous prac-
tice to dump ashes anywhere. and
the quicker such is stopped the soon.
