tinued to carry on their business Just

Councilman Faulkner wanted to
know why the police department did
not enforce the law. He eaid there
have been severai new busincas houses
opened up here and they have not
secured the required city license to do
buplncss.
Councilman Murray did not think Il
was the intention OF tho Council to
I've hard on anyone and that they felt
all should hc given ample opportunity.
Ito said the fellow just starting In
business could very we'll bc shown
some icniency.
Councilman McNabb, speaking
about contractors. thought the law
was at fault where It requires the
owner who In to have the building
done 10 secure the permit for same
from the building inspector. He ex-
pressed tho opinion that the contrac-
TOT DOING the work should be required
To take out the permit. lie spoke in
the connection OF tho fact that where
an owner has not paid HIS city taxes
no permits for new building opera
tions IN connection with the property
ON which the taxes have not been paid
can be issued.
MIR. McManus told the members the
police department now has In its pos
scssion u list of 100 names OF various
business individuals and concerns
who have not taken out their city
licenses To carry ON their particular
lines OF business and II the police de-
rartment does not enforce the law
relative To tho payment of this license
foe then tho Council will seek the
power To enforce collection and II
srant~d Will proceed TO do 30.
MIR. Murray explained that by his
former remarks he did not mean that
anyone should be allowed TO escape
without paying. He thought the biz
business concerns that are able to pay
should lie made To pay ~ once but
that they could be more lcnicnt with
tho little fellow but insist on payment
by him some time.
For the present nothing definite was
decided. the Council simply waiting
now FOR whatever action the police
department proposes taking. There
VIII be another delinquent list ready
next week and the complete list OF all
those who have not by that time made
settlement with the city will be made

Experience Is Sometimes
Too Good q Teacher

Strangely, too much experience often
suits in the same thing as too little experience
in driving--a rejection of the application.
Just as there is the overwrought, nervous
type Of applicant, so also there is the over
confident person who has driven thou
sands of miles, and who is calmly competent.
He is incredulous when the examiner tells
him he will be refused license, and that he
must go through the fornality of making an
other application and taking another test.
"The trouble with you is,' he will be told,
chat you have had too much experience. Be-
i,iss an old driver, you forget that you are be-
ing observed by somebody who is bound to 90
only by the performance which he witnesses.

Among Those Present Are
Sidewalk Notaries

One of the most-arrested Of the peripatetic
notaries is "Suspender jack McGee. "Sus-
pender Jack, ,"/who is one of the picturesque
characters of what is known in reportorial
parlance as the West Side court district, is
proud of the number of times he has been dis
charged by magistrates who have found evil
dence against him insufficient. "Suspender
Jack" claims that there is irregularity in
the work of himself or his confreres.
"We have to watch ourselves closely" says
he. I'VE are regularly authorized notaries,
and if we were to overcharge or do anything
ont of the ordinary q complaint would be
lodged against us and we'd lose our licenses.
But that doesn't mean that queer things don't
happen around here. / remember once, when
there was a big jam Of people waiting to file
their papers, some man walked in among them,
