A REAL SAMARITAN

Paris is blessed with real true
Good Samaritan in the person of
Mrs. Harriet Minaker, Visiting
Nurse for the Bourbon County
Health and Welfare League. A few
days ago Mrs. Minaker learned that
William Brophy and six Of his chill
dren, residing near Paris, were ill
with pneumonia. She started in her
auto to visit them, but found the
road from the pike to the home in
such bad condition that she could
not reach the house. Parking her
machine on the roadside, she walked
mile through the mud and slush
to the home. There she found one
of the children, nine-year-Old girl,
seriously ill. She wrapped the child
in a blanket and carried her in her
arms to the auto, bringing her to
the Massie Memorial Hospital in this
city. The child was given medical
attention, and is now on the road to
recovery. Other members of the
family are improving also.

TREE PRUNING TO MAKE PARIS
CITY BEAUTIFUL"

At one of the recent meetings of
the Paris Commercial Club, it was
said by retiring Secretay, Mr.. w. E.
| Hacker, that the statement had been
made at his office by a person who
has occasion to visit all of the Blue
Grass towns, "that it looked like
Paris was going to seed.',
1t would seem that such unfavor-
able comments as this would put us
to thinking and looking about to as
certain what could be done with the
least effort and expense to improve
the general appearance of our town,
thereby creating a more favorable
impression on those who have oc-
casion to visit us.
THE NEWS man has just made a
little survey of Paris, as we'll as sew
eral other towns Of the same class,
and from observation, we believe just
at this time of the year if all prop
erty owners would make a thorough
inspection and study of their shade
trees along streets and lawns they
would find much needed attention to
these trees in the way of pruning,
cutting back, cleaning out all dead
parts, and removing entirely all old
worthless dead trees, which are not
only an eye-sore to the public, but are
detrimental to streets, pavements and
sewers.
Now is the time of year to handle
the tree question. This responsible
ity rests with the property owners,
unless the neglect continues until the
city authorities are forced to take
some action in the matter.
Of course, the time will come
few months later for the city to get
busy, and take care of some other
matters in the way of repairing and
leaning streets. We are sure this
will have prompt attention when the
time homes, but let property owners
take advantage of the season and at
tend to trees right now.
