SIGNBOARDS MUST GO ON
PABLO BEACH HIGHWAY

Jacksonville, August 15.-The
scenery effacing signboards along
the Pablo Beach highway must go or
be moved fifty feet from the road,
the county commission has decreed
in its Identification mood. The COM
mission intends to make the road
soothing to the eye, even the "perma-
manent wave" in the road itself is
going.
The commission says it's poor adj
vertising, anyway, to flaunt your
wares before the motorist by means
of an ugly display that shoves ma
lures own to the background These
signs that attempt to inform the mo-
torist how far he is from his goal are
misleading, too, it is argued. In three
instances, it is pointed out, the signs
advertising different trades disagree
on the distance by four to ten miles.
There will be no special dispensa-
ton, either, for the restaurant keep
er at Pablo Beach, who frankly adj
mitS on the glazing sign halfway be-
tween the beach and Jacksonville
that he does not know who is the best
swimmer at the beach, but he is well
informed in the matter of eating.

which He made a Scab.

A scab is a two-legged animal with
a corkscrew soul, water-sogged
brain, combination backbone made
of jelly and glue. Where others have
their heart he carries a tumor of rot
ten principle.
When the scab comes down the
street, honest men turn their backs
and the angels weep tears in heaven,
and the devil shuts the gates Of hell
to keep him out. No man has a
right to scab as long as there is a
|, pool of water deep enough to drown
his body in, or a rope long enough to
hang his carcass with.
Jula; Lscariot was gentleman
compared with a scab, for after be-
traying his Master, he had enough
character to hang himself; and scab

THE NEW JUSTICE.

That Maiden, Mass, Judge who
made the short-weighted ice man
deliver ice free till September to the
families he had been cheating, gets
a rousing cheer from every house
wife who reads the good tidings. 1t
was the same judge-his name is
Thomas P. Riley, and long be his
fame who ordered the dealer who
had been taking the cream off his
milk to serve his patrons with whole
milk, free, for a week.
A few more decisions like this all
over the COMMUNICATIONS which
mean something, decisions in which
kene shears of common sense cut
through the tangles of red tape
and our chief justices will no longer
need to go abroad to learn how to
simplify legal procedure.
/ The way to simplify procedure is
to make procedure simple. The way
to get thing done is to do it. The
way to get honest weights is to
make cheaters give measure pressed
down and running over.
/ But let this not be taken by cheat
housewives as a hint towards an easy
way to get free ice. Justice may be
blind, but she puts as much in one
pan of her scales as in the other.
