Loeb Lynn POstOfiice

Lynn as against, the Office just across
the tracks. We mentioned the names
of John Ream, Buddy Weeks, Charlie
Martin and Ben Harvey, not with any
idea of committing them in favor of
the proposition, but. simply as an il
lustration of the type Of solid citi-
zens whom we would dislike to oppose
in any effort sponsored by Loeb Lynn.
Unfortunately we. were not clear in
our English and pur good intentions
went haywire. We here bend the knee
of humble apology! to our good and
true friends. rub ~ =
However, we understand the propo-
nents of the proposition are still max
ing the effort tolland a postofice, but
the house across the way is divided
against itself and the brethren are not
all of one accord. It is minated that
some of them will be satisfied if free
delivery service can be. secured. If
they succeed in getting Uncle Sam to
increase his deficit even to that small
extent we will take of, our hats to
Mayor Hardesty.ili ~
Personally land. without the sane
ton in thus saying Of this paper or
anyone else) we are committed to the
idea that both villages should operate
under one charter.
Now we hope we have not started
any fireworks and that we will not
have to apologize for that observa-
tion.
1t is a fact, however, that the sue
cess of Mountain Lake Park is the
success of Loeb Lynn.
New Voting Precinct
While we have not been able to con-
firm the report, yet it is current that
a new election precinct has been Gre
ated in Election District No. z with
the voting place in Loeb Lynn.
While our opinion may be of little
value we have always thought, and
still think that the voting place should
be located in the Park. However, if it
has been decided, otherwise, there is
no great kick coming.
New Councilman Selected
At the last meeting of the Town
Council of the Park, John Hipsley was
elected to fill the vacancy in that body
caused by the resignation and subse-
quent elevation to the Office of Mayor
of Mr.. F. R. Utterback. There were
two names presented to the council.
Gay Hayden, who was high man of the
defeated candidates at the last Au-
gust election, and Mr.. Hipsley. On a
call of the members of council, Messrs.
Camden, Schrock and Schooley voted
for Hipsley and Mr.. Elliott cast his
ballot for Mr.. Hayden, whom he had
placed in nomination. Hipsley was
consequently declared elected. AS the
latter was bailiff, his electice to the
council will necessitate the appoint
ment of some one to that Office in his
place. ........
. The Poultry Ordinance
1t may be we'll to call the attention
of poultry owners that under the town
ordinances it is unlawful to permit
chickens to run at, large or to tres
pass on the property of another, be-
tween the first day of May and the
first day of October. Many residents
are beginning to get their flower beds
in shape for planting and complaints
are already being lodged with the
town authorities.
Streets in Good Condition
The streets and roads Of the Pork
are in fine condition for this time of
year. There are few stretches, how
ever, that need grading and repairing
in order to put them in good trim for
the summer. .
