We would like to call the parents
attention to the practice of their
children and some young boys who
are not in school, of shooting fire
works on the school campus and in
the city limits. We all know this
against the law, as we'll as bad for
the community moral. In fact, it
is an unWise practice. This also
endangers the lives of pedestrians
on the streets, or anyone who may
come in contact with the explosion
OF fireworks. We have observed
that many children who did not have
sufficient clothing to wear to school,
and who are malnutritioned, are
spending money for fireworks that
do not result in any value to them.
We all know that this should not
be. We are asking the colored citi-
zens to cooperate with legal author
tiles and law abiding citizens of this
city in order to curtail this sort of
dangerous and destructable practice.
