A subscriber has again called
our attention to the fact that
too, few residences in Hardin
are marked with house num-
bers.
The situation was pointed up
to this subscriber recently by a
stranger in Hardin who was
seeking the home of a certain
citizen. The visitor remarked
about the new street signs and
how well the streets were mark
ed and laid out. He was slightly
irked, however, because so few
of the houses were numbered.
We think he had just cause for
being disguised. -.
On checking up. we find that
the house number OF only about
go residents in Fardin are list
ed In the local telephone direct
ory The new street signs have
been up for some time now an6

owTl.rs to call at the city hall
with their lot, block number

horse numbers can be issued,
but the response has not been
encouraging and officials are

We hope that before another
telephone directory for Hardin
is printed every house in the
civ will have secured a number
and can be listed in the direc-
tors.
