Items Current opinion locally
is that the proper authorities fail
ed to enforce the ordinance having
to do with snow removal from
sidewalks. The ordinance on this
subject is not unreasonable. It
provides that snow is to be remov-
ed from the sidewalks within six
hours after snowfall ends. Most
residents cheerfully comply with
the snow removal requirement and
by so doing show themselves to be
good citizens. There are some who
ignore their responsibilities. Snow
left untouched on pavements, u.s.
ually turn to ice, involves serious
-ngers. A campaign by the town
authorities, punctuated when nee
essary by fines, could reduce to a
minimum what becomes a nuisance
after every storm, but it will take
consistent official action to get re-
sults.-The regular monthly meet
ing of the Clayton P.T,A., which
was postponed on January 18th
will be held Wednesday evening,
January 9th at s o'clock in the
school cafeteria. There will be a
panel discussion on PTA Commun-
ity Relationships. A prize will be
given the room having the largest
percentage of parents present. Re-
freshments will be served. - Mr.,
