We drove under a sand-blast operation, where the particles of silica rained upon the roof of the car, whirled against the windshield, and swooped through the open window to find lodgment in our eyes. We drove pust new buildings in the process of where stagings had push- ed sidewalks into the street and trucks lurked under the ready to jump out whenever an- other car tried to pass.

Tt the requested co-operation on | the part of the board of polic commissioners to the end that falls on defective sidewalks about the city may be reduced to as near the zero mark as possible, has the ef fect of repairing even one danger- ous spot and thereby preciuding an | accident, it will have proved worth | while. The common council, on | s cor mittee, taken the step th should have been taken a long tir ago, and it is hoped the police de- pariment will respond without fu ther urging, by reporting dangeron conditions to the public works de- partmnt and the ward aldermen. It is the duty of policemen to re port such conditions, hut apparent- | Iy they have not donc so, or else | they have not seen their reports act ed on, for any pedestrian need not | leave the street he lives on to find irrezular flags, holes in the walks or other similar conditions that are not only unsightly but very danger- | saturday ous. - Along Main street, dozens of such places exist. Right on Com- | mercial street, within a few score yards of the police station, the flag | walk is in such condition that it.is | remarkable that someone has not been injured by being thrown after ! tripping. On Church street, which | is heavily traveled day and night, some flags are at least an fnch higher than others, and the same is true in many other places, yet no move is made to do the simple re- pairs necessary. Icy sidewalks, of course, <cause more accidents than defective walks, but it is far more difficult to pre- clude them than it is to guard agalnst accidents because of the lat- ter. Property owners frequently find it well nigh impossible to keep their walks clear of ice and snow, but there is no good excuse for al- lowing raised and broken flags to continue in place year after year, It is characteristic of the human element in the situation that after accidents occur and injuries and ex- penses follow, haste 13 made to re- pair the walks. Now with the pol- licemen on patrol duty expected to keep their eyes peeled for all danger spots, and with reports soon going into the various aldermen as well.as to the public works department, a decided improvement should result. ‘Whether or not the number of ac- cidentg will decrease, remains to be seen, 7 It you have a son or daughter who is preparing for a musical career don’t mind protests from tha neighbors.
