The Vineyard Wotkers of the Cen- tral Baptist Marion Powe Monday HE RING ON OVERHANGING SIGNS S Realizing the fact that some of the overhead signs, although contrary to the ordinance, but represent to the owners a substantial sum and which are safe and unobjectionable and are & W the public, Mayor Allyn Brown & hearing in the council chamber on Tuesday évening at 8.15 o'clock for the purpose of trying to find ‘& solution as to whether those signs should be left and the others done a‘ns “with. Mayor explained the situation and spoke as follows: Gentlemen: —Soon after I took officd last June my attention was called to the fact that there were many over- banging eigns being maintained in the city streets contrary to the exist- ing ordinances. I took considerable mnlmeumlnelhfllmonth terent streets and came to the con- clusion that by far the greater num- ber of theni were not-only being main- tained contrary to tie ordinances but were actually either dangerous to the traveling c _or objectionable for some other reason. So far as I could learn, no proper permit had been given for the &rection of the few signs which were perhaps unobjectionable. Even if if there had been such a permit in the past, I take it that under the ordinance it would be for the present street com- missioner to say whether they might be_continued. In an effort to get rid of the obfec- tionable signs, it seemed to me after REGULAR MEETING OF ART STUDENTS’ ASSOCIATION. Attractive Program Arranged for the Winter Months. The regular monthly business méet- Ing of the Art Students' association was held in Slater hall annex Tuesday evening., the president, Miss Lucas, presiding. The secretary’s and treas- urer's reporcs were read and reports from the chsirmen of various commit- tees were heard. Mrs. Leopold Aarents was voted a member. The program committee reported that at the next meeting, the second Monday in Janu- ary, Frank Hale, well known for his remarkable and artistic work in jewel- ry, will talk on this subject and will bring specimens of his art which wiil probably be on exhibition that after- noon and evening. It is expected that this lecture will be of great pubilc interest and therefore it will be open to the public for an admission fee. On the second Monday in March Miss Flint, head of the textile depdrt- ment of the Boston Museum of Fine Arts, will give a lecture in Slater hall on Oriental rugs. This will be illus- trated with stereopticon and is expect- ed t obe of unusual interest. This will nlso be an open lecture. - During the third week of February Ozias Dodge will give an exhibition of his etchings. This will afford a rare opportunity to his fellow townsmen of seeing this unusually Sne and unique collection. » After the adjournment of the busi- ness meeting a mock meeting was held which proved a most amusing and in- structive affair, albeit at times a trifle confusing, the chair being somewhat embarrassed by the burdensome amount of business presented at one and the same moment. After the meeting had edjourned to the next room most delicious refresh- ments were served by members of the ilsgvin i"avor of Allowing llluminated Signs. —_— Fellows—Sentiment of Meet- 52 some thought that perhaps the fairest way was to order all of the overhang- ing signs now maintained in violation of the ordinance to be removed, and I am convinced that this course would be legally correct. However, as you must realize, it is furthest from my purpose to do anything merely to ex- _ercise an arbitrary power, for all that I wish to do is to enforce the law in the way which will be for the best interest of the city. Therefore, # there is any way by which fairly and legally those signs which are safe and .unobjectionable can be left, and the others done away with, I be glad to - follow that course. It is to get any Information which you can give me to help to this end that I have invited you to meet with me at this time. If there is any- thing which the city government can do properly to encourage and assist, instead of hinder, the business inter- ests of the city, it will be done. I will therefore be very glad indeed to have the benefit of any information or suggestions which you care to give me at this time and in the light there. of reach the fairest possible conclu- eion under the provision of the law. There were five who appeared at the hearing and stated their views upon the matter and it was the general sen- timent of the meeting that the illu- minated_signs are safe and as they represent a substantial investment they ought to remain. o CLUB NIGHT AT THE ARCANUM CLUB Excellent Oyster Chowder Supper Served at 6.15 to Over 125 Club night at the Arcanum club was enjoyed by over 125 members on Tuesday evening.
