PITTING in public is not a pretty habit, and, what is more, it is one of the most prolific means known of spreading colds, influenza and kindred ills. Dr: ’ Hiram M. Read, city health officer, has declared open war on the persons who violate the laws against the practice. The penalty is a fine of from $5 to $100, or not more than 30 days in jail, or both. But that should not be the chief deterrent. Spitting in public is an inexcusable anti-social practice. eee Te Ee WILD BOYS PROWL STREETS! | Inadequate State Law Dooms Juvenile Castaways: aaa oad HOME Tl The Star Goes Into 11,727 More Homes Every Day Than Any Other Seattle Newspaper, Batered as Second Clase Matter May &, 1699, at the Postoffics at Seattin Wash, under the Act of Congress March &, 1878, Per Year, by Mall, $6 to $9 — ‘TWO CENTS IN SEATTLE , WASH., THURSDAY, ‘BRUARY 16, 1922., pet. i.
