the Centennial. activities to be
held there. Thoughtless persons,
with little respect for public prop-
erty, appreciation for the efforts
of others, or pride in the ap-
pearance of our park, have lit-
erally ploughed up the green sod
in some areas of the park with
cars. Too bad the culprits cannot
be put to work repairing the
damage they have caused.

people should take great care
when stepping out of doorways
on the main street. The side-
walks are still being used by
children on bicycles and sev-
eral people have narrowly es-
caped being hit when emerging
from stores, and even when walk-
ing along when a bicycle, opera-
ted by a somewhat inexperienced
ruder, has suddenly come up
behind them. Look carefully be-
fore stepping out on the side-
walk to make sure you will not
be hit by a bicycle. Parents
should strongly urge their child-
ren to keep their bicycles off
the sidewalks before someone
is seriously injured and the par-
ents are held responsible.
