This is so ressonehle n request that lit-

with the considerstion thet it deserves

tee in the kindly spirit in which it is
mnde. It is impossible for the commit-
tee to keep the streets free of papers end

eccumuleie very rapidly. It is en eeey
mutter, however, to evoid thit, and only
requires the exercise of e little thought
fulness and e disposition to old the eu-
thorities in n commendeble desire to
mete South Nor-elk a cleanly es wellne
e besutiful city. This is en individnel
