SCHOOL AUDITORIUM
OBSERVE THE CITY
ORDINANCES SAYS
CHIEF M’ELROY
Chief Suggests that all Citizens ‘Brush
I p’ on City Ordinances in Order
to Observe The Law.
Ordinance No. 108 of City of Winder
makes it unlawful for any person to
spit on the side walks. Anyone vio
lating this provision is subject to a fine
o SI.OO. There is too much disregard
ba/r this ordinance and same must be
respected or we will enforce the law.
Please do not block sidewalk when
you are in conversation with your
friends or at any other time, as this is
getting to be a public nuisance in the
Cty of Winder.
Keep your chickens off your neigh
bors’ premises, as they are planting
seed to produce food for their own ben
efit.
t y There are some who are very care
less in parking their automobiles. Those
who park on Broad street between the
railroads must park in center of said
street at right angle to curb.
There are some who have not paid
advarolem tax for the year 1920. This
matter must be attended to at an ear
ly date.
Take out business license at once,
as they are long past due. Be sure to
pay your street tax in the month of
March. So your street can be worked.
The above are very important and
I hope same will have due considera
tion E. O. McELHOY.
Chief of Police.

“THE WORLD.”
Is it not pleasant
On a morn in the spring,
To smell the sweet odors
And hear the birds sing?
1
But still—in the summer
With ripe grapes on the vine,
And red peaches in the orchard —
This is a glorious time.
In the months of autumn
When the leaves are gold and red
And the corn ready to gather,
It’s really no time to dread.
It’s cold in the winter
With ice and snow on the ground
But i think (he world is beautiful
All the year round.
