SWAT THAT FLY NOW
Would Clean Up and Paint Up; Says
Norman Has Healthy People;
A Beautiful Place.
The following letter was one sub-
mitted in the recent contest for the
best letter for the beautification o(
Norman, as conducted by the Civic J
cimmittee
The Civic Committee:-
I n regard as what to do to make
, Norman more beautiful and a more
cleaner and better city in which to
live, 1 would suggest. For each per-
son (you and 1) little, old and young,
to first clean up their own back yard.
Then, as we see a stray can, lo
pick it up or of we are afraid to do
that, take a stick and play"shinny'
with it until you reach a garbage can
and then forsake it. Not that we
need to make the alleys, but how
many times do we step around a can
too lazy to put it in a garbage can
right in our own yards.
Swat That Fly.
That would save a lot of stagnant
water forming and causing typhoid
germs to accumulate and therefoie
we would have a cleaner and better
city to live in, and last, but not least
TO SWAT THAT FLY, before it
causes some innocent, helpless child
to suffer on account of our careless-
ness.
Thus if we all do these things it will
make a city beautiful for healthy
people to look upon and healthy pen-
a sunken place, planting new grass,
painting and remodeling their build-
ings—make the town as a whole more
beautiful and then we would all be
brightening the corner where we an*.
Swat It Again.
1 do not expect you all topay much
heed to this but probably it will re-
mind you to mention some of these
things in some of your writeups for
the Civic Cimmittee column. For
| you know most everyone reads the

Reflections-
After the Slndding Accident
Reflections, that show Weed Tire Chains as
the only real dependable device for the preven-
tion of skidding do not conic to some motorists
until their hare rubber tires skid and carry
them upon the rocks of disaster.
How strange it is thftt some men arc never
guided by the experience of others, never take
the lesson home to themselves until too late.
They read the newspaper accounts of dis-
astrous skidding accidents caused by lack of
Weed Tire Chains but they do not heed the
warning.
Th' y wait until the skidding of their own
bare tires results in death, injury or car damage
before they realize that tires are safe on wet-
slippery-skidily rouds only when encased in
Weed Tire Chains.
