Suggestions For a City BeaujitiifMl EDITOR TI.MBS: 1 havo noted with In terest and appreciation, your splendid campaign for making Marshflold p. city bcautirul. If tho citizens will now do their duty as faithfully and thoroughly an Tho Times, thoro Is no roason why tho dream should not bo realized. In tho lino of suggestion, I beg to offer a plan that proved populur and offectlvo In my old homo town of Clovoland, Ohio. That Is tho formation of street Improvement associa tions to forward tho 'work. Kach streot should bo divided Into certain sections or blocks and all residents therein hold a meeting, eloct of ficers, decide on a uniform plan of Improve ment, nnd then go to work to placo tho plan' In operation. This mothotl would dovolop a certain rivalry botwoon streets that would bo productive of rosults. It would mean uniform ity that would add 'much to tho effectiveness of the completed work. Tho labor involved will bo repaid many tlmos ovor, not only. In attractiveness, jliut .IrjfmJ valuo added to tlio property when thq. wbrli is flnlsbpd.
