It be comes tho promoter of too much vulgar familiarity toward respecta ble young blrls and ladles on, the part of tho rough, rowdy and h'oo lum element and ls likely to cause serious trouble if Its use 'Is n8f 'prohibited- entirely" or regulated Within tho bounds of decency and respect. Inasmuch as- tho sale of these brushes is under control of the Ar nold carnival concessions and was not prohibited by tho cherry author ities In tho making of tho contract, It Is doubtful If tho sale of them can be slopped unless thoy bo declared a public nuisance, as In tho case nf confetti, and this Mayor Rodgers in tends to do if their use continues to bo abused, and Chief of Police Gib son and his ofllcora will arrest every offender caught In the oc of abus ing the privilege and. those against whom complaints are mado and a heavy fine will bo imposed upon conviction.
