The crust upon the surface of tlio snow
that foil last night, rendered locomotion
qulto tlroiomo and difficult, this morn
ing. Many thoughtful und industrious
; citizens (tho occupants of Thornton's
block, for instance appreciating thin
fact, and abhorring sloppy sidowalkr,
wet feet, etc., swept tho dopo-dto of snow
from tho front of their buildings, leav
ing a way over which pedestrians may
pas dry-shod. This example should be
generally followed. If each citizen
would devote ten minutes to tho work of
shoveling tho snow from his own prem
ises, In a half hour's time thero would not
be a bushel of snow on the sidewalks,
anywhere within tho densely pnopled
portjon of-tho ity.' 1
