SIX PAN-HANDLERS GET THE GATE; COURT HALL GETS CLEARED Grand Jury and Commis sioners Are To Be ' Complimented The recent Grand Jury is to be com-| plimented for rocommending that theé Court House bhall be cleared of pan-j handlers. and the County Cammissioners; are to be praised for instructing the| Sheriffs ofice to exforce the recommen-| dation. é For many years the practice has been | a disgra e to the county. Both Republi-| can and Demecratic A-iministmtionsg have hesitated to eclean up the Court§ House hall, probably thinking that to] enforce an onder of this kind wonldé mean the loss of a few votes at elcetion| time. The citizens will no doubt be! please to know that in the fature they} will be sble to walk into the Court] House and transaect business without skppinz on a quid of tobaceo or being stopp>d with a reguest of “brother. can| vou spare a dime.” = Not all of those who congregate in the| halls. are. by any means, pan-handlers, ' but the contirual gathering of large! gronps of men there eauses much :mnoy-;; anee to the eitizens, especially women. who o thers on business missions. For/ s stranesr to step inside the Court| Houss and hear a group of men swearing/ is eertainly not a desirable advertisoment | for Hagerstown and Washington Coun-j iy i Let us home that the County Com-| missioners’ orders will be carried out to| the letter and mot forgettsn as time goes| on. i _ i WHATS GONNA HAPPEN NOW! | We're wondering what is geing to hap-| pen now whon peliticians look over the | calendar and find no mors birthdays as| an excuse to make speeches. § e i DEFMONSTRATOR HERE A spoci-l demonsirater will be at the!
