Concerning
That Ordinance
•fl Yesterday we told you some of the provisions of the
jitney ordinance now before Council. So far you haven't
run across anything unreasonable, have you?
•jjßut you want to know more—so let's dig into the mat
ter a bit deeper.
•jJThe ordinance provides that the interior of the jitney
shall be effectively illuminated at night.
<3 The reason is obvious. While in hiring a cab or other
vehicle alone it is yours for the time—to go where you
say—to carry with you whom you shall say—with the
jitney it's different. It answers the beck and the call of
the passerby. Your fellow-passengers may be law
abiding citizens. Again, they may not be. Wouldn't
you rather ride with them in lighted cars?
<|Automobile lighting is a simple matter. There's noth
ing unreasonable about that provision, is there?
•fThe ordinance provides that any article left by a pas
senger in a jitney shall be held for twenty-four hours,
and if not called for to be turned over to the city for pre
servation and identification.
•SAnything unreasonable about that?
•SWe know, from experience, that packagegs are fre
quently forgotten by their owners. Under present con
ditions how could you locate any article which you might
leave in a jitney.
•JThe ordinance provides that there shall be a sign at
tached to each jitney setting forth the license number
and the fare or fares charged.
CJIs that reasonable or unreasonable?
•Jit's to protect you against the sudden increase in rates
that has at times taken place when the jitney-trip home
has been but half covered.
•JThe ordinance provides that the city's Department of
Public Affairs shall be authorized to issue regulations
and rules governing the operation of the jitney.
•lAnything unreasonable about that?
•([Traffic dangers have multiplied many times since the
advent of the jitney. Careful operation will eliminate
some of them, and YOU are entitled to any protection
that can be given you in that way.
•JThen there are provisions, of course, imposing fines for
the violation of provisions, as is customary with all or
dinances of such character, which it is unnecessary to
enumerate.
•JBut outside of them, you have had presented to you
the gist of the ordinance and its important provisions.
•J Is there anything about these provisions, individually
or collectively, that is unreasonable or drastic?
•jiSeems like a pretty sane and fair measure throughout,
doesn't it?
fjJWell, as we said before, it's squarely up to you—Act.

RID OF ECZEMA
Who Really Wishes. It's An
Unnecessary Affliction
The latest discovery in Ihe world
of medicine for the treatment of
eczema and its kindred diseases of the
skin salt rheum, tetter, pimples,
barber's itch and ringworm—is anti
septic Ucanol. If you suffer from
eczema and its awful torturing itch
ing, just go to H. C. Kennedy and get
50 cents' worth of Ucanol use tt
night and morning—and if It does not
stop the itching at once and clear up
and heal the skin, return the empty
box to them and get your money
back without further discussion.
The very fact that you can thus try
it without cost is one proof of its won
derful healing powers the other
proof is what Ucanol actually accom
plishes when you apply it to the skin.
Now you can understand why Ucanol
is in sucli great demand at drug stores
everywhere by those who suffer from
eczema and kindred skin troubles. The
baby that cries at night and all day
stops crying when Ucanol is applied
to its chafing, burning skin, and homes
without number to-day realise its great
value for baby's skin troubles, as well
as for the skin ailments of grown-ups.
The small price of Ucanol, the liberal
quantity and the inoney-back guaran
tee under which you buy it. makes
L even one satisfied. —Advertisement,
