MISBEHAVIOUR IN THE STREETS

(To the Editor). Sir, —I beg a small portion of your space to protest against the behaviour of the gang of disgraceful youths that frequent our streets. It is quite apparent that, education has been wasted mi some of these youths. Time seems • 0 add nothing but obstinacy to disrrace, and it is now time that the authorities were called upon to teac.i ‘hem how to behave themselves. It is quite common for these youths to hurl insults at people passing through the town on motor bikes or cars. It is not very creditable to our town that these people should carry with them the insults of Shannon. Even ■ people calking along the streets have, to carry he abuse slung at them by this uneducated mob. Surely, Sir, the climax has men reached when people cannot meet to worship their God without having he atmosphere of their meeting polluted by this insulting mob on the street. These people, Sir, are a disgrace to ,ur town and country. They are a disgrace to themselves. If they only had The manly feeling and power to see themselves as others see them! I am, * tC- ’ ALL BLACK.
