SWEEP OH !
(To the Editor.) '. "Sia-Two or three times a week, ns rule, wo read of Mr So-and-So being fine j 5s arid costs in the Masterton RiM; Court for allowing his chimney^'" : to .become foul,. It- is not to lief expected that our Borough Council '■ will endeavor to check the " chimney on fire" nuisance, as they participate in the fines, and in these straightened times "every little helps." Still, sir, I think that when it can be proved that a chiojß.oy had beon swept within: a fortnight or three weeks' hop}, the.. . time' of catching tiro, the "'/ should endeavor to protect tulr&un;:geasea by licensing; the sweeps'"and making periodical inspections of their, apparatus, and also make them responsible for a chimney catching the, say within six weeks from tho time of sweeping it, - . I am, ic, CnisiKEY Pot.
