This and That

Stop lights installed at intersections in Seguin
    The City early this week installed an additional 4 stop-go lights at various street intersections in the business district.  They are being tried out and will be regulated as to timing.
    They are needed for traffic regulation and with the cooperation of both autoist and pedestrians will prove of much benefit to Seguin.  As soon as possible, Mayor Starcke informs us, yellow lanes will be painted on the street intersections forming a route for pedestrians and also serving as a stop line for cars.  With a little more attention to the error of double parking on the crowded streets, Seguin will enjoy as well regulated traffic as any city of its size.

City to name streets
    Seguin will become real citified as well as posting convenient information when it completes placing street name signs on the curbs of the various intersections.  This is painted on with the aid of stencils and with the new house numbers being placed, will add greatly towards locating numbers and streets.
