Unit4潘伯敦街上的女士艾伯特▪迪巴特罗门作者与妻子搬到一条叫作潘伯顿的小街上居住后不久,就结识了一位特殊的邻居 -- 梅布尔▪霍华德。

为了使社区的生活变得更美好，她一生都在与乱扔垃圾、腐朽、混乱的现象作斗争。

下面是梅布尔▪霍华德,这位广受爱戴的街区监督员的动人故事。

多年来,我和妻子苏一直想住到费城的中心城区附近。

按收入状况，我们只能住在一条叫做潘伯顿的小街上的联体房屋。

房子需要修理，但我手工活做得不赖，所以不担心修缮的事。

让我们担心的是这个街区。

一些房屋已经失修。

这儿的犯罪比我们过去见过的要多得多。

但我们的街区似乎还可以，所以我们决定把房子买下来。

一切收拾停当后，我们搬到新家。

街上空无一人，但我感到有人在注视我们。

苏在楼上测量尺寸，好装窗帘，我听到叩门声。

“您好？”一个又高又尖的声音喊道。

我打开门，看到一位妇人，明亮的双眼既犀利又透着愉快。

她至少65岁，清瘦，但一点也不虚弱。

恰恰相反。

她肌肉强健，看上去像只老鹰盯着它的猎物。

“对不起，打扰您了,亲爱的”，她说，“我是梅布尔▪霍华德，这个街区的监督员。

”我对街区监督员的含义所知甚少。

但我很快意识到街区监督员的作用就是提出城市的公益服务要求，向警方汇报纠纷以及组织力量保持街区的清洁与安全。

我把梅布尔介绍给下楼来的苏。

“我是街区的监督员，”见我忘了提及她的头衔，梅布尔对苏说。

“星期二倒垃圾，”梅布尔继续说道，“星期一晚上七点以前不准把垃圾放到外面。

动物有时会钻进垃圾堆，弄得一团糟，实在有碍观瞻。

我得设法保持街区清洁。

”“我们注意到了，” 我说。

“你们从事什么职业？”我们告诉了她，我还顺便提到，我兼职做些手工活。

“喔，很好。

”她拉长了声音说出最后一个词，语气就象是看到了美味的蛋糕似的。

我们继续客套着，直到我和苏不得不继续工作。

我把梅布尔送到门口。

“看到那个牌子了吗？”梅布尔指着一根告示杆问道。

只见在一张停车标牌下面刻着“梅布尔▪霍华德 - 街区监督员”几个字。
