you delight in; because it will turn out the work

on any other machine; because it will please you

New Testaments, but the apocrypha!
books of the Old Testament. It is print

Clean Up Days.
Friday and Saturday
March 17th and 18th
At a meeting of the Board of Health Monday night it was decided
to clean up the town by laying town off in small districts and select one
man in each district to act as supervisor and inspector of sanitary con
ditions in his own district. He will have direction of the work of the
scavenger and junk man and it will be his duty to see that all loose
matter about premises that is placed in alleys in a box or barrel is
hauled away in due time and that all toilets be well and regularly
cleaned. Also he may aid in encouragement of people of his district in
making all premises as sanitary as possible. It is certainly the hope of
the Board of Health that the pecfple in the various districts will faith
fully cooperate with your district supervisor and inspector and assist
him in comDeting with the other districts to see whose district may be
in the finest state of sanitation. What will be the reward for such
unity of effort? Fewer flies and mosquitoes and fewer flies and mos
quitoes mean fewer cases of malaria and fever. Most assuredly the ef
fect is not worthy to be compared to the reward the averting of many
cases of malaria and sometimes de'ath.
Physicians tell us that the mosquito and fly are the greatest distri
butors of disease germs. They also tell how to prevent, in a large
measure, the hatching of multiplied thousands of mosquitoes and flies;
man's worst enemy in the warm season of the year.
You want a sanitary town? Well make your place sanitary and
your neighbor will. Its catching.' Talk it, preach it, practice it and
watch the sentiment grow.
This district idea is a good one for it is practical. Below are the
districts and supervisors. Everybody in line for a clean town and then
keep clean.
