SOME RESOLUTIONS
FOR RusslA's RULER
ftIoncrabIs MentIon)

Dear Aunt Laurie:
TF were Czar Nicholas IL would
try TO turn over new leaf when
"A little 1919 comes to earth. II man
had a certain religion, belief, or In fact
any way to worship God would try
and be just with him.
would not torment him In some
dreadful way or Danish him TO dark
and dreary Siberia
To be intimate and friendly with my
people would be very important, for 1t
would make better country and more
progressive. / think II the czar would
let congress or parliament decide
on the laws they would be less severe
and not so hard to obey,
In the way of peace with the great
powers or the United States / would
try to be neighborly This would make
trade and commerce more extensive.
ana Russia would be a better and more
civilized country.
To be barbarious In most ways makes
country slow and uncomfortable.
think ii the czar would amend his ways
Russia would be more favored by the
other nations. ESTELLE REICH.

more schools and colleges. so the girls
and boys will have q good chance to
have an education. / would establish
fine. wide highways and bculevards, so
the roads wouldn't be so muddy in
the rainy season. would build flne
bridges over the Los Angeles river. !
think It would add a great deal to the
beauty OF the city. would have play
grounds built for the children TO play
In Besides Fairgrounds I would have
more public parks. I would build more
public buildings. such as gynnasiums
public libraries, museums. art galleries,
etc
/ think IL all Of this was done Los
Angeles would be one of the prettiest
cities Ia the United States.
1 hope this letter Will please yous

Dear Aunt Laurie:
r WILL write and tell you Of some
new resolutions would make x
= were Mayor Alexander.
would resolve TO try to make Los
Angeles the most beautiful and attrac-
tive city in the United States.
/ would resolve to put the money Tor
the harbor and Owens river aqueducr
to the best possible use.
To try to annex the nearby towns and
cities to Los Angeles would be another
resolution. BY doing this think the
taxes would be less because there would
be more people to pay them. would
resolve to veto all bills that would not
benefit the city. and would give every
one square deal
] would resolve TO do all 1 could 10
promote the state division sentiment
because 1 think that the north has
treated the south very unJustly by lay
ing such heavy tax on the people of
the southern counties.

CONSIDERS SPANISH
KING TOO NEGLIGENT
(HonorabIe MentIon)

Dear Aunt Laurie:
Il AM going to tell you about some
good resolutions l would keep II
- were the king OF Spain.
would stop all the bull lighting of
the country. would not allow it any
place and would punish anyone who
encouraged IT,
think II is dreadful TO kill the poor
animals for pleasure. There Is no
pleasure in It that can see. The poor
bull gets 30 frightened he does not
know which way to turn.
Next 1 would provide wholesome
amusements for my people, and would
teach them how to be good men and
women
There would be schools for the chill
Gren and colleges for the young men
and women.
The people would take an interest In
things and be energetic II l could get
the right kind of anusemente for them.
! would punish any person helping ths
bull fights. / think 1t is one OF the
most brutal Of amusements-if it can
be called an amusement.
Now Will close, Aunt Laurie hoping
YOU will approve of the resolutions
would make and carry out.

The runaway car broke loose out

their lives they had to jump. They
We're uninjured.

ACTIVITY AT CREELY

Greeley. Colo, June 22.-The To-
cality east of Greeley, known as the
Grow Creek country, where three
years ago one could drive in per
fectly straight line east for 25 miles
without encountering fences, is the
scene of great industrial activity to-
day. Stretching across ii can be seen
miles of grade of the new>branch line
of the Union Pacific with hundreds
OF men and teams at work. Railroad
camps dot the plains and steam plows
are working night and day turning
the sod land into fields for planting.
Although this region will be wat
cred within two years by the Lara
mie-Poudre bitches and reservoirs,
many of the land owners are now dry
farming their places. Hundreds of
acres are now planted to grain and
potatoes. Spring rains have put the
ground in excellent shape.
