GIoTTO's TOWER

Way over In the city of Flor
ence, Italy, is a great tower which
was designed by the artist Giotto
Workmen started to build this
tower about five hundred years
ago, though 1T was many year:
later when 1t was completed.
The children playing about the
streets hear many stories about
the famous Giotto and his tower,
and this Is one their mothers used
to tell them.
Giotto was a little shepherd boy
who tended the sheep in the
He was kind and
good to his flock, often carrying
the little lambs when they were
tired. There was one lamb that
seemed to be weak, so Giotto gave
1t special care.
One day when the sun was shin
ing and the flock had wandered a
great ways, little Giotto wrap
ping his cloak about him, lay down
on the ground to sleep. Beside
him he placed the weak lamb,
that he might protect it.
AS the lamb slept it seemed to
him that the little lamb spoke,
saying: DRAW thou a picture of
me ON a rock, and shortly a noted
artist who will admire thy work
will pass by. He will take thee
away, and in time thou shalt be-

Be not afraid; 1 will always aid
thee"

WILDCAT LAND JUMPERS
ABANDON KERN CLAIMS

BAKERSFIELD, April 7-Wildcat-
ters and relocators who seized claims
in the east half of the Kern river
field in the belief that the bringing in
of a well in that section would open
up an entirely new portion of the field
and cause rush in which claims
would grow many times in value, re
ceived a severe setback yesterday when
three wells on sections p, 2S-2S, the
property of the Opportune Oil company
and Garrett & Watson, were completely
abandoned, their owners admitting that
they had sunk dry holes The aban-
donment of the wells came as sur
prise, in view of the fact that the Car
rett & Watson interests had prepared
to go as deep as necessary to find oil,
and only few days ago were reported
to have secured sufficient of the Valu-
able fluid to prove up their relocated
claim, on which is situated the Hiber-
nian.
Where several rigs were up day or
two ago, there is nothing in sight to-
day barring a lone derrick, which Will
be taken down as soon as possible.
The Hibernian had expected to go
into the sand at something like 500 feet,
but continued nearly twice that dis
tnce. The Opportune claimed favorable
indications until the last moment,
The abandonment of the claims robs

SILENT ON ADMINISTRATION
ASSOCIATED Press1

MILWAUKEE,, April I've must
remove the swamp and cesspools and
marshes, as our forefathers have done,
We must take this city they have
founded and built and beautihed, and
must cleanse it," Mayor~elect Emil Sci
del, Social Democrat leader of Milwau-
kee, said tonight in his first public ut
terance since election.
Mayor-elect Seidel was the principal
speaker at the dedication of Solomon
Juneau hall in the Auditorium building.
He did not outline the program of his
coming administration further than to
make the reference to the cleansing OF
the city.
A statement indorsed by all the So
ial-Democrats- select will be issued next
week
In his talk tonight Mr.. Seidel paid a
tribute to Solomon Juneau, the founder
of Milwaukee, and other early settlers
telling of the various stages OF the
citys upbuilding from the time when
the site was covered with forests, hills,
swamps and marshes, until today 1--WE
see the city as it presents itself: Ju-
neau was the settler; we are his de-
scendants," he said.
Mr.. Seidel spoke in part as follows:
"The modern city, while it has grown
to large proportions and increased in
population until hundreds of thousands
are huddled together in small areas,
has developed swamps of different
nature than our forefathers drained.
Some of these have become cesspools,
the stencil Of which rises to the heaV-
ems Men and women, as well as inno-
cent children, are wrecked and ruined
in these swamps. I'VE, the children OF
the settlers-the sons and daughters
true 10 the spirit of our fathers, WhC
left their homes to look for new civ
ilization-we must follow in their spirit.
"Our task lies clearly before us. We
must remove the swamps and cesspools
and marshes, as our forefathers have
done. We must take this city that they
have built and beautified. and we must
cleanse it. We must begin to add to its
architectural, ideal beauty. Our task
Is to take this, our city, and TO make
of Ii a home-a real home-for It's num-
dreds of thousands of men, women
and children; a place where there Is
little room for tears and heartaches, a
place where virtue is protected, place
where our boys can become men ana
orr daughters women, and a place
where the strong stand for the weak,
holding their hands over the heads OF
the weak, shielding them from all
! harm.
