But there il, some THINGS We ha
ought 10 change in this town, be
cause the change would be worth Ii,
effort Of changin it. We had moi

town the way they do, especially ia
not ought 10 let weeds grow AMI
flourish any place We had ought

as the streets. and no store had

trash out loose in the alley We
have got Il city dump. and il ha..
ought 10 be used as such We lla
not ought to allow people 10 hat.
Lonlircs ia the streets, as is now b;
Ing done, unless we could find a wa

which aint got a few members which
could build hull church if they S,
desired, and they had ought to get
together and fix things up. We had

down if you can't afford To 90 up.
We had ought to be ashamed 10 have
yisiters to this fare City ask why

looks after the rodes better than
the City does after the streets. What
good dos it do man to live on a good
rode if there is a impossible barrier
rared between him and town in tn
