CLEAN UP EAGLE RIVER
Springtine Cleaning Should
Be General---Has Good
Influence,

Now that the snow has nearly
all disappeared and the mud IS
driving up, the sages begin their
talk on civic pride While it IS
habitual and comes around
annually to such a degree as to
be a bore, its meaning is the
same and applied properly does
good Early spring always shows
up the rubbish heaps and dilapl-
dated appearance of any place
and Eagle River is no exception.
Springtime is the time TO clean
mp and the thoughtful citizen is
the one WHO makes his premises
presentable and neat after the
departure of the SNOW. And
civic pride applies not only to
the individual It's application
to the streets of the village bring
about results that are beneficial
both to health and to the welfare
of the community A dirty town
never has any influence intend
ing settlers; it turns them away.
See that your bump of civic
pride is we'll developed and that
YOU do your part toward clean
ing up Eagle River, after its
winters accumulation.

little babies also ran away. The two re-
naming children grew up and had children,
but they all got away through the wire.
SO that only Mother Topsy and two chill
dren remained. We have a kitten named
Terry. which climbs UP over the wire OF
the cage and plays with them. She bats
them with her paws. The rabbits do not
seem to mind. for they poke their noses
into her face until she bites them again
We built two cages, using only one. One
night they burrowed under the vacant cage
and almost escaped. l stopped up part OF
the hole fixing II SO that they could go
from one cage TO another. One day Topsy
was missing. We looked all over, but
could not find her. About a week after I
saw a rabbit trying 10 get into the cage.
Running out l saw that 1t was our lost
rabbit. She was cut in several places and
looked very thin. but ira few days she
looked as well as ever. sHer children are
larger than she, but she is tanner and
smarter Once l put a strange rabbit in
the cage. The old mother ran after II and

let them out, but they always come back.
We are very fond Of them. especially the

across What Pity said the elf. THAT
She resolved not to play with your music
box when you were not there"
Maybe I'd better go home" said Dick,
a bit nervously. she might break 1t, YOU
know"
Come and look at your own shelf first,
said the elf and he led the way to a par
titlon where there stood ten large bottles
eight broken.
"Whew." whistled Dick; have I smashed
all those?"
"All but two" replied the elf. THAT
big pink one that is left was your resou-
ton not to tease Janet by playing tricks
with her favorite doll"
Hum" said Dick What's the other
one?"
That" said the ELF. lis your resolution
not to pick any of your grandmother s
peaches next summer without asking her"
We'll. that ones safe-for a while, any
way" said Dick, with sigh Of relief. "and
l don't believe I'm going TO let the other
one break. either. Do you know ! was
just going to play tricks with Janets doll
when you came for me?"
The elf capered and laughed. You must
not expect me to come next time. Goodby.
It's time for you TO go now"
How shall go?" asked Dick.
But before there was time for an answer
everything grew faint and misty, and Dick
felt himself sinking through the floor. and
when il cleared he was in the nursery
again.
Il really believe" s&id he. that that c.f
knew what l was thinking and came on
purpose. Well, next time I'll keep my
resolution without anybodys help Guess
I'd better go and see II Janets smashed
the music box"

,o..t was alone in the nursery one day,
- making up his mind to play some
-. on Janet's favorite doll. when the
go opened and a strange little figure
80 in. But before Dick had time TO
", onything. or even to think of anything
would like TO say. the little creature,
10 was evidently some kind OF an elf. put
s,s anger 20 his lips and said: Hush"
Sov as Dick had said nothing at all and
"a not even moved, he naturally felt a
,',,s srieved at being told to hush, but
'-asr the circumstances he could not ex-
plain his feelings.
The next thing the elf did was to come
.,oss and put his hands over Dicks eyes
and whisper, Gomez
mix went, but chiefly because he couldn't
.aar, 10 help it, for ne felt himself slowly
rising in the air
81 must be pretty nearly up to the ceiling
,ou" he thought, after he had apparently
,,sen some distance.
Rut in another moment the elfs hands
.,sre removed and Dick opened his eyes to
erS himself in a totally strange place II
seemed like huge room, very pretty and
h,isht. but the strange thing about II was
,hat there were shelves running all around
che walls, on which stood bottles Of diff
ssrent colors. or so it seemed to Dick. The
shelves were divided into different Compart-
vnepts. and Dick was surprised to see a diff
ferent name printed on each shelf beneath
the bottles
oWby. what are those?" he asked. "And
xhy are some of them broken" for as he
,ooked closer he could see that some Of the
hotties we're cracked and some completely
broken.
Those are what ! brought you to see"
,splied the elf In those bottles we keep
an the New Years resolutions made on the
srst day Of January. and, do you know,
most OF them are broken before March,
what pity said Dick. They're such
pretty bottles too"
."Oh. the bottles are just plain white glass
bottles" replied the elf; its the resoiu-
tons inside that give the pretty colors You
see the ones that are broken have no love-
iy simmer"
And Just then one of the prettiest bottles
on the shelf opposite Dick cracked all
