The request of Mayor Dodge, issued
recently in accordance with similar
PROCLAMATION by Governor Osborn. that

up day I'm Hancock. was observed today
TO a very gratifying extent, residents
getting busy bright and carly with
rakes and shovels and piling the win
tiers refuse into heaps convenient for
removal by the city teams.
Many piles of ashes that have mlrred
the attractiveness of the city for
months past were carted away To the
dump and the general aspect Of the
community at large was greatly en-
HANGED. The school children were
asked recently by Superintendent La
Rowe to aid IN the work and advised To
assist in making their home premises
as attractive as possible as well as
moro sanitary.
The movement TO clean up was be-
gun by many residents before the day
set by the mayor. and others who may
not nave been able to get at It already
will follow the example of their neigh
bors, 1t is hoped. with the result of
making Hancock more healthfui and
beautiful and clean.
