CLEANUP DAY.

Today is cleanup day. The
health department yesterday made
the request that residents having
trash to haul away have 1t sitting
in packages along the alleys as
early as possible this morning. 1t
is not necessary to call the health
department and tell it about the
trash you have. In fact, 1t Is re-
quested that you do not call. Just
get the trash ready and the wag-
ons will come along and gather
1t up. But like opportunity, the
wagons will pass your way but
once, and then return no more.
So don't forget, and get at 1t early
or the wagons may pass by before
you are ready.
