the finest plays ever produced in our

Wonder If our truant officers will
do their duty in Nauvoo this year!
The law provides that they shall do
their duty, but will they see that all
boys and girls attend school regu-

amount of public improvements each
year, not so much as to be unduiy
burdensome, but improvements made
where they are the most needed ana
made in spirit Of justice based up
on careful discrimination as to ioca-
ton and need; of the work.
