HERE'S THE REST OF THE
WOODBINE STORY

salina objects to Sheriff Hassler
of this county claiming the credit
for the finding OF the goods that
we're stolen from a Woodbine store
last spring. The Salina people say
that Thomas Craig of that place
found the goods near Salina. The
story Of the affair is somewhat in
terestlng, and not all OF II has been
told.
AS a matter OF fact, there was a
fine chance to catch the men who
robbed the Woodbine store. Sheriff
Hassler telephoned to Salina and to
Solomon that the thieves were head
ed that way on a handcar and to
watch the Rock Island, Union Pa
cific and Santa Fe tracks at those
places. The thieves neared Salina
on a handcar and burned 1t within
sight Of the railroad yards. not In
the night but in the morning. When
The burned car was found, 1t was
still hot.
There was a good chance for
added credit in the affair, that did
1T materialize. Anyhow, that was
asst spring.

Clean Up Your
Dirty Premises

From May 4th to 9th inclusive
is the time set by Governor
Haines as Cleanup Week." and
the intervening time is none too
long for Parma folks to prepare
for the crusade against insight
hness.
Considerable good work has
already been done, and more is
under way. The proprietor of
a leading hotel here has mown
his lawn, trimmed his shrubbery,
shaved his mustache, laid a new
cement walk, and declares that
the good work will go on; under
the direction of the Ampictyonic
club and Prof. koebel the school
grounds are being beauti6ed, but
there yet remains a lot to be
done; the King drag might be
used to advantage on many of
the streets; numerous alleys are
as vet somewhat unoeautiful,
and here and there are private
rear premises which are unuidy,
and not exactly up to the stand
ard laid down by the advocates
of impeccable neatness.
1t is up the people of Parma to
get busy, and this paper will do
everything in reason to assist
in making this a "spotless"
town except to sacrifice that Of
fee cat. Remember that clean
liness is akin to godliness, and
that it will not be Pharisaical for
the good and bad people OF
Parma to pat each other on the
back and truthfully say: "How
clean | am"
