set for The great 500 mile race for $780,.

Several of the drivers sent their ma
chimes around at a good clip. Before
they try out the speed Of the track
they will study it's stretches and
curves in detail and will know at just
what spot to pour the power into their
machines.
The Duesenberg team, entered first
some time ago, was the first to get to
the track. O'Donnell, Henderson and
Chandler were out early Sunday and
were closely followed by the two

Cooper, Anderson, Brown, Haibe, Hen
ming, O'Donnell, Henderson, Chandler,
Burman Wilcox, Aitken and others are
now here and will have their cars
ready for the terrific test of Saturday
afternoon.
Indications point to a record break
ing crowd. The value of the attraction
with all of the world famous cars and
drivers is such that people from all
sections of the west are coming to the
speedway in hordes. The advance
sale has been very large, but such is
the immense capacity of the stands,
bleachers and infield that one hundred
and twenty-five thousand people can
be accommodated with ease.

Clean-Up Week.

Now that the st. Adams Business 4
Professional Mems association has named
the date for cleanup" week it is time
to lay plans. From May 3 to May
there ought to be activity along the line
and the desire of the committee TO make
st. Adams the "spotless town" of Yer
mont ought to be realized. Here is what
the committee asks;
Rake up your front yards.
Clean up your back yards, alleys, and
passageways.
Cart away all ashes, manure piles, gar
bage, tin cans, bottles, rubbish and re.
fuse.
Pick up all waste papers around your
yard or in the street.
Dsnfect all garbage cans TO prevent
the breeding OF flies.
II the man-of the house will do his
part, the committee will do theirs. They
promise TO send a team through every
street in the city Wednesday morning,
May 8, collecting free all the waste ma
terial people want to set out in boxers
or other containers.
Last year the cleanup campaign met
with great success. IL should be repeat
ed this year. II might be wise TO begin
the work in the out of the way places,
in the back yards and alleys. II these
are cared for before the enthusiasm is
spent, il will be well, for pride will take
care of the front lawn. Give the boys
and girls their little tasks to do. IL
will help the work along and will have
a good effect on future cleanup efforts.
And once cleaned up keep that way for
the rest Of the summer.--St. Adams Mes.

THE CANADIANS OK THE FIRING,

From all the reports, both official anc
unofficial, il is conceded that the Cana
dian soldiers fought admirably ia the
great battle around Npres, in Belgium
during the closing days OF last week; and
even the Official reports seem TO depart
from their usual stolidity and shower
praise upon the troops from the domin-
ion. Now this praise from headquarters
might be taken as a means of encourage
ment to further enlistment IN the terri
tory to the north Of the United states
but such superficial attribute cannot b.
attached 10 the report which was issued
saturday; there is too much of the Gle

driven back a mile and quarter through
the use by the Germans OF bombs carry
ing a deadly gas. The Canadians, too
were forced to fall back to maintain the
continuity OF the allies line, but they
soon recovered their pose and were the
first to return to the conflict, going back
with such ferocious vigor that the Ger.
mans were forced to retreat and leave
breastworks and heavy guns they had
just conquered from the Canadians. BY
this effective counter charge, the day was
saved from being hopelessly lost for the
allies, since the Canadian charge carried
along the French and Belgian troops SO
that they also regained much of the
ground lost at the same time. All the
ground was not regained, but the coun.
ter-charge all along the line was success
full enough to lend encouragement to the
allies, commanders and men alike. For
restoring the morale OF a discounted
army, line, the Canadians must be given
credit and much credit, too, in the light
OF the possibilities for complete disaster
OF the battle. They have fully justified
their presence on the firing CLINE; and
from this time forth they should show

the allies.
