| OUR CITY FATHERS! Where
are they? Scarcely to be seen for the
high weeds all over town. Both sides
of the streets all the way to the
depot, nothing but dusty weeds al
most half over the beautiful side
walks. Such a state of affairs
makes the town look dull, sleepy and
unattractive, dirty and causes the
strangers to think that we are not
progressive but very careless, In
dolent people. Let US not be like
the old clock which says "take your
time" but like the modern alarm
| clock which says, "Get to work"
