This week and next are "clean
up" and paint up" weeks, and we
hope everyone in Mankato is inter-
ested in making Makato more
beautiful and healthful city.
ITO accomplish the best results
cooperation of all the citizens, in
Guiding children, is most essential,
and everyone ought to do their ut
most to make these weeks add to the
civic beauty Of our naturally beauti-
full city.
"We have heretofore paid the chill
dren literally for "swatting the fly"
and it may be that something will
be done again this year; but we want
everyone to be interested because the
fly is a public nuisance, and when
flies abound dust and filth also
abound, and this is great detriment
early fly that must be exterminated
if we wish to be free from them.
eve have done something to make
our city more anitary-inspection of
dairy, market and grocery stores
have done a great deal to bring this
about, but much more can be done.
We need better garbage cans-the
kind that dogs cannot tip over. We
need our vacant lots used as gard
ems or tennis courts, we need to make
our city so clean and attractive, in
our streets, and around our homes
and business houses that we can ev-
er boost and boast of beautiful
Mankato. Will every citizen in Man
kato do his utmost to make this year
the banner year for cleanliness and
the best possible sanitary condition."

Seals were broken on two freight
cars of the Northwestern road on the
side track near the ST. Peter road
last night. Some small articles were
missed from the cars. The switch
which would have to be thrown be-
fore the cars could be taken to the
main track, was blocked up with
fine crushed stone as another means
of preventing the cars from being
taken away. The thieves threw on
an air brake and also shut two of the
hand brakes. An automobile was

that this was brought by the thieves
to carry things away from the cars,
