Of the committee. was formerly a dep

State, and has an Office at III Broad

Zone of the aims Of our committee
will be to educate the workingmen into
the belief that they will be protected
by the government at all times and
that there is nothing to be gained by
resorting to violence in strikes. Their
prosperity depends on the prosperity
of the country, and the country de-
ponds on reparedness-pr preparedness

A PROMINENT PART
One of Their Leaders Promises
to Heckle Senators in
Audience.

Legislators. be prepared. As you sit
plscidly upo.. the grandstand next Sat
urday watching the parade you stand
to have fist shaken in your faces and
speech hurled at your heads straight
from the dauntless tongue of the wom-
an leader Of the drygoods store en-
ployes, a more ardent believer in pre-
paredness than yourselves.

Mary Donnelly, who will lead five
thousand women employees Of drygoods
stores in the march. "If they had
passed the preparedness bills last win

shouldn't have to use up our Saturday
afternoon walking up the avenue in our
high heels. I'm going to tell them so.'
Women's Par. IN Parade.
From society leauers 10 little shop
girls, women will have their part in the
parade. Women's college clubs, wom-
ems political organizations, social
clubs, professions and trades will go
TO swell the ranks. The biggest of the
forty banners now floating down the
line of march is that of the National
Special Aid Society, of 259 Fifth Ave
nue., the first woman's organization to
fly flag for preparedness. There will
even be a young women's battalion in
the parade.
More than $4,000 preparedness fans
have already been turned away from
the waiting line Of those who desire TO
march for a bigger army and navy. The
number has grown TO 100000 marchers,
and those who have the affair in charge
are taking as much trouble to keep the
parade from growing larger as workers
for lesser causes usually have TO make
il big enough. II will take the parade
thirteen hours TO pass given spot,
making the best time possible. There
will be 40 bands in the ranks, and
the only tune not played will probably
be 81 Did Not Raise My Boy To BE a

An Argument in Everyday Clothes.
There will be no floats in the parade,
no fancy costuming, no spectacular ar
ray OF any kind. The most Impressive
thing about it is the fact that IT VII.

''Clean-Up" Compositions, by
Pupils Of the Convent.
THE "CLEANING UP. "

Since about two weeks everyone is
cleaning up their yards, front and
back. The town is making parks at
nearly every street corner, later in
the season TO be filled with flowers
and plants. What admirable sug-
gestion! We already have a town
site as beautiful by nature as any in
the state. We shall not be ashamed
of our little town and we will try to
make it a joy for all our summer
visitors.
The Clean Up" Committee has
been asking the people not to throw
papers and other things on the
streets. We are only. too happy
to comply with such a reasonable de-
mand, and are ready to help all we
can in sweeping old Dirt away even
if it requires for that the assistance
of the Brighton Broom Brigade.

The subject of our composition this
week is about the cleaning up of the
streets that the people of Island
Pond have undertaken to do lately.
| am sure the pupils of the convent
will be very glad to do all in their
power to help, in some measure, in
this interesting work.
We have been notified not to throw
on the streets papers, sticks or any
thing unsightly or that which may
appear disorderly. To suggest us
to do things we would not like to
do, would really be disagreeable, but
to oblige us to keep our yards clean
and not to throw cans or such things
as would gather flies and infectious
germs, is only pleasure and a duty
for every patriotic child of Island
Pond.
How often we have been told in
school, that cleanliness and order
will supply the place of elegance and
make a place appear more pleasant
and attractive than one would sup
pose.

across the Coahuila line and eighty
miles east of Jiminez. destroying manv
thousands of dollars worth of Ameri-
cans property and looting the town
OF everything of value.
This news, which may prove to he
OF the highest importance. as il Is be-

The bandits made their attack on
the town on April 3 They came from
Escalon, a junction point on the Nexi-

equal distance southwest of Sierra Mo-
1ada. which has its connection by the
Mexican Northern railroad. On their
