CLEAN UP!

Now let us give the war a rest. The rout, the siege, the sally, And gayly shed our coat and vest. And go and clean the alley! Let's gather up the dogs and cats Which have this life departed. And let tin cans and bricks and hats Off to the dump be carted. In winter you may voice your views, Which you believe important, And base long sermons on the news, But Tn the spring you'd ortn't. Then every ablebodied man Should whoop the "Clean Up" slo-
 gan,
 And chase the old tomato can The cast-off hat and brogan. So let us clear our bulging brows Of trifling thoughts and narrow And gather up the old dead cows, And work the rake and harrow. The rubbish left by careless men, And lazy human chesses, Will bring host of germs again, And they'll bring punk diseases. And forty billion flies will come, As many microbes bearing, And round our weary heads they'll
 hum,
 And keep us busy swearing. Clean up! Clean up! On every block Let all the workers rally! No man should stand around and talk Until he's cleaned his alley!

fl INTERESTING FACTS

 V. s. tbe legislative session Of 1917,

 Tho interest in the Senate of 1917 v,s apparently not so keen over the ,tate for three of the newly elected members had no opposition. Nine of the recently elected Senators have had Dsyious experience in law making in he House. Twenty-two members of l Ae Senate are lawyers, one is phy- scian. and one is a preacher.
 The House shows in it's list several new members who have previously served in the Senate.
 It has been minated that the atti- hde of members in 1915 on the Saw yer racing bill, had considerable to do with the failure of many to return. | This is hardly possible, though of the | IA who came back, only three voted | in favor of the bill. It is also claimed that the ballot of others on the state wide prohibition bill also caused many to be among the missing in 1917. Those who circulate the report allege that the people resent the passage of | Ehe bill, but most of those who came back voted for the bill, as we'll as against the racing measure.
 It has always been that the House vas friendly to the Governor. The last session came nearer to seeing a break between the executive chamber and the House. than at any previous session, and this was due largely to interest in the racing bill. The Sen ate Is often cross ways with the Gov enor, but a cheek of the 1917 mem- lers shows Gov. C. II. Trough will have good majority who will en- deayOr to carry out his policies.

MEMBERS PREPARING
 NEW MEASURES

Now that members of the 1917 General Assembly are safely nomi- mated, many are working upon meas ures which are to bring them fame or oblivion, and ideas which were kept carefully concealed while the cam paign was being waged, are coming to light.
 Stephen Meador, editorial sage of Okolona, is first out with his 1917 model six cylinder offering. MT. Mea- dor expects to secure constitutional amendment which will force a gradu- ated land tax. He has not yet de- cided what the property owner should pay, but he hopes to make it enough to break up the practice of holding large tracts after the timber has re- moved, for a second growth to ap- pear. Mr. Meador claims that large lumber companies now hold greater portion of some counties, and net only do they prevent development, but the land in it's present form does not yield sufficient revenue for the county.
 In former legislatures similar eff forts to put constitutional amend ment before the people have been offered, but they have never reached the people.

Seventy Women Enter One Pub
lie House in Is Minutes" is the title
OF an article that has attracted wide
attention as calling notice to the
general drinking among lower class
women in London 1t was written
by Rev. F. II. Gillin2ham. 'the
crickcrcr-parson,' who says he
counted that number of women go
into saloon in a quarter of an hour
in one of the poorer sections of
London He adds:
II don't suppose it continues all
day AZ this rate, but from many in
qGiries ] learn that during morning
and afternoon large numbers Of wom-

and one man who is an alderman III
a wc'l-known district told me he
had never seen so much drinking in
80 years as since the war began I"
The reason given for this increase
is the amount of money that the war
has brought to women whose hus-
bands are drawing separation allow
ances and to whom opportunities tor
labor have never been so plentiful.
