new COUNCIL Meets
Make Many Recommendations for
Summers Work.

The new council met on Tuesday
night and spent over three hours in
good discussion of the Immediate
needs of the village. Among the
subjects discussed were-animals
running at large, dumping of refuse
at roadside or short distance from
the road on private property, and
other subjects.
The cleaning up campaign to
cover the period from April 2lst to
May lst is especially worthy, and
we have no doubt but that all our
good citizens land we know of none
that are otherw1se) will be out with
their shovels and rakes dong their
part to clean up in and around their
premises. 1t is easy to say "weIl.
my premises are cleaner than my
ne'ghbor's without any cleaning' or
something like that, but there is no
question but that the council is in
earnest on this subject, and will see
that any delinquents will ':cume
across with the rake.
The question OF keeping chickens
penned up may seem far fetched, but
is in harmony with their order Of
cleaning up, and agitation for a
more attractive village. 1t is very
discouragng to try to keep garden
and then have it used for feeding
and scratching plot for someone's
chickens. We call attention to our
largest poultry raiser who has his
chicken coop and pens and one Of
the best of gardens side by side.
We have beautiful village, and
the coming summer will see more
tourist visitors then ever before,
let us therefor cooperate with the
village fathers in making Grand
Marais cleaner and prettier village
then ever before.

Getting Back at Him in Poetry.
Way up on the Reservation
Where the wind is full of air
There's man of observation
And We hope his wit you'd share.
When he travels o'er this county,
TO observe his hosts of friends.
We are in hope he will VIII the bounty
If he carries all his lens.
Beat hlm IN your great invention
Of course there is no use to try.
Franklin had no such intention
Though he brought lightning from the
sky.
Christopher Columbus was called a
dreamer
Because he said the world WAS round
If he kept in pace with Parsons sch4mpr
l tell You what he would have to
bound.
He sees a man from tree a falling
When he is asleep 10 miles away.
And when he hears his ne1ghbors calling
He swears it sure is Henry Clay.
He sees Washington still living
And every thing that conld be great.
But all these things could he forgiven
If he will keep the ladies' off his slate.
Now n. P. don't you be offended
OF course it all is just joke,
l only wish those "digs'' be mended
Yes I do I swear by gosh.
You see I got no education
Ispelled 1 gag backwards when went
to school
Or cannot compare with your observa-
ton,
Tho..do not claim to be fool.
