More Play for School Pupils

The School Trustees, acting upon the recommendation of the school faculty, recently or .dered a number of additional games or playing devices for the school grounds. There are to be two Giant Strides and two sixteen-foot Slides, one of each for the girls and one for the boys. In addition to these the older boys are supplied with a complete baseball outfit. The News heartily comments this action. The importance of play in the development of young humanity is coming to be more fully realized and the News expects to see the day when it will be placed almost, if not quite, on a par with the studies followed during school hours.

The spring cleanup started by the health notice of the city health officer, Dr. Jeffries, ac- complished a great deal for the cleanliness and sanitation of the town, but the good work is not yet complete. There are more back yards and alleys to be cleaned and it is to be hoped that the campaign will be kept alive until not one pile of filth is left to furnish a breeding place for flies, and for spread ing disease. Williams can be made f1y-less this season, and it will be so if every back yard and every alley is thoroly cleaned.

Abe, and if Mr.. Wilson keeps on

he would get some little newspaper
publicity out of it. and the second
time also perhaps. but on the third

column about it, and later on
when he lands from his third to

from the way this here newspaper

in Pans has got the idea that this

mainly to give newspaper reporters
chance to write home a lot of
snappy articles about Peace Confer

of course there is certain more or
less hbera-minded newspaper men

vately without a couple of hundred

well, of course, there is bound
