ENLIST TODAY
IN THE CLEAN
UP CAMPAIGN
Men, Women, Boys and
Girls Are All Asked to
Observe the Week

The clean up campaign began in
St. Johnsbury Monday morning and
one merchant who was busilv engag-
ed in cleaning up his alloy way said
the only trouble with the campaign
was that it wasn't pulled off every
week. A fund is being raised to pay
the local expenses and the Boy
Scouts and Girl Scouts are being en-
listed for the campaign. There are
five of these troops in town and
each one of the troops will receive So
for the weeks work. Any boy or girl
that works four hours during the
week will receive from the Cleanup
Committee a free ticket to the movies
Saturday afternoon.
One of the interestin~ features of
the week will be the production at
the Globe on Thursday evening of
"The Home Keeping of jim" Jim is
the hero in cleanup and paint-up
motion picture with a message and
a punch that originally appeared in
the Saturday Evening Post. The pic
turc consists of two reels lasting one
halt hour and will be shown bv Man
ager Graves Tin connection with the
Thursday night program.
Saturday afternoon the boys and
girls will have their innings and it is
planned to have them participate in a
parade led by the St. Johnsbury Band
as we'll as enjoy themselves at the
movies.
All this is incidental to the real
purpose of the week which is to make
St. Johnsbury more beautiful and
sanitary. Everyone should partici-
pate in this campaign and do his
share to brighten up his place, and
then not wait another year to, do it
again.

The NavIpenduIum.

One OF the problems which naval
architects have to confront is the roll
Ing of a ship on the waves, and the
"navipendulum" is an invention for
dealing with it experimentally.
The apparatus consists OF two
parts A plate TO which motion cor
responding to that OF portion OF the
surface of n wave is impaired, and a
pendulum of peculiar shape which
rolls upon the moving plate in the man
ner of a vessel supported by water.
The same pendulum can be made
to represent different vessels OF given
size and shape by adding or removing
artificial resistance TO the osclllatory
motion.
This instrument has been employed
to study the rolling Of the Italian bat
tleships as well as those of other
countries.

 MADE FIRST WH|SKEY

Assisted by Deputy Sheriff Blanco and Officer Walton of the city police. Constable Pickens of Mesa yesterday afternoon led a successful raid on the home of Sylvester Nelson, three miles northeast of Mesa on q ranch which netted a still, complete with coils and two and half gallons of 'moonshine whisky. Nelson was not at home at the time of the raid, but was arrested later in Mesa by Constable Pickens and brought to the county jail in Phoe- nix, where he is being held for arraign- ment.
 The whisky was found in glass fruit jars hidden in a trunk in a bedroom of the home. The jars were covered with clothing. A milk can was found in the yard. and in a sack in closet the officers found the top to the can and several f. ct of copper tubing. The top of the can was fixed with two connections so that two worms" could be operated at once. No mash was found. Nelson stated to the officers last night that this was the first whisky he had ever made.
