A PROCLAMATION

Help your Board OF Health keep

the Village healthy place In which
10 live. Good health never resided In
Nth and never will Manure piles

the natural breeding grounds OF flies
and these pests are the carriers OF
disease producing germs. We can
keep the flies al minimum this year,
as we have In other years, by remoy-
ing all accumulations OF manure from
the Village and destroying other re-
fuse matter by burning. Make full
use OF the garbage cans with which
each resident Is provided and keep the
covers tightly fitted TO the cans. The
Board OF Health Is making effort TO
promote and conserve the good health
OF the community and demands OF the
people an equal endeavor.
SATURDAY, APRIL %, has been
officially designated by the Village
Council as Clean Up Day" Put
your lawns and yards in order by re-
moving from them the waste matter
OF winter, beautify your grounds by
the setting out OF flowers, the plant
ing OF shrubs and OF trees.
May ], all alleys will be inspected
and manure piles and other accumu-
lations found on that date will be re-
moved by the Village at the direct
expense OF the owner.
Boost your home town by keeping

One OF the new bills to carry out
the idea OF reforming state admins
tration generally has been introduced
by Rep. Wells. OF Cass county. II
would place all prisons of the state
under a board OF three members. each
of whom would devote his time to the
work at salary OF $4,000 year.
TRe wardens would be named by and
be subject TO this board. The present
boards OF control would be abolished.
The application OF city traffic laws
to suburban and township conditions
is the objective OF several motor and
vehicular bills that have been tossed
into the legislative grist mill. One
bill would require that all motor
trucks. whether travelling in the city
or country, be provided with mirrors
to observe traffic following them. An.
other would require tail lights on all
vehicles. horse-drawn as we'll as mo

One Of the most popular. most in
dustrious and typically American
writers Of the day, is Randall Parrish.
He deals largely in plots Of romance,
mystery and adventure. Frequently
the setting is in the West, but not
always. His latest story "The Mys-
terry Of the Silver Dagger" is laid in
the East and introduces new char
acters and incidents. One Of it's un-
usual angles is the mystery with
which he surrounds the principal
female participant. You do not dis
cover until the final chapter whether
she is dangerous criminal. foreign
plotter. a secret service agent or just
a normal, sweet American girl acting
from high sense Of duty. Such un-
certainty adds TO the charm Of the
narrative. II will be offered soon as
a serial in these columns. BE sure

~ NJ ~, }cl snowy" and
Vv< <iF5SJ is taken from
NSstssE4H the Sierra
xYdue~ N vadas,
those lofty mountains which sep
arate the State from California.
Most OF the history OF the state
centers in this Western section,
near the Slerras. and IL is here
that all of Nevada's principal
cities are located.
The first white man TO cross
the present state was the Fran
ciscan Monk. Father Cares, who
made his way across the deserts
TO California In 1775. In 1926
Peter s. Ogden Of the Hudson's
Bay company discovered the
Humboldt river, which is some
times called Ogden river after
him.
The next memorable trip
across the state was that by
Fremont In 1843. when he went
TO California at the time OF the
outbreak of the Mexican war.
IL was this war which In 1S4S
resulted In Mexico ceding large
area to the United States. OF
which Nevada was a part. When
this was organized into terri
tories, the Territory OF Utah ex-
tended to California. The West
ern inhabitants. however, were
left TO their own resources and
accordingly organized their own
government. Resenting the at.
tltude of Utah they petitioned
to be annexed TO California. /!
In 1859 the Comstock Lode
was discovered and Nevada had
Its own mining boom. Popula-
tion Immediately grew by leaps I
and bounds and In 1851 Nevada ]
was formed into a separate ter
ritory. Later. portions OF Utah !
were added and the lower part I
OF the state was taken from Ari- I!
zona. Petitions for statehood I
were made but II was not until I!
1864 that Nevada became the !
thirty-sixth state OF the Union. :
Though Nevada ranks sixth !.
In size with It's area OF 10000 (!
square miles, IL has the smallest J
population OF any OF the As I
states. Between 1900 and 1900 /.
there was marked decrease in I
the population due TO the falling
off OF mining industry.
