PROCLAMATION.
Citizens Urged to Jcin in Cleanup
Campaign.

All persons owning or renting
property or in any way interested
in Union City and it's welfare are
asked to cooperate with your city
officials in making Union City a
clean, sanitary little o1ry. Just a
small bit of energy and expense on
your part can accomplish this. Don't
have your back yard or your alleys
as a dumping ground for old empty
tin cans, trash or unsanitary rub
Dish. There will be plenty of dump
ing ground furnished by the city,
and a very short haul to the same.
This will not cost you anything for
the place and your drayage will not
amount to much, so there is no room
left for cxsese. This ground will be
superintendent by man in charge,
and all persons are warned to OBJ
serve the rules of this ground. We
hope that we will have every man,
woman and child interested in this
work. Don't forget the date as set
out in proclamation below.
l hereby declare from April 4 to
April Is as the two weeks for clean
up weeks, and ask the cooperation
of every man, woman and child to
do something in this campaign.

Early in October repayments began coming in. and the work of collecting the loans has gone steadily forward since, in spite of the fact that the farmers are in but little better position than they were last year.

ANCIENT FORESTS IN
 DAKOTA.

Fossil plants are very abun- dant in the Fort Union format- ion, a series of Tertiary rock
 bed in North Dakota, where they are found in the sandstone, in the harder concretiOnS or lenses, and in the clay between the beds of sandstone. Most of them, especially those in the clay, are preserved with re- markable fidelity. About 300 species of plants from this formation have been described, and the total number of species it contains may perhaps reach 500 or more, according to the United States Geological Sur vey, Department of the Interior
 This abundant fossil flora shows that what is now an aI- most treeless plain was once covered with splendid forests of hardwoods, interspersed with scattered conifers and ginkgos. The presence of numerous and at many places thick beds of Ignite make it clear that in this region there were great swamps, which must have existed with but little change for long periods of time. Among the plants of this epoch were fig trees and a fan palm

ONCE upon time, dear children,
~ there was a darling little monkey
named Maurice. He lived all day on
the end Of string and he danced on
the sidewalks to a lot Of silly songs
played by his master, Joe Gazobo, on
fuddy -duddy hand organ (Johnny, get
off the piano.) 'N'
Although Maurice danced and capered
about all day, nevertheless, away down
inside Of his little monkey anatomy he
was very sad. He wished to do some-
thing more noble, more worth while
than merely making comic little ges-
lures all day long.
''How wonderful It must be to be a
man." Maurice would say. "How I
would like to be one Of those big, i'm
portant looking business men," and
then he would shake his head and lit
tie tear would fall on the sidewalk with
a splash.
ONE day when Maurice was feeling
~ particularly bitter and wishing
more than ever that he could be bust =
ness man, Joe Gazobo took Maurice and
his hand organ down to the business
section Of the city, and while he was
playing near one of the largest Office
buildings, Maurice suddenly jerked his

the side of the building.
He stopped on the ledge Of a seventh
floor window and looked inside. Dor.
othy, would you mind taking the dogs

you for both Of u.s.
There he saw a business man seated
at his desk.
The man picked UP some papers,
looked at them, and threw them down.
Then he grabbed up a little stick and
scratched the papers .madly. Then he
picked up something black and held
awful faces into the black thing. Then
he sat down in his chair and spun
around two or three times, picked up
more of the papers and piled them up,
then tore the pile down and threw most
Of them on the floor.
MAURICE watched him a long time.
A'l First, he was puzzled, then he
was surprised and finally he was ter
ribly disappointed.

he said. "Why, there isn't any more
sense to that than there Is to my funny
little gestures at the end Of my comic
little string. III he hasn any more
sense than to sit there making faces into
black things and picking up papers and
throwing them down all day, he's a
bigger monkey than I am

went to work with new contentment in
his heart.
''I'd rather be q monkey" said he.

DANG! sounded a gun far off in the

Jack and Janet stopped in their play

again.
"what is that2" asked Janet. "This
isn't the Fourth of July"
"Of course not" answered Jack.
THAT is the gun of hunter shooting
in the woods"
"what is he shooting at?" asked
Janet.
"At squirrels and ducks and rabbits
and partridge, or maybe at deer or
bear" replied Jack. II heard the men
at the store talking yesterday about
going hunting today. I'd like to go
hunting, too"
Would you like to shoot and kill
the poor squirrels and rabbits and
deer?" demanded Janet. Jack was
doubtful about that.
"well, anyway, I'd like to 20 hunt :
sng," he insisted.
III heard Mrs. Potter tell mother
about n still better way of hunting -
said Janet. Mrs. Potter goes hunting
with a camera and snaps pictures Of
birds and deer and bears instead Of
shooting them"
"That would be fun" agreed Jack.
'But we haven't any camera" -.

and tablets"
"And maybe we can get a bear that
way" shouted Jack excitedly.
Janet didn't fancy hunting a bear,
but she was eager to 60 hunting squir-
rels and rabbits, so she ran into the
house to get her drawing set while
Jack got his pencils and tablet. Soon
both were ready to go a-hunting.
''Ho, Toddie Pupkins! Ho, Johnny
Bull! We are going hunting in the
big woods" cried Jack to the dogs.
Toddie Pupkins and Johnny Bull came
bounding to them. barking joyously.
The dogs were keen to go hunting. So
were Trixie and Topsy, the Shetland
ponies. They snorted and quivered as
Jack and Janet bridled and saddled
them.
"Toddie Pupklns and Johnny Bull ran
ON ahead, shifting at the ground and
trying to find the tracks of birds or
beasts. Suddenly Toddie Pupkins let
ont yelp, "Ki-yi- -yi-yiw and away
he darted down side path.
And his nose was right, for soon
they came in sight of Mr.. Hoppity Hop

and Janet, riding the. ponies. clung
tightly to their pencils and drawing
tablets. Here was chance to catch
Mr.; Hoppity Hop Rabbit:

when he saw Mr.. Hoppity Hop Rabbit.
Mr.. Hoppity Hop Rabbit gave one
startled look around and away he went
in mighty bounds-bounds that carried
him over the ground so fast he looked
like n streak.
Stop" cried Janet. "Stop, we
want to drawn your picture!"
But Mr.. Hoppity Hop Rabbit didn't
want to stop to have his picture drawn
while two lively dogs were yelping after
him. He dived into a brush patch and
vanished from sight. When Toddie
Pupkins and Johnny Bull got there he
was down in his burrow far beneath the
ground, chuckling over how he had got
