tation for their splendid efforts in

member Of the Good Fellowship Club
entertainment committee, introduced
P. r. Mcdowell, as the toastmaster

the slogan: "Clean-Up, Paint-Up,
Keep it Up" Let every citizen do
their share in making our town q
cleaner and better place in which to
live, by joining in the activities Of the

This is worthy cause for which
to set aside an entire week. The ''this

ing quite popular. Julesburg will not

health and appearance, but will be one
Of the foremost to carry out its deter
mined and systematic plan of six
days activities.
1t is challenge to the civic con-
science of Julesburg to stir itself
from its winter lethargy and discard
its community red flannels.
Each day is set aside for some par
ticular phase Of work, thus systema-
tizing the six days with the intention
Of making the week more generally
observed than ever. This evident de-
termination to make this special
week stand for something truly bene-
ficial should be greeted with enthus-
iasm by every member of the COM
munity.-
The school children will take part in
this spring cleaning, town-beautifyins
campaign. The grades from the
fourth up will compete for a prize OF
a picture for their room, and the
younger ones in the lower grades for a
