CLEAN-UP-WEEK

Cleanliness is next to Godliness" This week
is cleanup week in Saint Paul. We must do our
duty and help Saint Paul maintain her reputation
as a clean city,
The dates for the campaign We're announced
by Commissioner Wenzel more than two weeks
ago. Ample preparations have been made by the
Health Department to remove all rubbish, and we
believe that the public has prepared to aid in MAX
ing Saint Paul, the Clean City.
Everyone must clean their yards and especial
ly the alleys in which ashes and refuse have been
thrown during the winter months Health in
spectors have been visiting different communities
the past week and report that some alleys are al
most impossible because of the rubbish. These
must be cleaned during the clean-up-week All
those who fail to comply with these orders will
be punished, according to statements issued by Mr.
Wenzel last week.
We hope that no one in Saint Paul will have
to be punished because they are too lazy to clean
up their own places. 1t is no trouble whatever and
we trust that everyone will clean up their yards
and alleys during the week of April 1922

Holley has not yet passed the mental and physical
examinations requisite to admission may be that
this will keep him from the appointment Also bill

keep him out.
But if he does get academy there is certain
