CHANCE TO

Miss Constance Bennett BOT hei
chance today to inform a jury that
her thighs were among the most
beautiful in all HollyWood-perhap,
the most beautiful.
All she had to do was appear in
court to get the idea across to the
jurors. who examined the evidence
as carefully as they could. consider
ing the fact that Miss Bennett wore
a dress not nearly as snug as it
might have been The jurys prob
lem was to decide whether her
thighs were more beautiful than
those in the picture Willy Pogany
painted OF her.
Miss Bennett claimed that they
were. That, she said. was the prin-
cipal reason she refused to pay
Pogany's $500 bill for her portrait
in oils She said ne made her
thighs too fat and her waist too
thick and herself. in toto. look like
a sack of Portland cement with a

Folks. the Rambfn' Reporter is
always talking about hanging the
oleanders on some one. I would
like to tie EN- on the fellow that
got up the formula for Harris Cock
roach and Water bug tablets, for
they DO their stuff. I have never
seen cCckroaches and water bugs as
bad as they have been this year
but We sure got EN- on the run
now at our house.
There must be a leak in the old
pump. They have primed it and
still they can't get much water. We
used to tie a rag around the washer
in an old pump TO help out the
suction. 1t shouldn't be any trouble
to get rags.
LOOKS like with all the candidates
coming out fer governor some one

shouldn't be. then the old cry will
60 up. Vote to save California.

Warning that a citywide cleanup
campaign will start next week was
issued Wednesday by G. A. Bristol,
sanitary inspector, who attacked
laXity Of householders in allowing
garbage cans TO be turned over and
90 uncleaned. Starting next week,
Bristol announced, a special gar
bage truck will go into service and
all cases of laxity will get atten-
ton. A warning will be followed
by a court citation, he declared.
Penalty for violation of the ordi-
nance on garbage is a $500 fine or
80 days in the city jail.
During the summer months, par
ticularly. danger to the public
health from flies that flock to over
turned garbage cans is great. Bris-
tol declared, in explaining the rigid
enforcement planned.
In addition, warnings will be
made concerning trash allowed to
accumulate in yards. Garbage col
lectors have no authority to go into
yards to collect trash. Bristol said,
and therefore the responsibility lies
upon the householder to place trash
as well as garbage in the proper
place for collection.
The garbage ordinance royides:
1T shall be the duty of every
person within the city of FL
Centre to provide receptacles
for holding garbage. Each such yes
sci shall be constructed as
TO contain not less than three nor
more than 16 gallons. and shall be
provided with a handle and
a tight fitting cover. Such cover
shall not be removed, except when
necessary to place garbage therein,
or take garbage therefrom, and
when so removed shall be immedi-
ately replaced"
The ordinance also provides that
each can must be placed where
there is an alley. on the premises
within five feet Of the rear proper
ty line.
The cleanup campaign will be
continued at least week, Bristol
said
