The Town Beautiful.

The beginning Of summer Is season
when the women of every village and
town in the country may we'll organize
work for the preservation and creation
of beauty. Streets, commons, school
yards, cemeteries, all need constant care
and in many towns there are no officials
who are entrusted with this duty. II
fact, the men who work on the roads toe
often destroy beauty when they should
protect it. Enlightened park commits
sioners now encourage the growth Of
bushes and small trees beside the high.
way at great expense; but in the country
regions these very bushes are cut away,
with a misdirected zeal for making
things tidy.
Ten women banded together into an
association for identifying and cleaning
the town can accomplish wonders.
There is a certain village where such
committee has wrought something like
miracle. They have put the sidewalks
in condition by picking off the stones,
cutting side drains, and keeping the turf
at the edge neatly clipped. Waste-bar.
rels have been set in different parts oil
the village; tney are emptieu tWlco q
week, and relieve the streets of the
hateful, wind-blown papers. The bill.
board nuisance has been abated. The
women have painted in pleasant green
an old covered bridge, which had been
disfgured with advertisements fol
twenty years. They have also set up
well-drained iron watering-trough, In
place of an unsanitary wooden one.
Finally, each of the ten women hai
cultivated an attractive flower-garden in
front of her own house, and taken down
the fence separating it from the street
Thus at one stroke they have forced the
citizens to keep cows and hens off the
streets, and built upa healthy emula'
ton in lawns and gardens, until in June
the whole village literally blossoms like
the rose.-The Youths Companion.
