IMPROVEMENT is MOST MARKED
AS RESULT OF HERALD CONTEST

II You quote me at ALL" said Orson
II. Hewlett, vice president OF the Civic
Improvement league, and one of the
most active workers in the efforts 20
Deautify the city, Just say that we are
getting along splendidly. except thst
our sidewalk lawns are being sadly,
Very sadly, neglected. TbelieVe that we
are ahead of quite every city in the
United States of our age in the matter
OF beautiful premises, but I must con-
fcss that our sidewalk lawns need look
ing after. There ought 10 be something
done about bicyclists riding over the
grass. Grass and bicycle wheels won't
mix worth a cent. / hope this matter
will be the next to be taken uD by
those who would improve the city and
ut the same time improve the value Of
their investment.
so far as The Herald contest is con-
cerned. / must say that this years COM
petition has brought the most crafty
ing results. Last year we thought the
competition did d world of good: this
year we think it did two worlds If
good
ITO give you an idea of the results
that have been attained during the
year, l viii call your attention to some
Of the winners OF this year. Last year
q number of these came near to the
prize Spurred on by defeat. rather
than daunted, this year they come in
victOTs with margins to spare. 1t is
because they made up their minds TO
have the best and prettiest yards and
the pique of last years failure had
much to do with it,
There are many hundreds of people
in Salt Lake who do not have Deauti-
full yards for the silly and only reason
that their neighbOrs do not. No woman
is going to be outstripped in the neat
ness of her household arrangements, il
she can possibly help tit is dead
sure thing that she isn't going TO be
beaten by that Mrs. Jones next door
if her husband can stand a little extra
cOrkscrew work on pay day nights. So,
too, it is true of her front lawn and her
back yard. If Mrs. Jones goes after
The Herald prizes, there is no reason
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1907-08-11

why Mrs. Smith shouldn't and every
reason why she should Good naturad
rivalry in this matter has been OF the
greatest benefit.
II have taken an interest in civic
Improvement for a good many years.
When I first gave attention to the
identifying of the city, we found a
pretty bad state of affairs [ must con-
fess. By steadily keeping at it We have
now. believe, as pretty town as any
in the country. When the reconstruc-
ton of the street car lines is completed
and the paving laid, you will ne sur
prfsed at Salt Lake, tell you that
1t is not only the front yards that
I speak about-the yards that visitors
see, but as well the back yards. This
year I was quite astonished at the i'm
provement over last year. If there are
any more natty back yards in exist
ence than there are right here IL salt
Lake, l would like to know where they
are. There is still room for improve
ment. but we appreciate the fact that
the world wasn't made in a minute.
nor a desert made to blossom IN 2 day,
but we are making progress. The back
yard branch of this contest when il
comes down to brass lacks, is really the
thing To be considered. The front
yards, to a greater or lesser degree.
take care of themselves automatically,
but some people seem to think that a
back yard is just a place where every
thing should be thrown that is not
wanted in the house. 1t is often made
the receiving station for all kinds Ct
poisons and disease germs
but we are happily changing this order
of things and some of the back yards
look tempting enough to be called front
Yards.
I believe the people will appreciate
the efforts of The Herald to beautify
the city. The prize offers certainly
have been a stimulant. l have no means
of knowing whether The Herald in
tends to offer prizes again next year
but 1 hope it does. 1t is surely great
help. And then, too" concluded Mr.
Hewlett. with a smile, lit gives the
people a rest from eternal politics."
