MUNICIPAL CLEANING.
Excellent Practice That Should Be
Made Permanent Custom.

II has become quite fad IN southern
California TO proclaim and observe GER
tain days as cleanup days, especially
In our smaller cities, our towns and
villages. On these days the mayor.
council, trustees, board OF health or
some constituted power or authority
has asked the residents 10 clean up
their yards and the streets and alleys
abutting. 10 beautify their premises,
plant and care for street trees and
strive I'm every way 10 make their com
munity more attractive and healthful
and therefore more valuable from a
realty point Of view.
The idea Is most excellent one and
should be encouraged In every way.
These public workdays should be OBJ
served In every community In our land
and should be made permanent setting
aside one day each month or one day
each quarter IN which all should aim
TO make the place more livable. Mu-
nicipal health and beauty mean wealth
both collectively and individually.
Home seekers are not attracted by dirty
and slovenly municipal housekeeping.
Cleanliness means or is capital, and It
