PLANS EXTENDED
FOR CLEAN CITY
DR.. Woodward Explains
Need of Extra Force of
Cleanup Men.

In asking for additional sanitary in
spectors, Health Officer Dr. w. c.
woodward has in mind the continuation
on a larger scale Of the Campaign for
cleanliness" in the District Of Columbia
Encouraged by the success Of the cru
SADIE against the lunchrooms. Dr. Wood
ward desires TO e1tend the inspection
service to lodging houses and TO make
more frequent house to house lnspeC-
tons ir the alleys and slums.
I'VE were able to make only 4,204 house
10 house inspections in the alleys last
year because Of the lack Of men, said
Dr. Woodward today. This is too
small a percentage in a big city like
Washington. In many houses there are
three. four and five families quartered,
living independently OF one another and
cooking. eating and sleeping in its own
small rooms. These places must be
removed and we must have more men
10 do it."
DR.. Woodward announced today that
the Health Department viii begin within
q few days the enforcement Of the law
requiring the registration Of stables.
.'It is the desire of the department to
give proprietOrs an opportunity TO com
ply with the regulation after the no
tice is served, but the law in this re-
gard will be strictly enforced he said
The penalty for falling to register
IS a SO fine
Ommends that provision be made for the
collection Of stable refuse at public
expense, or at least through public
service at the expense Of owners.

show him the new home. Presently
they came to a group Of men each Of

tone asked: why, how is thisl |

In6delity assumes that unbelief in
the Bible is the result of ignorance

teachings of that book.

Then all the world would love Him too. -
Such ignorance however is in

people perish for lack of knowl-
edge" of God and eternal verities
it is because they will not investi-
gate. Judge Dewey was a member
of the Supreme Court of Indiana.
He was an unbeliever. An acct
dent confined him to his home for
six weeks. He improved his time
in a careful investigation of the
evidences of Christianity. He
determined to read on both sides
of the question and adjudicated the
case as impartially as if it were a
civil case before the court. Here
was a man of rare ability and legal
ing, and capable of weighing
& pce. He came out of his in
4gation a firm believer in the
Bible, and lived and died a
Christian man. Any man can
know the truth if he will investi-
gate, whether he be learned or I'M
learned.

/ have known men who were inh-
dels because their fathers with
more zeal than knowledge made
the Bible obnoxious. Many others
have been prejudiced against the
truth because of injuries received
at the hands of so-called Christian
men.
But whatever may have Ieen the
cause no one is capable of correct
investigation who is warped by
prejudice. Such person will be
partial in the attention bestowed
upon the subject and will read ten
books against the Bible to one in
its favor. They will swallow the
coarse vulgarities of Tom Paine's
Age OF Reason" and refuse to
read the unanswerable argument of
Bishop Watsons Reply to Paine.

NEW cow ORDINANCE.

Owners or cows would do well TO
remember that IL is a iolation of the
city ordinance to permit cows to
run al large on the streets OF the
city without an attendant between
the hours OF o'clock D. m. and 7
O'Clock a. m. The recorder has pub
lished notice that this ordinance will
be strictly enforced.
There are a great many citizens
who think the ordinance should abb
solutely prohibit cows running at
large within the city at any time.
1t goes without saying that unless
the owners OF cows recognize and
obey the present ordinance, which
permits them to keep their cows
with very little trouole, that an or
dinance will be passed prohibiting
cows running at large at any time.
1t Is believed that most people who
own cows are obeylng the ordinance
and keeping their cows up at night.
But there are still number OF
cows prowlinz around the streets
at all times OF the night ald the
owners OF these cows should forth
with hailed before Recorder Crock
ett and forced to contribute to the
city expense fund for their failure
to obey the ordinance.
