street," is the constant query of the
tireless sweepers.
LET me do the Greeks alley, Miss
Hancock. Sam Johnson's too little to
do it all alone" one ambitious white
wing" urged. He wanted to make 10
cents. for he had in mind kite In
the corner store, and he knew the
Creeks alley was profitable under
taking.
"The combined beauties of this
work" said Miss Hancock as she in
structed recruit in the art of sweep
ing out corners, sis that it develops In
the children a sense of civic pride and
the quality of thoroughness. If they
are ever property owners or have
homes to care for they will not shirk
their responsibilities 10 themselves and
the community at large by neglecting
to keep them outwardly as well as In
wardly clean"
Less eerie than their predecessors,
the uncanny little sweeps Of London,
who were dear to the heart OF Charles
Lamb, but just as picturesque and use
full, these amateur white wings are the
product of our inadequate municipal
management. but they have solved IN
their small way the dirty street prob
lem. though the bureau of street clean
ing does not know OF its valuable aux
iliary.

BOYS rs WHITE WINGS.
Eiss Corneiia Gancock's "Broom Brt.
gade" of Little Negroes.

Charles Lamb laments in touching
language the disappearance of the
chimney sweep and If he were alive
today to see Miss Cornelia Hancock's
"broom brigade" the essayist would
doubtless indite immortal words of
praise.
This brigade is unlike any other body
of cleaners in Philadelphia. 1t Is a
move that any town can follow with
profit.
The brigade is made up Of twenty
five little negro boys from the colored
settlement, 900 Locust street. and Miss
Hancock is the brigadier general, says
the Philadelphia North American.
Armed with all the implements that
the regular white wings" use. the
brigade sallies forth every Monday,
Wednesday and Friday afternoon to
scour up the alleys and courts be-
tween Walnut, Spruce, Ninth and
Broad streets.
1t must do its work well. Otherwise
there is no pay. That pay, to be sure
Is not large-only cents an alley, with
a tax Of a cent per laborer in order
that there may be fund to replace
wornout brooms-but the results are
excellent.
They must observe the street clean
ing ordinances as well as or better than
the real employees Of the city. They
must keep the inlets free from dirt
must gather up all refuse in a wheel
barrow, sprinkle the street before they
sweep 1t and comply with all the regu
lations. Any infringement meets with
stern reprimand, and work poorly
done must be done over.
Constant supervision has fostered 9
sense of responsibility in these small
citizens, who are being trained In The
ways Of civic pride, and they vie witt
one another in leaving their alley
spotless.
