THE SPECTATOR.
Weekly Comments ON Things
About Town.


Hats on to the mayor. He Is
unique among public officials. He
wants political whitewash, but he is
ready to pay other people to apply
II to their own PREMISES and not TO
his record Something new under
the sum NEW let everybody get in
/ line and help. For we have awaken
ed to the need OF a city beautiful and
city healthful. and this is the best
scheme yet proposed to get both.
What we need is more civic pride A
man ought to have as much pride as a
citizen. as he has as an individual
Cleanliness and beauty are one of a
|eity's chief assets. Paducah cannot
AFFORD to go dirty and unkempt, any
more than business man can AFFORD
to neglect his personal appearance
The Spectator once had pointed out
to him the richest woman in America.
and she was dressed Ike a dowd, and
looked like fright. But only multi
millionaires or a tramp can afford
such negligence. AS a citizen, a man
ought no more to allow trash and rub
bish to accumulate on his premises
than he would allow uncleanliness on
his person. And a fence is to the
premises what collar is to a man.
whitewashed fences and clean linen
go hand in hand,-dirty fences and
neglected back yards bespeak no col
lar or celuloid one.
And then to think of the possibility
of 5000 trees being planted about
the city this year. Truly the action
of the mayor should be recommended
and co-operated with by every public
minded citizens.-by every business
man as adding valuable resources to
the city's assets, by the health loving
as an enormous step in advance to-
wards the city beautiful and the city
healthful.
But when we go in for tree plant
ing let us make haste slowly,-and
not set to work on the basis that
trees is trees" For instance, the
the city authorities have set out the
lombardy poplar about the city hall,
and in view of the. narrow space
allowed that species of tree was per-
haps the only thing that could there
be planted. But let not the citizens
therefore follow their example,-for
the lombardy poplar is considered by
tree experts as "the weed among
trees' which ought to almost be ex-
terminated,-it is short lived. liable
to disease. and the favorite breeding
place for the caterpillar plague. SO
let the committee having this matter
in charge. get information as to what
kinds of trees We ought to plant, to
suit this soil and climate, and publish
them at once for our instruction.
Some trees will not grow at all here
abouts. Others grow rapidly but are
very short lived and easily broken
by the winds which sweep over this
level country. Others still require
more than a generation TO attain any
size for shade purposes. Let us by
all means therefore plant the trees,
but let US take care what trees we
plant. aud where. We plant them. We
are planting for fhture generations.

Others will drive wagons and dump1
carts. Mrs. Letcher Riker, president
