ment in the civic work that seems
splendid one. Instead of pointing out
the unsightIy spots in the city, and
calling attention to the dirty alleys,
trash piles and tin-can heaps, the pol
lev of the Times-1erald Is to compli-
ment every clean backyard, every
welI.kept lawn. every vine-covered
wall. every beiowered border. that
can be found. From every window
box that Is abloom to brighten
downtown district, to the green velvet
lawns around the palatial homes on
Austin aud Columbus streets-ail
come in for share of praise when
an extra effort in civic pride and i'm
provement make them noticeaDly
beautiful. Bryan may learn lesson
from her neighhor Let us, as indi-

our own homes, for our own flower
borders. for our own lawns, and for
our own sidewalk. Let US
Use well the moment
What the hour hold for our use is In
