remains to put them into execution. The
season for outdoor life will soon be here
and it is quito reasonable and appropriate
that, as one will view exteriors for many
months to come, this side should receive
careful attention from sll property own
ers and dwelIers. What makes a town
look more inviting as tEe leaves put out
and delicate colors appear both in nature
and in custome than dwellings With
everything trim and clean about them?
Il is more than a matter Of aGtractiveuess,
it concerns she health of the community
quite az much. To a considerable degree
the work depends upon the individual
efforts Of the citizens whether q town il
kept in pI esentable condition or not. II
is possible for the officials to exert an en-
couTaging influence in these matters, if
they have the right disposition and a
pride in the place which has entrusted
them with authority. Begin with the
cellar, clear it of all deeaying vegetables
and other dirt and give the yards thor
ough raking, burn all the chips and filth
that will burn and bury old tin cans, bot
ties and other stuff fire will OF consume
It pays any town to keep itself tidy and
clean for the health of its citizens. Stran-
gers estimate the character OF a commuh-
ity by the pride il takes in itself. Don't
forget to repair your sidewalks. The
past winter has proven how necessary
this is. 1t will not cost much to put q
few loads of cinders, sand or gravel on
them to raise them to the level or fill in
the holes.
