Let's have "ciean up day. or
else imbibe the spirit that pervades
everywhere at this time of year. In
all sections of the country, cities, vii
lagos and towns are setting aside one
day and designating the same as ''clean
up day." That is, on that day all resi-
dents make special effort to clean up
yards and alleys and the cities and viii
lagos clean up the roads, streets and
public places. Clean up and paint up.
That is a civic prescription that is
worth while. Cleanliness is akin to
godliness. You have heard that enough
to convince you of its truth, but we
sometimes overlook truth by reason
of its sheer familiarity, or at least fail
to profit by it as we should. Clean
