Editor News:
1t costs time, care, energy and some
money to keep premises, alleys,
streets and vacant lots clean, but it
costs doctors bills, suffering and death
to neglect to keep these places clean.
The end of our troubles is not yet,
for gross carelessness is constantly
apparent to even casual observation.
Fly time is here and so are the flies
in innumerable hordes, swooping down
upon decaying garbage left open to
them and then slipping into the home
of the vigilant housewife to leave
filth and disease in its trail.
Could we as public-spirited citizens
make an appeal strong enough to
arouse our commissioners to action in
this matter? Refuse stuff from store
and shop and stand is thrown out into
alley and street or put into open
garbage vessels and left to attract
flies. Is it too much to ask that the
houses on our main business streets
be required to keep covered garbage
and waste boxes?
Our streets present, even on Sun
day, an appearance offensive to the
eye and dangerous to the public
health. Couldn't we at least clean VI
for Sunday?
We promised house to house In
spection and are sadly disappointed
that this work was not done as We
had reason to believe it would be.
There are some people who do mo-
know how to be clean; there are many
who know how to be clean but are
careless. All people can bear being
looked after in this matter and We
need a city sanitary inspector for the
job. Citizens who obey the laws O
hygiene and sanitation are they WHIT
need this inspector and are they wht
should demand one.
We have laws that should safe
guard us against discomfort, discredi
and disease. These laws are constant
ly being violated. Let's put on maj
whose sole business 1t is to see tina
they are respected. Club Member.
