to keep it that way throughout the
entire year," says the New England
committee.
The New England committee is es-
pecially pleased at the great inter

beautiful.
Last year, in nearly every local
campaign, the women's clubs took a
prominent part, and it was largely
due to the cooperation of the wom-
ems clubs that the different cam
paigns achieved the measure of sue
cess that they did.
At meeting held in city hall, Bos-
ton, March rs, for the purpose of or
ganizing the Boston Clean Up COM
mittee, there was very large at
tendance of city officials and citizens
including many women from the diff
ferent women's clubs in metropolitan
Boston, and after a thorough discus
sion OF ways and means of carrying
on the Boston Clean Up week cam
paign, the meeting organized itself
into committee of the whole and
elected Mrs. Frank L. Young chair
man.
Mrs. Young is the president of the
Boston City federation. She is a
very public spirited woman who has
always taken a great interest in every
effort for civic betterment, and no
better selection could be made for
chairman of the Boston Clean UP
committee.
In taking the chair Mrs. Young
said this movement must not move
like the old-time freight train. the
cars no faster than the locomotive.
BE up to date and let the move
ment be an automobile one, self
starting movement, each working

Committee
All of New England is catching the
spirit Of tidiness. Joseph N. Baker,
secretary of the New England Clean
Up and Paint Up Campaign Commit
tee, P. o. Box 1924, Boston, reports
that information relative to the Clean
Up and Paint Up week idea has been
mailed to over 1000 cities and towns
in the New England states.
The New England committee Is
composed of representatives from
twenty leading trade organizations
who have endorsed this concerted eff
fort for Cleaner, Brighter and Hap
pier New England.
This campaign has received the cor
dial endorsement of such public men
as Governor David 1. Walsh Of Mas
sachusetts, Governor r. l.. Beck
man, Rhode Island; Governor Oakley

the owners did not clean up, and the
central committee were to write let
tiers to these property owners, asking
them to clean up their places, and in
case this did not bring the desired re-
suits, the conditions were to be re-
ported to the city officials Or the
board of health, to see if some pres
sure could not be brought to bear.
The general plan of publicity, to
arouse the citizens to cooperate dur
ing Clean Up week, was as follows:
A proclamation by His Honor,
Mayor Curley.
Notices read in churches and post
ed in church vestries.
House to house circulars, same be-
ing distributed by the employees OF
the public works department when
making their removal of ashes the
week before Clean Up week; some
100 200 of these circulars, many in
foreign languages, were distributed
in this way.
Dasher signs on all OF the street
cars in Boston.
Team signs on all the city wagons
and other trucking teams.
A letter from the school commit
tee was sent to the principal of every
public school, to be read to the pu-
pills, asking them to do their part in
Clean Up work.
A set of fifteen lantern slides was
placed at all the large moving pic
ture shows in the city.
A parade Of school children in the
West End, headed by the school boys
band, contributed much publicity in
that section.
One hundred thousand business
mems circulars were distributed in
the wholesale section Of the city by
members Of the Under Forty division
of the Boston Chamber of Commerce

w. Gates, Vermont; Lieutenant Gov
ernor Grafton D. Cushing, Massa-
chusetts; ex-Governors John l..
Bates and Curtis Guild, Massachu-
sets; George w. Anderson, United
States attorney, who are honorary
members of the New England COM
mittee.
The method employed by the New
England committee to interest the
different cities and towns in this
campaign idea has been to distribute
broadcast through New England, by
having wholesale merchants send
same out with their mail, a little
folder containing invitation to mer-
chants, tradesmen, etc., to inter-
est themselves in the idea and form
local Clean Up and Paint Up COM
m1ttees; letters of invitation have also
been sent to business mems associa-
lions, women's clubs, selectmen and
others, inviting them to join in this
good work

The merchants CT the CITY ga.2 tn
newspapers OF Boston a double s3rea
OF pages OF advertising clean 10 al
ticles. These were run wilh larg~
headings across the top Clean u.
and Paint Up This Week. -
Retail stores dressed their SHOW
windows with Clean Up articles anG
appropriate signs during the week.
Many letters were sent to owner;
of vacant lots, asking them to clean
same up and stating that il they could
not conveniently attend to same, il
they would send So to the commit
tee they would employ a man to
clean the lot up and put it in good or
der. Some out Of town owners OF
city vacant lots sent the money in
this way.
A feature of this years Clean Up
and Paint Up campaign as conducted
by the New England committee has
been an earnest effort to render aid
on the unemployment problem. About
February first this committee re-
sponded to invitation received from
the state executive committee on I'M
employment for cooperation. With
IN forty eight hours about $4,000 cir
culars we're put in circulation inviting
property owners generally to help the
unemployed by starting just as early
as possible all inside work, Repair
ing, Cleaning, Painting, Alterations
etc. This assistance resulted in con-
siderable cleaning being started. I'M

men whose families were needy.

central committee was to organize y

as its chairman and do the general
supervisory work in his district.
The members of these sub-comm1t-
tees were supposed to first make
thorough inspection of their dis
trict and note down all specially un-
tidy or unsanitary places, including
vacant lots that needed special at
tention, inviting the owners to CO.
operate by cleaning up; then they
were to obtain from the central COM
mittee signs, posters and advertis-

vestries, stores and various places in
their district, where they would be
of advertising value. To report to

The aim of the committee is not
to benefit any one branch of trade,
but to add to the prosperity and hap
piness of the whole community.
The title "Clean Up and Paint Up
is the one under which the movement
started in st. Louis in 1912, and it
was thought best to cooperate with
the national bureau and use this
title, as it tells the property owners
plainly just what is wanted in each
community.
"The beauty of New England cities
and towns is proverbiaI. This sec
ton has high reputation throughout
the country for cleanliness and thrift.
and we should all endeavor to main
tain that reputation.
"Here is an opportunity for every
citizen of New England oman, wom-
an or chilly not only to show his per-
sonaI pride, but also his civic pride,
No city or town is attractive if it is
dirty, Uttered up or implanted,

ance of this work and assisting when
necessary. Let us all work toqetFer

by the citizens committee in Boston
last year, is good one for any local
committee to follow. Briefly stated
this plan is as follows: We quote
from the report made by that COM
mittee:
This committee was organized
March II, 1914, and consisted of one
representative from each of the eleven
sanitary districts into which the city
is divided. Mrs. Thomas SherWin was
chairman and Mrs. G. A. o. Ernst
