Clean Up and Paint Up

G PRlNGTIME has at last come to

summers flowers and the autumn's
harvest.

wretched premises, plant morning
glorles and try their best to fix

mornings. Good housewives tie tow

narrow skirts and chase the dust OF
winter from their rooms. The LATEST
pick and trifle with their belongings
to fix themselves better to face the
changing seasons.
Clean up!" is the phrase.
Why not enlarge it? Why not paint
up?"
And if paint up" why not do it so
it will LAST and PAY?
Painting is another "art preserva.

A WORD FROM THE
WOMEN

Say! amt it funny what a lot of things
men overlook.
They seem to feel we women never do
a thing but cook
They really think they run the house
and everything that's in it.
But gee! they couldn't get along with
out us for minute.
We women are the ones who keep the
woodwork shining bright
Who buy enamel for the bath to make
it glistening white.
We women varnish tables and we buy
the stains for chairs,
And we buy the proper colors to
brighten up the stairs.
We women are the ones who say what
paint goes on the halls
Which shades for parlor and for den
for baseboards and for walls.
We women stain and wax the floors,
or else we make the man.
We women are the ones who keep the
whole towB spic and span.

Club Women Work to
Clean Up and Paint Up
Five Thousand Cities
CIVIC LEADERS PUT BAN ON
PINK TEAS.
Clean Yards, a Few Shrubs and
Flowers, and a Little Paint,
for a Better Hometown
Mrs. Clarence Baxter.

THAT the club women of America
are not waiting for full suffrage
before taking an active part in
civic betterment work is proven by
the earnest efforts of thousands of
women in local "Clean Up and Paint
Up" campaigns in practically every
state in the Union. The men are too
busy, or too chesty," said one of these
women, Ito see the need of or to do
simple Identification and sanitation
work. And yet that work is vital to
the health of thousands and to the
progress of the community in better
living conditions to keep pace with
increasing population"
There was a time," she continued,
when pink teas and gossip character
lied our local club meetings. But that
time is past. There are a million
things for the betterment of the town
that we are able to do, and we are
trying to do them as fast as we can
get to them. The Clean Up and
Paint Up campaign, in which we are
working shoulder to shoulder with the
men, embodies big batch of i'm
provements we have had in mind.
This campaign seems to be a for
tunate combination of ideals, Clean
Up and Paint Up 1t gives US work
to do now, with a definite program to
start things off, and with absolutely
no end of possibilities in permanent
constructive effort. And the best Of
it is that this campaign simply forces
the men to work with us. a success
full campaign means an increased de-
nand for many kinds of merchandise,
means conservation of property, means
Increased realty values-it means a
better business town and better
home town. Why shouldn't the men
lend a hand"
And this woman is not alone in her
enthusiasm. Mrs. Clarence Baxter,
chairman of the Womens Committee
Of the National "Clean Up and Paint
Up" Campaign Bureau, st. Louis, has
seen her home town, Kirksville, Mo-,
refurbished from the city hall to cor
poration limits entirely through the
earnest work of group of women. AS
chairman Of the civic and health de-
partment of the Missouri Federation
of Women's Clubs, and as vice chair
man Of the civics department of the
General Federation of Women's Clubs,
Mrs. Baxter is inspiring and advising
thousands of club women in similar
work. She will be glad to write to
and advise others.
