without exception covered, and and the
rain barrels had also proper protection.
Nearly everyone burnt all trash which
could be disposed of in that way, and
in not single yard were there tin
cans or scraps of paper seen. Every
kind of yard was visited from the
beautiful terraced garden with its
cemented lilly pond and fountain, and
birds bath. to the little strips of ground
belonging to the hard working colored
people, and it was found that a fair |
proportion of the latter deserved prizes
for neatness and improvements. The
civic spirit shown by the donor of the
prizes is worthy of note and the Civic |
League of Charles Town wishes that |
some public spirited citizen here would |
do likewise. The following received
SIS. 90 gold pieces Mrs. Louis Baker.

Ial mention for the number of shade
