Decided Improvement Already Mo-
 ticed in Some Sections of the City
 The residents of Norwich in gen. eraI seem to be cooperating in the Cleanup Week movement and already there is a decided improvement in some localities. The street department have placed the use of their carts at the disposal of Norwich residents and will willingly cali for any rubbish that has been collected in barrels. Thurs of the cleanup week committee of the City Beautiful association of the Norwich Board of Trade, stated that plans are being carried out according to the, arrangements made, which are in effect the same as last year.
 A local resident offers the following suggestions for not only cleanup week but for every week and every day in the year:
 Would you like to have your own front walk, your porch, your parlor pee1ings, burnt matches, cigar and ci- garette stubs, discarded envelopes and 8 thousand and one other varieties o1 I4zzt+ar?
 Would you consider desirable guest any person who had habit o1 scattering such things around youl house?
 Falls of all kinds contribute more accidental deaths and injuries thar any other single type of mishap. great many falls are occasioned by slipping.
 Fruit peelings under any conditions; | cigar or cigarette stubs or bits of pa. per on a wet day are fertile causes oi dangerous accidents.
