Keep The Town Clean.

A clean tow attracts atten.
tion whenever and wherever it
is seen. A dirty one catches the
public eye in even less time.
When the streets and alleys
and yards and vacant lots in a
town are c,ean and sanitary it
bespeaks a like condition on the
part of the residents with regard
to their personal habits.
The Lord loves a clean pan or
woman, and the devil worships a
dirty one. Which do you pre-
fer?
If each person in this town
would use just a little more en-
,rgy and thnughtfulness we
| ;ould make this one of the clean.
st spots in the country and oul
reputation would grow apace.
Mt oily would we benet
hereby, but the health of TIN
munity would be vastly i'm
proved and the physical capacity
# the people would be greatly
increased.
