 "Connecticut will be dirtier than il has been for many a day, and there | will be something for everyone to do | Yards, gardens and barnyards must | receive attention. The chicken cooI | and hog pen should be cleaned while
 heaps of rubbish, ashes and manure
 must be carted away. The cesspoo | and drain must not be overlooked, ana | if in need of repairs now is the time | it should be done, because it will no | be long before MT. Ely and MT. Mos quito will be around seeking summe,
 homes for their enormous families.
 "The two hundred health officers 0 | Connecticut have something to do
 Many people are thoughtless or negli

 Fortunately most people now knov
 the value of cleanliness and need onl'
 a suggestion to clean up. The mos
 frequent and the more forceful tn
 suggestions the greater the number o
 people that will be reached. For thi reason many of the cities and large communities have adopted the plal cleaning campaigns. By thus popu l larizing sanitary effort wonderful re suits have been accomplished.

NO OBJECTIONS
TO PATROL plan

NEW LONDON, Conn, Sept. 13.-
The last word on present border con-

for the protection of the information.
al boundary were laid before the Am.
erican and Mexican commissioners
here today General Tasker H. Bliss,
assistant chief of staff of the army,
presented to the commission the OBJ.
servations of his recent inspection
trip.
General Bliss advanced no objection
10 the general scheme about agreed
upon by the commission for the with.
drawal of the Pershing column. He
urged, however, that a considerable
portion Of American troops be EN-.
ployed In police duty along the Dor.
der. with the right granted by the Mex
ican government to pursue into Mexa
ico bands Of raiders who crossed into
the American border states and then
sought refuge in their own land
Twenty miles. General Bliss be-
lieved, would be sufficient for zone
of this sort. He saw no reason for
giving this same right to Mexican
troops, except to pursue lawbreakers
operating on the Mexican side who
attempted to escape by crossing into
American territory. Any other ar.
rangement, he pointed out, might
bring on serious conflicts OF authority
with the border states authorities.
