CLEAN UP AND PAINT UP
A CONTINUOUS CAMPAIGN
Suggestions for Making Our Town Better Home
Town-Chairman of National Bureau
Says Start Now and Keep 1t Up
the Year Round.

CfNCE Hercules diverted the river
ny to renovate the Augean stables
NClean Up" has had its place in
the worlds vernacular. With Spring
the desire to refurbish comes sub
consciously into the hearts of men
and women, and communities. But
without direction and sustained effort
the expression of that desire, in the
form OF the ordinary Clean Up Day"
or Week, is apt to result in super
hcial sally against filth.
Years ago Allen w. Clark. a St. Louis
editor, made up his mind that this
natural Clean Up" instinct could be
turned to account, that it could De
developed into a real campaign work
ing toward definite ideals and accom-
plishing permanent results. And so,
in May 1912, Mr.. Clark founded the
National Clean Up and Paint Up"
Campaign Bureau, with headquarters
in ST. Louis. He hoped that thor
ough-going movement, national in it's
scope and practical in it's principles,
might take the place of the annual
bath" idea as expressed in the old-time
+clean up day" or week"
A National Civic Movement.
4ional Bureaus service has rapidly ex-
tended until this year it is co-operat-
ing with more than 5000 local COM
munities in the organization and di-
rection of real Clean Up and Paint
Up campaigns, not days" or
weeks" Continuous campaigns for
homes and hometowns beautiful. sani-
tary and safe, conducted by permanent
committees, and involving the coop
Grafton of city and town officials, club
women, commercial organizations, the
children fire prevention interests, all
business men and property owners,
is the goal aimed at by all of the
National Bureaus propaganda.
Mr.. Clark declares that the bane of
any community is the citizen who
lacks even a semblance of interest in
the community, and that, strange as
1t may seem in a democracy. absence
of this interest seems to be pretty gen
orally prevalent in the average Ameri-
can community. Such citizen would
have THE Town or THE City, what
ever those names may signify when
the body of citizens is eliminated,
keep the streets and alleys clean, pre-
serve the public and individual health.
eliminate nuisances, make everything
in town spick and span and satisfac-
tory-while the citizen sits back and
looks on.
The real "Clean Up and Paint Up"
campaign. organized on the plans af
the National Bureau, gives everyone
something definite to do to help make
their hometown beautiful, sanitary
and safe. And the campaigns edu-
cational influence should work stead
lily the year round and year after
year, automatically eliminating many
nuisances caused formerly by careless
ness or thoughtlessness of property
owners and tenants.
A Suggestion for Our Town.
The methods for accomplishing all
I of this suggested by the National Blu
reau are well illustrated by a brief de-
scription of the local campaign or

Of Women's Clubs
VVYOMEN are housekeepers They
w are apt to see more clearly the
need of municipal housekeeping
than are men. Through our clubs we
have an excellent opportunity to lead
in Clean Up and Paint Up" work Here
are some pointers for women who
would help degenerate their commu-
nifty with a real Clean Up and Paint
Up campaign:
Each campaign involves the renova-
ton of the interiors of buildings as
well as yards. streets and alleys.
The removal of all rubbish and use
less things is most important.
Some revenue can be derived from
the sale of waste paper.
During the ';Clean Up and Paint Up"
campaign is a good time to have rub
bish cans placed upon street corners,
for the deposit of paper.
Nothing will do more to improve the
appearance of a town than the liberal
use of paint.
Useless and unsightly outbuildings
should be torn down.
Business houses need attention. Rub
bish accumulates in cellars, under
stairways, in storeroops, paSsageways,
and in the rear of hotels and restau-
rants. Look out for RATS here.
A clean yard is not sufficient: it
should be pleasing to the eye. Plant
grass and flower seeds. Sod bare spots
in lawns. Plant shrubs, vines and
trees
The thresholds of a town should be
made inviting to the visitor.
This is a good time to find out about
the sanitary ordinances of the town.
How about the regulations in regard
to garbage collection, the use of closed
garbage cans, manure piles, splitting,
toilets, ETC.? Are they adequate? Are
they enforced? Appoint a committee
on this subject. Have the ordinance
published and distributed widely
1t, is very important that the "'Clean
Up and Paint Up idea be impressed
upon the minds OF school children.

more reason for a real Clean
Up and Paint Up" campaign
than the average layman would
at first recognize.
Paint. as has often been said,
serves more than the mere pur-
pose of decoration It's principal
value lies in the fact that it pro-
longs the life of the surfaces
painted
Wood and. iron, on exposure
to the air, undergo a slow proc
ess of oxidation, which Just as
surely destroys them as though
they were set on fire, the diff
ference being the speed at which
the reaction occurs.
We take out insurance to COW
er loss by fire and should just as
surely put on paint to cover loss
by decay. 1t takes very little
calculation to discover the APP
parently astounding fact that
the loss through lack of paint
ing is greater in Kansas than
the loss by fire.
When the property owner
comes to a full realization of the
true reason for painting there
will be no need for public-spir-
tied people to back up a Ma

pose.

City Has
to Dig Up
$4,000

Prosperity along the water
front today cost the city of Ia
coma lump sum of $4,000, In
a most unusual manner.
Five years ago, on request Of
waterfront property owners.
16-inch water main was laid on
the north shore, beyond Old
Town, for fire protection.
A clause was inserted providing
that the property owners should
pay the initial cost, but that the
city should refund to them IA per
cent of the money as soon as the
main began to pay an earning on
the investment.
A few days ago property own
ers appeared at the city hall and
asked for their IA per cent. The
ordinance was investigated. In
vestigation showed that, with
the reopening of waterfront mills,
such large supply of water was
being used from the main that It
had begun to pay revenue.
Today the council issued war;
rants for the IA per cent, which
amounts to $4,000. OF this sum,
$2,926 goes to the Northern
Pacific.

Attorney lmpeached

NASHVILLE, Tenn, April %.
Judge Jesse Edgington Of the
Memphis criminal court and Dis
trict Attorney u. Newton Estes
have just gone on trial before
Chief Justice M. M. Neil of the
supreme court on sensational i'm
parchment charges that grew out
of one of the most violent politi-
cal upheavals in the history of the
state.
1t is the first time within a
generation that an impeachment
trial has been held in Tennessee.
Judge Edgington is charged
with accepting two $1,000 brides
from two brewery agents, Peter
Monteverde and James Il. Coan.
It is charged he modified injunc-
lions issued against the businesses
of the agents. District Attorney
Estes is charged with borrowing
money from brewers and saloon
men who operated in a prohibit
tion state.
The impeachment trials are the
aftermatch of a political war
which resulted in the ousting of
former Mayor E. H. Crump and
other city and county officials OF
Memphis.
The impeachment of Estes fol-
lowed closely the arrest of Editor
Leech of the Memphis Press on a

the charges made by the news
paper were those on which the
officials are now on trial before

Would Have All Doctors
Work As State ( mpl0yes

SPOKANE, April 25.-Dr. H.
p. Marshall, one of Spokane's
highest medical authorities, pro-
poses state medicine"
He says his plan is going to be
put into effect eventually, though
1t may be a few years coming.
BY DR.. Marshalls plan, all pri-
vate practice would be eliminat-
ed, and the medical profession
would be regulated by the state
in an organization operated on
much the same lines as the army.
Doctors would receive no
fees for their work; they
would work only a prescribe
ed number of hours q day,
and they would be advanced
Or denoted according to
their merit.
Every individual in the state
would be required to pay nom
inal hospital fee annually, and
with the fund thus formed the
medical system would be main
tanned.
The Tacoma times. [volume] (Tacoma, Wash.) 1903-1949, 1916-04-25

Here Is the big punch to DR..
Marshall's plan:
EVERY INDIVIDUAL IN THE
STATE WOULD BE ENTITLED
TO MEDICAL ATTENTION
WHEN HE NEEDED 1T, AND 1T
WOULDN'T COST HIM A CENT,
ASIDE FROM THE ANNUAL
FEE.
"There are hundreds
perhaps thOusands-of men
today who are being denied
the medical attention they
should have, because they
are broke and friendless,"
said the doctor.
"SOme of them need a
trained nurse or two. In
stead of that they have the
inadequate services of a
worn-Out wife, or they go
without care. Perhaps they
die, when a little attention
would have saved them.
