L COuIu SCI We NY Guilty " -
CLEANUP EEK-This is
Cleanup Week" which is intend
ed to be a week of strenuous effort
toward getting rid of the dirt and
rubbish that have been piling up dur
ing all the winter months.
Cleanup Week" also means an
enthusiastic beginning Of a whole
summer of clean up effort. It means
that we will not quit the job when
the seven days have gone by. 1t
means that we are going to clean up
and keep clean all the time.
Yes, "Clean up and paint up" is to
be the slogan in Chicago from Evans
ton on the north to the Indiana state
line on the south. Mayor Thompson
has issued his proclamation to that
effect, and from April % to April 80
Chicago will have such a going over
as it has never had before. In his
message to the people of the city the
mayor urges them to keep in a clean
and sanitary condition their homes,
places of business and all premises
owned and occupied by them. clean
up, scrub, paint and whitewash. Also
remove and destroy all rubbish on
your own and vacant lots nearby. Let
air and sunshine into your homes
and places Of business. Plant win
dow boxes and gardens. All depart
ments of the city will cooperate with
the people in this work.
As to the paint-Up side of the cam
paign, while it may have no direct
bearing on the health of a cOmmu-
nifty, yet it has a distinct value in any
scheme of community betteTment. It
is hard to make a dingy neighbOr-
hood look clean. Painting homes
removes dinginess, makes them
bright, clean and attractive. And at
tractiveness stimulates cleanliness.
It is along these lines that the

fleet on the figures for the same
article in the year following the close

In an old bin of sale from New
York wholesale house, dated Septem-
Der 1, 1866, the following prices are
quoted on sugar: Two barrels c. Su-
gar, $77.l8; two barrels R. Sugar; $685.
rs; one barrel Granulated. $S4.93.
At today's retail prices for granulat.
ed sugar, SA cents a pound, a barrel
Of sugar costs only S20.6212, 81 less
than the Civil War price. Sugar is
no longer sold by the barrel, but by
the sack. There were $50 pounds to
