Mayor G. E. Madison, in keeping with the spirit of the above, will shortly issue a proclamation, setting aside the week of April to 13, as Clean-Up Week in Malvern. Pro- perty owners will be required to clean up their premises, and the alleys and adjouning them. They will be re- quired to have the refuse ready in piles, and the city will furnish wag- ons and carts, to have it hauled away. The mayors intention, is to inaugurate thorough clean-up cam paign of the city, and therefore let Malvern stand in the front ranks with other cities in this matter. Nothing helps town more, than to have clean streets, clean alleys, and to have de- bries removed from the vacant lots. Mayor Mattison will no doubt re- ceive the hearty cooperation of the citizens of Malvern in his efforts in this work, and if everybody does their part, Malvern will present a much better view to the public after the cleanup, than it has for some time in the past

REDS AND BLUES BOTH
 ARE ON THE RUN

The Red and Blues, candidate for officers of the Malvern Chamber of Commerce, are both on the run, today, for members to the organization. Have you joined, yet? If not, do SO, at once, and help the Blues whip the Reds, or the Red lick the Blues. Don't be stacker, be Red or Blue one. You can't be for both, so you must take your choice, and "vote 'er straight A new feature which en- tered into the campaign yesterday and today, is the poetical inclination of the campaign managers for both sides. Not satisfied with, or not be- ing able to put, their advertising strong enough in prose, they have re- sorted to poetry, and the contest wages hot, with odds in favor of neither; but both sides claiming the victory, hands down. The fire works will be on in earnest Monday night, when candidates on both plat form, will present their views to the members assembled, at the Wood man hall, and the different blanks they stand on. It was rumored to- day that both sides, will ad "bone dry, to their already attractive plat forms. Whether this will be done or not, our political editor failed to find out this morning, as both head quarters absolutely refused to make a statement. A shake of the head was all he could get.
 New members are signing up daily, and if you have not signed yet, do so in time for the Monday night meet ing, and then come, and hear for your self, what Country savers" we have on both tickets

THE END OF A HOOVER DAY

(Sung to the air of "A Perfect Day.0 I have come to the end of a meatless
 day,
 And peacefully lying in bed, My thoughts revert in a musing way To the food which today Eve been
 fed. When I think of the cheese, and the
 beans, and fish, And oysters I've had to eat, I've no regrets for the "good old
 days"
 I really didn't miss the meat! I have come to the end of wheat
 less day,
 I have eaten no cookies or pie; I have had no bread that was made
 with wheat
 It was made out of corn or rye; And I liked it so well, that when war
 is past
 And glorious victory won, I'll keep on observing "wheatless'
 days
 And I'll eat "corn pone" for fun! -Oconto (Wis.) Enterprise.

the hands of the baby new year,
scarcely few hours old. We are
glad, for we love to make new be-
ginnings and forget the mistakes
of yesterday But this year we
aren't going to say great deal
about new leaves being turned over
and fresh starts being made. We
are going to give few facts to
make you think hard, and then
perhaps your fresh beginning will
be purely voluntary.

since the first part of last April.
Have you done anything to help
your Government win?

AROUND TOWN
...BY OBSERVER.

While around town recently |
couldn't help but notice the new
court house, which is acknowledged
to be the finest of its kind in West
Tennessee. | had occasion to go
through the building and wondered
as | entered and saw the entrance
and steps covered with tobacco
juice. Continuing | saw the hall
in the same condition, with large
spittoons coated with tobacco.
What do you suppose the men
who are the cause of such condi-
ton would think if their friends
or neighbors, when they came to
their home, would expectorate on
their steps, in their hall. on their
floors and, while in their sitting
room, on the floor where most con-
venient? Would they do it them
selves? If they have any pride
whynot show it for their town and
public buildings!
Usually a place of that kind is
placarded with "$5 fine for splitting
on the floor. Doing 80 spreads
disease" How many tubercular
germs are on the floor of the court
house? We had serious epidemic
of smallpox last summer. Do you
wonder at it? Whose business is
it to put up these signs and enforce
the law-the Board of Health's,
Mayor and Aldermen'sor Sheriff
Why not the officials and occu-
pants of the rooms in the building
hire janitor and each one pay al
equal sum to have the cuspidorA
cleaned and the floors mopped and
swept daily? Keep the wood in
the basement and let it be the duty
of the janitor to supply each room
with wood as needed. Storing it
in the rooms litters up the floor,
to say nothing of the damage done
I to the walls.
In places the court yard looks
like a lumber yard and in others
like junk heap. With the broad
walks, attractive well house, ETC.,
it could be made a thing of beauty
and credit to town and county.
What about it?
