Spring Time, Cleaning Time

Every woman knows that spring
time is cleaning time. Up to
few years ago. however. women
only were concerned in the matter
of cleaning up and then only as
far as their own households were
concerned. Today, however, men
have learned the virtue of cleanli-
ness and are applying the clean up
idea to front and back yards,
streets and alleys and communities
as a whole. Clean Up and Paint
Up campaigns were held last year
in over seven thousands towns and
cities throughout the United
States, and there are very few that
will not repeat again this year. A
clean town means a more healthy,
a more prosperous and all around
better place in which to live.

Daylight SaVinS Act Adopted.

We have at last reached a point
in life where many of us will be
compelled to adopt the motto OF
Benjamin Franklin, who said:
early to bed and early to rise
Make a man healthy, wealthy,
and wise"
Congress has adopted what is
known as the daylight saving act,
which means that in order to make
use of daylight instead of SO much
artificial light we are to alter the
hands upon our clocks. Starting
from the last Sunday in March the
hands will be advanced one hour
and remain advanced until the last
Sunday in October, thus instead of
getting up at 6 o'clock this sum-
mer, We shall have to arise at 5 A.
M. and instead of retiring at III p.
NJ, as many of us do, We shall have
to seek our touches at 10 2. NJ.
This plan will doubtless be much
appreciated by employees who will
be off one hour earlier in the
evening and have more time to en-
Joy themselves. Lafourche Comet.
