Fifteen Commando nts
For a City Beautiful

First: Inaugurate block improve
ment society, with one capable man
as captain for the city, and one vonl-
an in each block as chairman, witn
authority to look after that one block,
reporting periodically to the captain
Second-Pull down your fence It's
the city's business to haul it away
and keep off the COWS. If, however,
you can't be induced to part with said
fence, fix it up and paint it.
Third; Plant lawns, flowers and
trees. Wherever the ground shows
plant something on it
Fourth: Exercise the same supervi
sion over your sidewalk as over your
front yard. Sidewalks are an index
Of the kind of people inside
Fifth: Cut weeds while young and
tender: it will save future cutting
Sixth: When the sidewalks are
torn up and not properly repaved. cali
up the mayors office and give him
the names of the parties responsible.
Seventh; Report all unsightly OBJ
jects in your neighborhood If posi-
bic, it will be remedied.
Eighth Don't let your dog bark a;
night
Ninth; Call attention of all you
met to the city beautiful idea"
Tenth: Encourage your children to
help the good work along by picking
up the papers sticks, and other rub
bish whenever found.
Eleventh: 4 few dimes and lot
OF energy and enthusiasm will trans
form an unsightly backyard into a
perfect beauty spot
Twelfth For permanent screens
use hardy vines and shrubs also
quick growing vines
Thirteenth If you cannot have a
yard full Of roses, you may have a
window box filled with geraniums
and ferns
Fourteenth: Keep trees trimmed
up and pull up dead ones. Report
any one who ties a horse to a tree.
Fifteenth: Keep all trash away and
street drains open. 1t Will help much
in doing away with the mosquitoes.
The above suggestions are humbly
given. The local editor is wondering
just how much beauty could be added
to Ocala if the women of the city
should undertake a block improve
ment movement with the same spirit
and efficiency with which they do
ether fine things, They could add in
calculably to OcaIa's attractiveness
and wealth. = mayor of Birmingham,
Ala, few years ago inaugurated
the block Improvement in that city
and the scheme worked wonders. He
issued a little booklet Untitled "Birm-
ingham, the City Beautiful" which
contained bylaws and instructions in
order to organize and harmonic the
work OF all blocks What Rirming-
ham can DO Ocala is certainly capable
Of accomplishing also

PRESIDENT PRAISES
VALUE OF WAR ADS

part taken by advertising In developing
Americas prosecution OF the war was
noted by President Wilson IN a tele-
gram received here yesterday by VIII
liam C. darcy, president OF the Associ-
ated Advertising Clubs Of the World.
Permit me TO express very genuine
interest in the success Of your great
convention in San Francisco. I realize
how squarely and spontaneously the
advertising men OF the country have
stood behind the war. / want in par
ticular to bear witness 20 the service
which advertising has rendered in di-
recting the prosecution OF the war
through what IL has done for the sale
OF Liberty Bonds and War Savings
Stamps. and in behalf OF subscription
funds for the Red Cross and the y.
NJ C. A.. not to speak OF many other
forms Of service"
THE EVENING JOURNAL was the
first newspaper in Wilmington to adj
vocate and use advertising to boost the
Liberty Loan and Red Cross campaigns,
the advertising campaign having been
planned and worked up by this news
paper, which received the generous CO
operation OF many advertisers.

AMERICAN BAY0NETS DEFEAT
HUNS AT BELLEAU WOODS

The Germans scarcely ceased she'll
ing. They used high explosives, gas
shells and one Founders. Airplanes
dropping bombs contributed to the
Germans fire.
Two days OF this and the engineers
were Withdrawn. Another battalion OF
the same brigade came TO relieve the
worn Americans. The newcomers were
only two companies strong, having
themselves been compelled TO give up
two companies because OF gas and
shclling The tired original battalion
remained with them two days longer,
but at midnight OF June IA were order

sion coming TO relieve them
A German attack at a. m. and an
other at 4 q. m. threatened TO prevent
the relief being made. but both attacks
were beaten of and at a. m, the bat
talion-what there was left OF Twas

The character of these woods has
been described but II II is remembered
that they were fllled with rocks often

Germans with natural nests for their
machine guns, and II advantages offered
by fields OF wheat grown high and
dense for machine gun emplacements
are considered. some idea will be OBJ
tanned OF what is meant by 1--WE drove
the Germans out and took their guns.

But the worst phase OF the fighting
was the numerical weakness OF the
Americans. They were literally only a
single line Of men. There were no re-
serve lines TO which they could fall
back and reform when necessary. There
were no reserves 10 take care OF feed

they call the distasteful canned French
meat. and bread and practically Moth

available was used to bring up am
munition.
