FRIDAY AFTERNOON, MAY 2, 1919
CLEAN UP AND KILL FLIES.

Now is the accepted time for spring
cleaning. Dusty dwellings and damp,
dirty cellars are storehouses of dis
ease. Dirty streets and alleys are
the distributors Of disease. A. spring
advances and the power Of the sun
increases day by day germs spring to
life, get into the dust and are dis
tribnted by the winds. This is good
time to begin warfare upon dirt and
get the advantage of disease.
The winds are not the only distribu
tors of poisonous and deadly germs.
The active house fly fills his feet with
germ laden filth and then flies into
the dining room. III there j. an open
ing and wipes his dirty feet on the
food. Therefore, the house fly should
be excluded from the house, or, bet
ter still, he ought to be killed.
Old people can remember a time
when children we're taught that 1t was
cruel to kill fly. We believe that 1t
was Tristram Shandy's Uncle Toby
who was trying to get nap one
summer afternoon and was grievously
turmented by fly. He finally cap
tured the annoying insect and instead
of killing it raised the window and
put it forth, !, saying. Go little fly.
There is room enough in the world
for you and me-"
No one would think of doing such
humane act i'm these practical,
germ killing days. The fly has been
arraigned as a public enemy, tried,
convicted and sentenced to death.
Therefore, the war upon flies must
continue all this summer And the
greater the execution during April
and May the less work will there be
later on. There is no race suicide
among flies. A young lady fly be-
comes a grandmother in an incredibly
short time, and an early period should
be put to her career.

Robert H. Moulton tells US about this
in The Outlook:
"Stockmen in the Western states are
much encouraged in their efforts to in
crease livestock production by the per
sistent and successful warfare being waged
against the predatory animals that prey
on sheep and cattle by skilled hunters
in the employ of Uncle Sam. In the Fed

country these hunters are protecting the
sources of supplies of meat, leather and
wool now in the Western grazing dis
tricts

10000 predatory animals, and this has

A nd good fresh air.

Apparently bored by the poetic aff1u-
ence Of spring, The Boston Globe asks:
What would happen to the spring poets
If they all got poetic justice?" thereby
aligning itself with writer who recent
ly and frankly captioned his review of
current poetry with the legend: Notes
of a Poetry Hater.'
"Verdant SPRING has a Canadian
champion in Hilda Boyd Collins, who
pens in The Toronto Globe the follow
ing:
Breathe on me, Spirit Of the Spring,
And let me 1iue again
In brooklets' lifting, ripping laughter;
In roaring rivers turgid after
Shor0ers Of April ram,
IN rclld hepaticos o-bloumg,

about it in The Newark News:

They wonder if this may not be con-

The matter of the Filipinos prepared

desirable ends set forth in the joint reso-
luton of the Legislature sending the
