CLEAN UP AND PAINT UP

Health, safety from fire and beauty
of surroundings all demand that each
spring the winters accumulation of
waste, rubbish, filth and dirt be clean
ed up and removed from all premises.
Clean streets, alleys, yards and
houses prevent fires and disease, and
are always source of civic pride,
while dirt and filth speak i'll of citizen
ship and home pride.
NOW is the time to clean up all
waste and rubbish, wherever found,
in Easements, attics, closets, yards,
alleys, area-ways, sheds and barns.
Cleanliness is inexpensive, filth and
dirt are costly.
Spring clean-ups in past years have
brought good results.
Let women's clubs and civic bodies
aid in planning and carrying out this
cleanup movement.
Let the school children be organized
as cleanup squad.
Let fire chiefs inspect all schools
and other public buildings to make
sure that all fire and life hazards are
corrected.
Let the merchant and shop keeper
clean up his basement and back yard
Let each good housekeeper have the
most thorough housekeeping she ever
had.
Let everybody work and boost for
clean, beautiful and healthful city.
When cleanup week is gone, let ev-
cry day be a clean-up-day.
We must caution against burning
rubbish on windy days or near build
ings or leaving rubbish fires unattend-
ed Children must be watched, as
their cotton dresses catch fire easily.
Repairing that moss-covered danger
Gus shingle roof, the ragged chimney
top, closing up wall openings, apply
ing the paint brush literally, and til
ling and identifying your home
grounds will help to make city beau
tiful and safe.
Cleanup days viii be from May
9Th to May 10th.
BY Order of the Mayor.

Suggestive for Commencement Season

A practical committeeman, in pre-
senting diplomas last June to a grad
uating class spoke as follows. "Girls,
in presenting you these diplomas, if,
by their significance you are led to
allow your mother to do all the work,
bake all the bread, sweep all the floors
because you can read Latin or demon
strate a theOrem in geometry, then
has your school been most unfortu-
nate course, and in all the teachings
you have ever received at my hands, /
trust there has been no lesson that has
weaned you from the dish pan. Boys,
if from this graduation you go out in
70 the world too nice to carry wood
and swilI the hogs, if need be, then has
our school failed in its purpose and
sown the wrong seed"

To hear the message YOU have brought
You've worked and pushed your way up through
The darker days, beneath the earth,
And come out smiling on your way
To conquer more, and prove your worth.

of August last says:
1.-THE carriers (railroads) OF
the country could not so effec-
lively handle the entire refrig-

done by the intervention of pri-

could no more do business on

basis without his private cars
than he could without his
modern equipped refining or
packing plant"
Marketing, however, does not
consist merely in taking what
producers offer and selling it.
Scientific selling must begin
with the best growing of those
foods the country most needs.
To this end our Farm Bureau

Outlets must be maintained

any product, acceptable alter
