A Clean City Means Higher Real Estate Values, Lower
 Fire Insurance Rates, Attracts Visitors

Clean-Up is the negative, the de- structive part and Paint-Up is the pos itive, the protective, the constructive part of the work. You can't paint up until you have cleaned up, and you can't keep things actually clean and sanitary and germ-proof unless they are painted, or vanished, or enamel ed. You know that the very best household servants can't do it. Think of them trying to on such things, for example, as bathtubs and washbowls that are not enameled, floors not varn- ished or painted, woodwork and kitch- en and bathroom walls that are not painted. That's why every inch of surface in all hospitals is painted, vanished or enameled.
 And talk of forest conservation. More money is wasted in the damage and deterioration of property through lack of paint than is generally real iZed. We are inclined to look upon painting as an expense, when it should be considered as an insurance against otherwise certain loss. Prof. H. H. King, who conducted an extended ser ies of paint tests at Kansas Agricul- tural College, declares that "the loss through lack of painting exceeds the less by fire"
 Cleaning up without painting up would be but half doing the work though of course painting is not the year around job that cleaning is. But it is pecessary whenever the paint is so worn that the material is exposed to the elements, or when the building is so dirty that the premises have 8 rundown and neglected aspect, detri. mental to its value, to the standing of | its owner or occupant, and to the looks and reputation of the whole neighbor. hood.
 Saves Cincinnati ss50, ,O0O Year. Cincinnati's first Clean-Up ana Paint-Up Campaign, in 1914, reduced the annual fire loss more than s900,. GOO and brought an annual saving oi Sl60, ,000 in reduced fire insurance premiums, which in succeeding years have been stil further reduced, so that now an annual saving of $S50,0 ir fire insurance premiums, as the re suit of these campaigns is reported by Captain Jno. J. Conway, the superin tendent of the City Salvage corps who for all this period has been chair man of the Cincinnati Clean-Up ant aint-Up campaign, conducted annual ly by the chamber of commerce. All over the United States there ar, better homes because of this grea idea. From one end of the country to the other there are cleaner ant healthier cities as result of putting this idea into practice. Civic prid, has been wonderfully stimulated ana

developed into expression in other things besides the primary features of this campaign; because you cannot set in motion a great force without cre- ating surplus energy and other appli- cations of the original idea Cities are profiting in many other ways from the spirit aroused and the cooperative energy created People who have worked together for the common well fare knoW and appreciate each other better. There is finer neighborhood and community feeling and newly found sense of cooperative power. It
 is easier to do the many other desir- able things because this great idea has stimulated the right spirit and ere ated the right cooperative organiZa- tions that enlisted the whole commu- nity. Where the spirit has been prop erly developed the Clean-Up and Paint-Up Campaign is conducted ev- cry year and almost all the year round, in the continuance of some of the features of the campaign through out the year. In cities that have been cleaned up, the work now is to keep clean. Food conditions are constantly looked into. The thrift gardens and flower gardens are kept up. Vacant lots are not permitted to revert to tin can and tall weeds state. Health and police officers find it easy to keep their forces and the people keyed up to wig orous enforcement of the sanitary or dinances and regulations. Formerly neglected properties and whole neigh borhoods find themselves on the map of restored values and responsibility. Civic spirit pervades all classes and is constantly on the alert

The Census Shows We Have Grown Greatly in Population,
 Now Let Us Grow in Health and Happiness.
Flies and Mosquitos Add Nothing to Health and Happiness, Nor Do Dirty
 Streets and Refuse

cities is the Clean-Up and Paint Up campaign which is nationwide in it's scope and which this year is doing its work in thousands of cities and towns. It cleans the streets, cleans the alleys, cleans the back yards and basements, cuts the weeds and carts away the cans and refuse from vacant lots, fills up or drains stagnant ponds, stops the strewing around of garbage, clears away the refuse heaps where the deadly house fly breeds and the pools where the malaria mosquito propagates, makes thrift gardens and flower plots and window boxes, keeps grass lawns neat, plants and trims shade trees, enforces the milk and food laws, and paints up fences, trel- lises, garages, porches and houses. All these things create more sanitary and healthful conditions, reduce sickness and loss of employment, add to the joy of life because of more beautiful sur roundings, increase the value of prop erty, reduce fire losses and insurance premiums, create new pride in the city and new civic spirit which leads to further civic enterprises, and inn part to both old and young, new inter- est and activity in all municipal af- fairs.
 We did wonderful things in the war wonderful as a nation and especially wonderful in the spirit and deeds of our soldiers. Probably our nation has now more vigor and initiative and ere ative power among its people than ever before. Now let us turn this great force into making living condi- tions better throughout the nation, in making life pleasanter and freer from sickness and sorrow. If we put into this effort but half of the patriotic spirit that we devoted to making the world "fit place to live in," we shall soon have the most beautiful and healthful cities in the world.
 We ought to have them. We have the money, the intelligence, the love for good things. All we need is the cooperative spirit, the ability to work together democratically and Loyalty for the common good. With this spir. it the Cleanup and Paint-up Cam. paign can be made a wonderful sue, cess, the city can be made more beau. tiful and prosperous, the amount oi sickness and death rate can be appre ciably reduced and everyone can bt happier in the fuller enjoyment of hi. life and work.

Paint Is an nsurance c C Against Loss; Loss by Lack of Painting Exceeds
 Losses by Fire.

Are you proud of Flagstaff Do you think it is a fine place in which to live and do business? Do you feel sense of satisfaction when sight seers from other cities drive past your own home and notice your yard with it's shrubbery and flowers and lawn, that make the fitting setting for your attractive well-kept home? Well, you know that one swallow does not make summer. One single clean and at tractive home will not impress visi- tors, except to show the hideous con- trast of it's surrounding neighborhood. It is the whole neighborhood and the whole city which furnish visitors their impressions and estimates of the con ditions, of the public spirit, and of the business and property values and prospects of your neighborhood and your city. The cleaner you keep your own premises the more interested you should be in seeing that the whole city is kept clean to match your own standards. That is not only a proper civic pride, but it is your right to ex- pect cleanliness and orderliness all around you for the protection of both your health and your property.
 The attractive, thiiftily cared fol home, in a clean and pretty neighbor- hood of such homes, will bring much more spot cash and such a quicker sale than one in a dirty, rundown neighborhood, that it becomes patent that besides all the safety and com fort and pride one finds in Cleanup and Paint-up, there's real money val ue and profit in it.
 In household and neighborhood and community cleanliness there is no such constantly impelling incentive as paintliness! Here is simple lesson in psychology that explains it:
 Did you ever think of the reason foi the now common practice of painting the corners of stairway landings ir public buildings, schoolhouses, factor. ies, etc, in white or some other ligh, color? It is because practically no. body, children. workmen, nor even the tobacco chewing ward heeler, will de. file conspicuously clean painted sur, face. Therefore, these corners, form. erly the havens of filth, are easily kept clean. Any office building man ager can tell you how his janitor force can raise or lower the habits, ths class. of his tenants, the reputation oi his building, the frontage and flool space values.

A City That Grows Only in Population and Business
 Is Not Growing at All
 It is Only Swelling Up.
THE CENSUS this year show a 1 great growth in population, es-

THE CENSUS this year show a l great growth in population, es- pecially in the towns, and cities.
 We know from the bank statistics and from many other sources, that the United States has grown tremend- ously in wealth. The people have more savings deposits, more bonds and stocks, more life insurance and more of everything that shows great ma terial prosperity. Prices are all high, but most people seem to be able to pay them and have a surplus.
 Now, also we are given figures to show we have more people. Our cit ies are growing at a rapid rate, so far as population and wealth is concerned.
 Is that the only way a city should grow? Should it not grow in beauty, in the things that make life more worth living, in conveniences, for re- creation, in social activities, in those things which uplift the spirit and es- pecially should it not grow in the pro- motion of health and the reduction of the death rate?
 The spirit of the times is not alone for bigger things and more things, but it is especially for better things. That really is "the great unrest" The people want better things, better liv- ing and growing conditions. They are not satisfied merely to see their city grow large in population and business. They want it to grow also in those things which make life more pleasant and more free from sickness and from the distress caused by loss of employ ment through disease and epidemic.
 Everywhere there is this demand for these better living conditions. People are reaching out for them, blindly in most cases, because they do not know just what to do to get them. They do not realize that the can produce these conditions for them selves, if they will only work together to get them. Any city can be health ful and beautiful and desirable place to live in, if it's citizens will pull to- gether to make it so. There is no need to make commotion, to tear things to pieces, to set one portion of the community against another. What is needed is cooperation and unity of effort on the part of all in the follow ing of some particular and practical plan. Then the thing is done.
 This plan exists. It has been worked with great success for number of years in many American cities. II

Don't Neglect Painting Up

aint-Up goes hand in hand with Clean-Up. When you have dusted and swept and mopped the corners and the open spaces, put the paint brush to work. It will be easy to keep things clean then. A painted surface does not accumulate dirt like an un- painted one does. Besides, dirt is more obvious on painted surface, and less apt to be ignored. Paintliness is the best incentive to cleanliness which, you know, is next to godli7 ness"
 Make the paint brush the partner If the scrubbing brush. They make a whole team. Enlist BOTH of them for Clean-Up and Paint-Up.
