SPRING CLEAN up

Clean up or burn up, remove filth or
breed disease, which shall it be?
Do not bet your home or store against
few dollars worth of waste paper or
trash. There is always the possibility
of fire in combustible rubbish, it al
ways helps to spread fire, increases the
fire loss, and makes fire fighting more
difficult and more dangerous
Gather up and remove all waste
paper oily waste and rags, discarded
CLOTHING, broken, useless furniture,
leaves, boxes and other trash They
are in your basement, in the attic, in
closets, in the back yard, in and around
your out-buildings, in fence corners,
and sidewalk gratings, in wood boxes
and other hooks, corners and hiding
places.
BE careful with rubbish fires and
watch small children so that their
dresses may not catch fire. Make sure
rubbish fires do not endanger build
ings. Leave no burning embers at
night; a wind may come up to carry
them to your buildings.
The defective, moss covered shingle
roof, openings in walls, cracked Grim
neys, loose brick, rusted Smokepipes,
defective electric wiring, should have
your attention
1t is hoped all city mayors will pro
claim some week, not later than the
first week of May, as Cleanup Week
and direct the local health officers,
iiremen and street cleaners to lead in
this work.
Womcn's clubs, commercial clubs
and other civic bodies should lend their
active aid in this cleanup, and the
ever-ready help of school children and
boy scouts should be utilized. There
must be no civic slackers.
When "Clcan-Up Week" is past, let
every day be cleanup day, and keep
your home, shop, and city clean, safe
and sanitary.
Spring Is the painting season, burn
up the rags and waste, used around
painting and vanishing jobs and ma
chinery; they are liable to ignite
spontaneously at any time.
