CITIZENS ASKED
TO COOPERATE IN
CLEANUP WEEKS
First Two Weeks of Deem
Der Set Aside for Mu-
nicipal Cleaning.

By request of the division of civics
Of the Georgia Federation Of wOm-
ans Clubs, Governor Hardwick has
designated and set aside the frat two
weeks in December, as municipal
cleanup weeks, and al the people of
the state are requested to join with
the federation in this purpose.
The civics and citizenship section
of the Marietta Woman's Club has
requested the local papers to call at
tentiOn to cleanup weeks, and to
print parts of an editorial in THE
Manufacturers Record" Of recent
date, stressing the advantages of this
plan.
Cleanliness" it has been said, ''is
next to Goodness" A dirty indiyi-
dual is neither clean spiritually non
mentally. Dirt makes for ruin ply
sicaliy, mentally, morally. This is as
true Of towns as of an individual.
The dirty town, the town full OF
rubbish, of untidy houses, unkeps
streets, insanitary conditions, is nom
progressive materially, morally and
Internationally.
IF any town or city is ambitious
for advancement, or if even few Of
its men and women are ready to de.
vote their time and energy to the bet.
torment of the community, the surest
way is to clean up-make back yards
clean, make streets clean and keep
them clean, encourage the people,
white and black alike, to beautify
their homes and yards, stimulate q
love for and pride in their homes
and in their towns.
''N0 community which, does not
clean up and paint up, which does
not do its best to have clean streets
and clean yards, has any right to
look up and face the world. It is
the duty Of all men and women To
make their homes and their home
towns just as clean and attractive
and beautiful as possible. He who
falls short in this respect falls short
Of his duty to God and man, it mat
ters not what else he may do"

A number of novel stunts had beer
arranged for both the men and the
ladies, among them the ladies being
called upon to tell what they knew
about Rotarians whose name they hac
drawn. There was great deal Of
suspicion that all the ladies did not
tell ALL they knew about the mer

the men assumed more complacent
