TO RENEW DRIVE
ON RUBBISH
Another Squad of Us Men
Will be Started Out
Monday
PROPERTY OWNERS
ASKED TO HELP

A plan for "brightening up" the
city as a natural sequence to the
Cleanup" movement originated and
paid for by p. S. DUPONT has been
evolved by William NJ. Francis, engi-
neer in charge of the Longwood es-
tate of Mr.. dupont. and director of
the cleanup" scheme
In an interview today. Mr.. Francis
said that 600 men had been employed
thus far in the drive to clear away
rubbish from vacant lots. streets and
alleyways and to make the city more
healthful. These men have worked
on an average OF two days each, at
25 cents an hour or 50 a day. All
told more than $1,000 has been spent
by Mr.. DUPONT in his effort to Inn
prove civic conditions.
The latest squad of 106 men
which has been engaged in cleanup
work will give way on Monday to
/ fresh contingent of 125 men, who
will work IN the section north of
! Delaware avenue TO the Brandywine.
on Wednesday another squad will
undertake the job, and will op-
crate over the Brandywine.
These squads are working in CO.
operation with the Board OF Health
and according to the six health dis
tricts into which the city is divided.
| Thus far the first three districts
which cover the western portion OF
the city have been cleaned. From
the first district 139 truck loads of
rubbish have been carted away.
From the second 141 truck loads
and from the third 12s truck loads
! have been taken. making a total Of
40s truck loads.
Mr.. Francis said that IL was his
idea that such cleaning Of the city
should be followed by the individual
! propJrty owners in painting and
generally improving the appearance
of their homes or stores. This would
provide work Tor many men now out
of employment and at the same time
would benefit the neighborhoods in
which the properties were located.
Labor may now be obtained at low
cost and property owners should
reap the advantage, said Mr.. Francis.
who added that not only would they
be the gamers but they would do
much to relieve the unemployment
situation. He also suggested white
washing Of cellar walls as a part OF
the general spring cleaning.
At the Public Employment Blu
reau, In the old City Hall, Sixth and
Market streets, the plan for assist
ing the unemployed was heartily ap-
proved.
Mr.. dupont has done much to re-
lieve unemployment" said Miss
Katherine Smith. OF Department OF
Labor, Washington, who is in charge
Il feel sure that the men who have
been given the opportunity to gain
two days labor have appreciated
IT,.
In the oplnoin Of Mr. Francis
industrial conditions in the city are
improving as he has found that mer
who, three weeks ago, were eager
to obtain jobs in the cleanup squads
are now otherwise employed.
The Employment Bureau today
o. in addition to sending out calls for
J the 125 men who will be wanted for
the cleanup squad on Monday
placed three men in positions. one
of these men so pleased was giver
, a professional position. Three wom
en- also were placed. Two men ant
: nine women were referred TO posi-
BILE employment and three men ant
b. three women registered for work.

development in radio. by which mus
&c. news. lectures and other forms of
speech can be received by attaching
the usual receiving instrument to the
electric lamp and eliminating the an
tennae, as well as relieving the on
gestion of wireless broadcasting In
the air, was announced to-day by Ma
jor General Squier. its inventor and
chief signal corps oficer Of the army.
The first public demonstration of
the new wired wireless" was held In
the signal corps headquarters to-day.
The whole operation Of installing the
device for receiving consisted merely
of removing a bulb from q lamp on
General Squier's desk and inserting
this receiving plug into the socket.
The broadcasting station, 1t was ex-
planned. was connected with the light
ing circuit through a lamp receiver
at another point.
The invention is believed by signal
corps officers to offer a great utility
to owners OF electric lamps every
where. and. the general said, could
bring to every home where there Is
an electric lighting system the con-
certs which previously have been
broadcasted through the air and re-
ceived through the antennae.
Broadcasting over great distances
by use of the invention Is believed to
be possible, but that use has not been
attempted as yet. The idea was con
csivsd less than q week ago. General
squier said.

Winter maps are ending. The bears

The snakes in the zoo do not have
their regular Winter sleep. The
keepers al them to amuse the pub
lie. so the cages r kept at tropical
heat. The snakes that hibernate
only when they feel the cold miss the
long nap-and they live only half as
long as snakes should live. Tell that
to your son who neglects regular
sleep.
The Gagged bears are puzzled, for
when free they begin to hibernate
only as food disappears. Ages g
they learned to sleep all Winter to
avoid starving all Winter. In their
bear pit food appears regularly.
When the snow falls they wonder at
food and snow combined-then old
habit conquers. They enter the dark
bear den and go to sleep anyhow,
nose between their paws, body rolled
up. heart slowed down, life almost
suspended. In the forest the sno
cover their lair. Their faint breath
makes a hole in the snow-they
breathe enough and live.
