NUTs-THAT's ADJUST NUTS

Just as sure as man posts sign
of "fresh paint, then some noted
boob thinks its just what it amt. If
you'd post sign saying, "this paint
is dry" your words would be doubted
by some simple guy. The smart men
who lecture on wisdom and knowl-
edge, are, maybe, the ones who ought
be Gagged in nut college,. They lee
ture that brains should be filed their
extent, and then they push on some
door that says "pull", till its bent.
If a jug is marked "tonic" some
think its redeye, but if its marked
"Hayner" they pass it right by. II
some man is drowning and yells out
for help, they think its n joke and
say "darn the poor whelp". Some
gink who has money to burn is
saint, and the fellow who hasn't-no
question, he amt. If some noted
shoe man says "this shoe is the best"
then they know it is not, so they buy
all the rest. oh, this world is crowd
ed with cuckoos and NUTS, each
says its the other, so everyone's nuts.

This week of May 1-6 has been
decided upon by Mayor William G.
Wilson as annual Cleanup Week"
plans already being taken up where
by the city may receive its spring
house cleaning with the assistance
of special service by the street de-
partment' and garbage collectors.
"Clean-Up Week" has been OBJ
served in Perth Amboy for many
years it being a period set aside each
spring during which time all prop
erty owners and residents are urged
TO clear their homes, yards and va
cant lots Of all rubbish and make
other improvements as painting
planting gardens and beautifying
This years ''CIean-Up Week" is
one month later than is customary.
Mayor Wilson deciding that the first
week in May is more appropriate
than the first week in April owing
to the large number who move on
May 1 and therefore are in a posi-
ton to conduct cleanup compaign.
In former years the Boy Scouts or
the city have lent a helping hand by
ATTACKING empty lots in which
there have accumulated papers, cans
and rubbish of all sorts. Many OF
these lots are to be found in the
heart of the city and few hours
work by a squad of boys armed with
wheel-barrows, a rake and will to
make the city more presentable to
the outsider, will do wonders.
The Board of Health is co-operat-
ing with the mayor and street de-
partment this year in an effort to re-
move all unsanitary and unhealthy
conditions and the school children
will be asked, through Superipten-
dent S. f. Shull to spread the word
at home and help in giving the CITY
n new spring dress.
