The bureau commended Mayor

A year round campaign for cleaner
streets was proposed by the research
bureau. particularly in 'the schools.

generations. The city would receive an

the annual cleanup week adds to the
ample return for its exertions in this
direction
One handicap in the task Of keeping
Philadelphia streets tidy. the bureau
says. results from the absence Of team
alleys such ns Washington has. For
that reason waste materials must be
placed out on the front sidewalks for
collection. The bureau adds that in the
future Philadelphia homes should be
planned to facilitate the removal OF
household waste.

with Harry Kulp. the traffic policeman

kulp has been stationed on that very
corner since last November, and all
those who pass, motorists and other
wise, have vet to see him without q
smile and friendly salute. He probably
has more friends than any other man In
Germantown.
But there is one very special friend
for whom he watches every day. A
French boy who was left an orphan as
result Of the war was adopted by a
doctor and his wife, and despite the
fact that he is only five years old, his
foster parents let him 60 to school
alone because they know that Harry

father bought for him.
Without any idea Of the youngster' s
name. Kulp watches for him and is
worried when he does not come. Some.

doll or lose the pet marble. one would

His is a busy corner in the school
season. as there are five of them in his
ncighborhood, and that means n lot of
watchfulness. because. as he says,
Kids are pesky sometimes and dart in
