"The Cleanest

States was a close observer of con-
ditions in the large cities which he
visited. His parting words to the
newspaper men just before his ship
sailed for home We're: THE City of
Washington is the cleanest spot on
earth"
All patriotic Americans are proud
of our national Capital. We grow
enthusiastic over its beautiful build
inss. its monuments, homes, and the
general cleanliness which prevails all
the time in almost every section of
that city.
But today there are thousands Of
cities and towns in America which
are just as clean and sanitary as the
City of Washington. They have
been made so by the aggressive
Clean Up and Paint Up campaigns
which have become a regular an
nual feature of their civic life, as
they are in Washington.
