a mighty good one and reads:
Augusta Chamber of Commerce
Bulletin regarding Clean Up Cam
paign
1924
To the School Children Of Augusta:
Today is the real beginning of the
Clean Up and Paint Up Campaign
and every boy and girl should take
an active interest in seeing that the
streets, the yards and vacant lots
are cleared of paper and other ma
terial so that they will present a
clean and neat appearance.
The boys and girls in the school
room are the future citizens of the
city, state and nation. and they
Illness. If tey learn how to Clean
Up. Paint Up and Keep 1t Up with
regard to their home and their yard,
there will be no need for worry as
to the cleanliness of the City of Au-
gusta in the future.
The Augusta Chamber of Com
merce which Is conducting and or
ganizing the campaign. urges every
boy and girl to take an active part
in it. One very small thing which
they can do to improve the looks of
the school building is to be sure that
all waste paper. orange Feelings and
other material Is placed in the waste
thrown on the school grounds. Other
things that the boys and girls can
do are to rake up the lawns. plant
flowers, pick up tin cans, and make
everything spicN and span.
Many boys and girls will perhaps
be willing to give their services to
neighbors who have no children to
help them in cleaning up their yards.
Every yard should have the weeds
removed and this one more thing
that the boys and girls can do. Any
holes in the yard where water may
stand should be filled UP. as every
pool Of water which stands for any
length Of time will breed mosquitoes
and other germ carrying, fever
carrying and disease-carrying in
sects, so it not only becomes a Clean
UP and Paint Up campaign but also
a Health Campaign. Every boy and
girls is interested, of course. in
keeping in good health and growing
to be strong and happy men and
women.
We not only want to have a sue
cessful Clean Up and Paint Up Cam
paign, but we want to Keep It UP.
and the school children are the ones
who can help most in seeing that
Augusta is not only clean during the
campaign, but every day in the year.
Very sincerely yours,
H. A. FOLSOM.
Secretary.

, suitable containers deposited on the
sidewalk so that this rubbish will be
collected early. No ashes will be
hauled of under any consideration
and every other kind OF rubbish must
be in either boxes, barrels or some
thing else. These will be emptied
into the collecting trucks or carts
and the containers returned to the
sidewalk. Citizens will see how es-
sential it is that everything be in
readiness for the collectors when
they call so that the whole Of the
city may be covered in the two days
allotted for the work.
Last year. the municipal trucks
hauled away over 100 tons of rub
bish in two days. That was work,
and hard work. Whether they will
exceed that figure this year remains
to be seen. City officials feel, how
ever, that If there Is rubbish that Is
a menace to property, then house.
holders should see to it that it Is re-
moved and no other is allowed to
collect.

RUBBISH COLLECTION DAYS

not be the fault of the municipal
officials.

with Street Commissioner Hall has
made arrangements for the speedy
collection of rubbish and refuse that
will be sufficiently late in Clean Up
week to enable everyone to prepare
for it. Two days will be devoted to
this rubbish collection by the NUM-

two days every part Of the city will
be combed for rubbish.
On Thursday, May 8. all sections OF
Augusta east Of the Kennebec river
will be visited and on Friday, the
ninth, all parts of the city west Of the

BRIGHT IDEA MAY NOT WORK
Almost Too Much TO Ask College Grad
yates 70 Look Kindly on the
Alarm Clock.

Loyalty to the old alma mater
usually goes to the bitter end among
college men, but it will be subjected
to a severe strain if a manufacturer
of alarm clocks has his way. On a
certain number of new alarm
clocks he has placed on the market
he has set small seals Of the larger
colleges and universities. His idea
evidently is to exploit the we'll
known loyalty.
But it may not work so well. To
the average college Undergraduate
the alarm clock represents only an
aspiration toward the good. 1t is
bought with good intentions, but it
rarely is allowed to run after the
first two weeks, and even in the
few instances where it is kept going
it ceases to have any authority, par
ticularly among students who have a
class at AS or s o'clock.
Some old grads may not like the
idea of connecting that useful in
strument, the alarm clock, with
those old carefree days when they
were able to ignore its summons.

cRocooILe.eAsY CAPTURE

Capturing crocodiles by hand is
a lot Of fun if you don't weaken,
according to Karl P. Schmidt, her
petologist, who recently returned to
Chicago from Honduras, where he
was collecting animal specimens for
the Field Museum of Natural His
tory.
When you catch a crocodile by
hand, you don't whistle or shout
"come ERE, you; you place your
thumb and forefnger in his eyes
and clasp his snout with your other
hand. Then you drag him to you
and use a club.
Mr.. Schmidt didn't intend to
"handpick" the one he brought back
with him, but he missed shot with
his revolver, and rather than let
"crocie" escape, he scrambled into
a mangrove swamp after him.
The reptile the Psychologist cap
tured, and several others killed,
each measure ten feet in length, and
will be set up to form a natural life
group at the museum.

as at present constituted the

League and participate in the
work of the League as a body OF

The Ballot.
II is suggested that a ballot be
taken to show to which extent
the voters of the United States
agree with this movement and
the plan. Schools, churches, asso-
Citations and clubs are taking a
ballot on the question. We con-
slider it very important that all
in favor of the plan record their
opinion by signing the ballot and
either mail same direct to the
office in New York or to Ludwig
Mosbek, who has promised to
act as secretary in this COM
munity. Mr.. Mosbak will mail
additional blank ballots to any
one that may request them. 1t
is suggested to attach a piece of
blank paper to the printed ballot
and solicit signatures amongst
your neighbors. A statement of
how many ballots cast in favor
of the plan in this community
will be mailed to our senators
and representatives at Washing
ton.
The question is up to you. Will
you say yes, and see that your

The jury Of award realizes that
there is no one approach to world
peace, and that it is necessary to
recognize not merely political
but also psychological and econ
omic factors. The only possible
pathway to international agree
ment is through mutual council
and cooperation, which the plan
selected contemplates. II is
therefore the unanimous opinion
of the jury that of the 22,165
plans submitted Number 1859 is
the best practicable plan by
which the United States may CO.
operate with other nations, to
achieve and preserve the peace
