A Good Citizen Believes in a
 Clean Town

A good citizen is a man whom you like to have as YOUR neighbor.
 He does not throw tin cans. brush, papers or rubbish in alleys or on vacant lots, but places waste mate rial in boxes or baskets convenient for the city cleanup wagons.
 A good citizen knows that un- cleanliness and earelessness are the obsequious footmen of disease.
 He does not leave his garbage pail uncovered to breed flies The less he leaves rotting, the less he is swatting.
 He does not allow stagnant Wa ter to stand about his place and breed typhoid, nor invite alley-rats to be his guests.
 A good citizen knows that over sixty-five per cent of all fires start in the homes-that over eighty per cent of those burned to death yearly are women and children. The next time it may be HIS wife or HIS child.
 He does not use the roof of gar age or outhouse as junk yard nor pile his basement and attic with rubbish. These things are prolific causes of fire.
 He does not leave oily rags about his home or garage, knowing that they cause spontaneous combustion He breaks a match before throwing t away, for you cannot break a burning match.
 The good housewife does not clean with gasoline, but uses non fmflammable cleaners, of which many are on the market
 A good citizen thinks of public property and public premises, as well as his private property-for he is part gwner of the street, the alleys and the parks. He knows that he must help pay for all dam ages.
 lie does not ColHlull nor permit others to deface and scratch public buildings and sta tues. break or destroy benches-be- e.use it is HIS property and HE ast pay the bill.
 \ good citizen is constructive I=4 knows that every sweep of the pafnt brush spreads sanitation isauty and content.
 He knows that a well kept place sttracts. but neglected place de- .racts. That paint and varnish are he natural guardians of property.
 He r'alts flowers in his garden md GU tivates roses in the cheeks ef his children.
 He plants a tree-and takes care If if after it has been planted; HE makes a home out of a house ps nlantsng shrubs and vines ah' flowers about it.-From Denver Municipal Calendar.

 There is no doubt in the minds of the members of Merlin Elmer Pal mer Post No. of Wrangell, that their town will not only sustain. but will surpass it's fine record of hospitality. and that the Legion delegates and their friends will carry away with them lasting mem cries of the finest town in Alaska.
 The local post under the leader ship of Commander H. R.
