CLEAN UP!

There is no 'sure sign" of spring, but spring should be a
sure sign" of the arrival of that time for the community to
cleanup. There is no superstition or prophesying about this
cleanup sign.
When warm weather has come to stay (until cold weather
returns IN the autumn every owner of property and tenant
should instinctively feel it their duty to remove the evidences
of winters ravages and to aid and augment nature in her work
of decentralization.
Every spring cleanup program should include disposal of
winters accumulation of litter and decayed vegetation, repair
ing and repaIntlng OF buildings, and landscape gardening. Land
scape gardening is no longer associated with large estates alone.
Cleanliness about the person or the home costs nothing. A
community cleanup need involve no expense, except of a moder-
ate amount of labor on the part of the householders. If there
were excuses for uncleanlness they were removed long ago.
What is the compensation of a COMMUNICATIVE cleanup
campaign? 1t improves the general health of the community
by removing deposits that are breeding places of disease germs
and disease carrying insects. A clean town is a better place
in which to live than one that is unsanitary and unsightly. And
the best community advertising is the appearance of being
'cleaned-up, painted-up, and planted-up"
During the war American towns and cities learned the
marvellous possibilities of community organization. There is
no better place to use that experiment than in a community
cleanup drive.

HAND CLAsPs

Nothing so eloquentIy reveals character as the hand-clasp.
One may train his voice to express courage and a cordiality I'M

neither conceals nor deceives. A blind man, deaf and dumb
from birth, can read this message of the hand.
Is it a strong hand that functions with the irresistible de-
termination of a wise? If it is, it belongs to a herman, a go-get-
ter, or to a true friend Its warm and sturdy clasp belongs
to a frank countenance and a feeling heart.
sit a hand that gives a quick, slight pressure and at once
bberates itself? That sort belongs to the busy man and is
born of independence and individuaism.
is 1t a limp hand, Then it belongs to a limp man, to one
who is too tired to be interested in persons and things. To him
hand shaking is an unnecessary formaity in which no energy
should be wasted.
Is it a lingering hand which caresses rather than clasps and
which refuser to Gberate its prey-is it a predatory hand-until

MORE HORSEPOWER
FOR FARM RELIEF

All proposed plans have thus Tar
failed to provide the farmer with farm
relief by increasing his selling prices.
Industry. however, met a somewhat
similar situation by lowering the cost
of production. A similar solution can
be successfully applied to agriculture.
The increasing of production per
worker on the farm is being met to a
certain extent by using larger units OF
power, whether horse or mechanical.
Where n man vas using a single
horse or team he is now using from
3 to 8 horses, thus increasing the
ground covered from two to five times.
By the use of larger power units hired
labor can be reduced or eliminated.

costs according to the following:

lem Facing U. S., He Tells
Arkansas Group.
By the Associated Press.

PINE BLUFF, Ark. October 90
Secretary of War Davis said today
that flood control is the biggest
problem facing the Nation, and it is
an essential business problem to pre-
vent recurrence of a disaster similar
to last Springs inundation."
Speaking at a breakfast given him
by citizens here, the Secretary con
tinued:
Everything possible within the
ability of men should be utilized to
insure that no similar flood disaster
shall occur again." and urged that
the flooded States support one com.
plete and comprehensive plan and
get behind 1t so Congress will be
convinced 1t is the desired and salts
2ctory solution of the flood problem. "
1.-THE flood problem is a non-political,
non-partisan and non-personal mat
ter" he added, land should be solved
on that basis
He assured the citizens of Arkansas
that Congress was sympathetic to the
flood problem.
The levees of the Arkansas River,
the largest tributary of the Mississippi
River in the flood region. on which 81
p1SdhS occurred east Oh Little t(OCk
during last Springs inundation, are
now repaired sufficiently to Withstand
any Fall rises of water.
The situation in the river area
was reported today to Secretary
Davis by Army engineers when the
cabinet official commenced his first
days survey of flood control work in
The region from Big Bend, Ark, along
the Arkansas River to Little Rock
The breaks from the levees on this
river were said to have accounted for
much of the flooding of the State,
which had 1.S3S.400 res inundated.
Arkansas was the heaviest sufferer in
area of any of the flooded States.

In some cases it is only necessary
to touch up or freshen the previous

so that the wood is bare, these places
should be refinished, for If left ex-
