Route two. 2t Towns and Neighborhoods That Have Neglected Clean-Up Oays The State Board of Health has its eyes on a number of towns and communities throughout the State that have not, up to the present time, held an annual clean-up week. Whether they in tend to or not is not known. B'-t it is known that if clean-up weeks are to be productive of the great est good, that the sooner they are observed from now the more good they will accomplish. Just as it is too late to lock the stable after the horse is stolen, so it becomes too late after the Hies are hatched and swarming to clean up as a means of ll v-pre- j vention. This applies of course! to the first fly crop which is, | more or loss, an easy matter to prevent if betjun in time, but as there are other crops to follow in rapid succession, about every ten days, no time can be lost in pre venting a full harvest. The greater the delay in getting at it, the harder the fight will be. It was with a feeling of pride, no doubt, that the Governor of North Carolina, in viewing the matter of clean-up week, deemed it unnecessary to issue a Clean up Week proclamation. Gov ernors of other states have taken this means byway of suggesting to the people the importance of guarding against disease by pro moting cleanly and sanitary home conditions. But there is no doubt but that North Carolina's Governor felt that the pride and the intelligence of North Caro lina's citizens needed not this in junction to make them clean up their homes, neighborhoods and towns. He took this as a matter of course. Whether or not the Governor placed too high an esti mate on the people's pride and health intelligence remains yet to be seen. Some towns and com- I munities have only a few days of I grace in which to prove them selves. Towns and neighborhoods that have no clean-up days are held in as high esteem as house keepers who have no house cleanings. They are in the same | class. New School Houses. During the last biennial period 810 new rural school houses have been built in North Carolina— -600 white and 204 colored, at a cost of SSII, 107.77. This means an average of more than one ru- j ral schoolhouse for every day in j the year and including the city j schoolhouse built the averages I run considerably over one per' day. This pace of building at least one new schoolhouse for every day in the year according to approved plans of modern school architecture prepared by most competent architects under the supervision of the State 1 >e partment of Education and dis tributed from the oliice of the State Superintendent of Public Instruction, has been maintained for the past twelve years a total of 1,:17"> new schoolhouses having been built | during this time in days. .This also means that three-fifths all the schoolhouses in this State have been built anew or rebuilt within the last twelve years.
