NO tOWB Pt« r duffprml in thd o# stranger* or got a bad reputation from having eban streets, bordered With shade trees well trimmed and cured far, with yard* and houses bearing Use evidence of being well leapt and newly painted. Such a city is like the rafrashiag ocean breeaa to the traveler who ha* gone from one dirty city to another until ha has al most lost his anticipation of finding cleanliness and beauty in a munici pality. The impression that clean rtrecta make upon such a visitor will make kim talk about it wherever he travels. Streets are not all that should be kept clean. Tits visitor does not get much opportunity to see the alleys, but that lo so reason why they should be permitted to bo dirty and unsani tary. The public health is %n even higher consideration than a reputa tion for cleauliaom and beauty. No matter what the city government may do toward keeping the city clean, experience shows that it doss not succeed. It cannot succeed alone. Gradually refute accumulates almost everywhere Thor* Is only one way to mako a_ complete cleanup and that Is for the citizen* to unite and! do the Job themselves, with official aid. of course. Than there is only one way to koep the city clean— and that l* through the citizens them selves. Hem la ekm therClean-Up and Paint-Up Campaign comes in. It sets the people to work all over the city, each around-his own homo and in his own neighborhood. It gets re sults that can bo had in no other way. After such a campaign is through a city is actually clean, far different from it* former condition, no matter how clean the people imagined it to bo before the campaign, for clean streets and alleys actually can ho se cured when all tho people got on the job to**t*or ana at uk umc time. | Every organixatioa, every club, every! association, every municipal depart-! aot, should bo nailed In one gnat I and practical effort to ervata such a state of claaatiaam and then they | should determine to preserve that! coodition, keeping it op. The city, that keeps everlastingly clean also keep* everlastingly growing.

I Overland ‘Tour” Sets Great Endurance Marl Stock Car Running 24 Honrs a Day for 7 Days Estab lishes Record at Indianapolis • Driven continuously for seven days and seven nights, over ordinary suburban road ways, an Overland 4 stock car has establish ed at Indianapolis, Ind., a new unofficial world’s mileage record for a light car under I 68 hours of incessant driving. flie Overland 4 in the seven days and ! j nights of this remarkable endurance run I piled up record of 5,452.1 5 miles. The car j finished the grind on the same tires with v.'hich it started. To make this new record, the drivers of Overland 4 maintained an average speed of 32 I -2 miles an hour, 24 I j hours a day. Gasoline mileage was 20.24 II miles a gallon. The consistency of Overland 4 perform ance is shown in this tabulation of each day’s run. The first day and night, the speedom eter registered 749 miles. On the second day, the mark was 778 miles; on the third. 747 miles; on the fourth, 793; fifth, 809; sixth, 823, and on the last lap of the new un official world’s record, 753 miles. The test, the first of its kind to be tried 1 and actually accomplished by a light car. started at 9 a. m. on February 25th and ended at 9 a. m. on March 3rd. The run was conducted by the Gibson Company of In dianapolis, distributors for Overland cars. The mileage and gasoline records are certi fied by the following observers: Howard F. (Howdy) Wilcox, winner of j I the 1919 Indianapolis Speedway 500 mile racing classic; Munroe E. Boblet. secretary of the Hoosier Motor Club of Indianapolis; and R. H. Scrogin, editor of the Hoos\c*i Motorist. Although the new Overland 4 * /it! Triplex springs had been tested 250.01'.'; miles under all possible weather ard »-o*d conditions before it was placed on the rr./ ket by The Willys-Overland Company, tr.i. officials of the company feel that the r\ dianapolis endurance run is one of the r.t : i convincing demonstrations yel rnude of the reliable, economical performance of the c^. and the road-comfort qualities of d-e new famous Triplex spring suspension. Officials of the company witnessed the start and the finish of the seven-continuous* day run. Careful examination of the c.y. and its power plant after the run convinced the Gibson company that the car was re itiy to repeat the endurance test of the 1 66 hours of furious driving and largely because the car had been protected by the new Triplex springs. The run is considered the highest possible verification of the ability of this new spring suspension ,to protect the car from road wear and provide big car riding comfort in a motor car of short wWi-Snco.
