CLEAN-UP WEEK Clean-up time is here; with us again, and even prizes are being awarded to the winneis. The P^t sons showing the most improvement on their own business or homes, and even on vacant lots. By e\er> citizen in Black Mountain working and beautifying their own property, is adding beauty to our city. It is the time of year when not only nature puts on colorful clothes but the homes and business as well. As proud citizens it becomes our duty to do our part, in making our city clean, and something to be proud of. # A little work on the shrubs a little raking,—flower beds prepared for their spring and summer colors, a few rocks placed here and there, a new coat of paint on the home and garage, rubbish and tin cans piled in a place where the city rubbish truck can remove the accumulation of the winter months. This is only a few hours work at the most, and the proclamation by our Mayor J. L. Potter, for clean up week is very timely. . The Lions Club of Black Mountain is offering the prizes. The many activities of the Lions Club in var ious civic improvements can not be taken lightly. It is made up of our very best citizens who are always Tvilling to give their best, for what is best, for all. _ It is our duty to give the fullest co-operation possi ble with all concerned for this Clean-up, Paint-up period of time set aside for this purpose. # Regardless how humble the home cleaning up and beautifying it, makes it a castle to the man who owns and lives in it—and—while he lives there, the com iTunity lives around it, and would like to say, that it too, is a beauty spot. Let’s all work hard to make our city a place to be admired by everyone.

Jesus once told an arresting story of a nan who cleaned ont r s house and got rid of a devil that had been bothering him. Af ter his return to the house, how-: ever, there were several more devils that had rushed in. What a tragic picture—but how true! No sooner do we rid ourselves of a bad habit than we discover that there are many others to take its place. A town can clean up| one bad blot on the community only to find that there are many others to rush in. The past years have seen a gi- j gantic straggle in our world to rid j it of the devil of fascism. The; monster was well defeated by the armies of the Allied Nations. To- j day, however, we discover that j devils more powerful are rushing in to take its place. The devil of | Germany’s nationalism may have | been swept out of our world. But j devils of our own nationalism and arrogance rush in to fill the gap A silly Nazi doctrine of the “pure , race” is replaced by a growing menace of the ideas of the “su perior peoples.” Perhaps the j frantic zeal of world mastery has been beaten, only to be re placed by a blind revenge on the part of the victors. The gaps in personality and so-; ciety left by destroying an evil j will fill up with other evils un less replaced immediately by; some good. Evil will not be over-; come by stronger evil except in j an immediate sense. Evil is ov ercome by good. Atomic power does not win over T.N.T. except in the most short-sighted view. Hate is replaced only by love. Sin is overcome by righteousness. War is overcome by peace- Na tionalism is overcome by inter nationalism. Hunger is overcome j with food. The negative must al- j ways be replaced with the posi tive. Wouldn’t it be a fine thing if we and our nation believed this enough to try it for six months ? Patronize our advertis ers for better values.
