HOW HAMBURG
IS KEPT GLEAN
Children In German City Show
Deep Interest.
OHIO MAYOR IMPRESSED.
Most off City's Refute Carted Away
While Town Is Asleep—Specially
Trained Men Look After Asphalt.
Regular Force of Nearly a Thousand
Cleaners.
With almost every city and town in
tile United Stutes preparing for Its
spring cleaning, attention lias been at
tracted to the methods of cleaning
house adopted by the Important cities
of Europe.
ID no European town perhaps are
tbe methods more Interesting than In
the thriving German city of Hamburg,
where carefully trained children help,
to keep the city beautiful. Writing
from that place. United States Consul
Robert P. Skinner says that the mayor
of one of the large cities of Ohio who
visited Hamburg was much impressed
with the Important part performed by
tbe children In keeping tbe city clean.
He departed from tbe city, Mr. Skin
ner says, convinced tbat tbe cleaning
of "streets and sidewalks la Germany
Is a much lighter tusk than in cities
of tbe same size In tbe United States
because of the orderly habits of the
people themselves.
"Suction street sweeping devices,"
continues Mr. Skinner, "are practical
ly unknown in Germany. Hamburg
Itself owus horse drawn sweepers only,
although for about nine months two
electric motor sweepers have been In
use. These, however, do not yet be
long to the city and are being employ
ed experimentally. They have not giv
en satisfaction anil have been.under
repair more than three months. Tbeste
motor driven sweepers fall to work
well In this city because tbe pave
ments, as a rule, are not very Smooth,
and the mechanism of tbe sweepers Is
deranged by''the shaking It receives.
Recently the front wjieels of these
sweepers have been provided with rub
ber tires, and they have worked more
satisfactorily.
. . Cleans 1,290 Btr*ets.
"The Hamburg street cleaning de
partment cleans and when necessary
sprinkles ail city streets, makes re
pairs, maintains relief stations, re
moves dust, garbage and waste mat
ter generally from streets, bouses,
wharves, ships and markets and op
erates also a garbage burning plant.
At present the department cleans 1,200
streets, with their adjacent sidewalks,
having a length of 291.4 miles. The
roadways cleaned cover fully 5.C50.070
square yards and tbe sidewalks about
4,177,990 square yards.. The work Is
carried on under the supervision of
twelve superintending establishments:'
Thirty main thoroughfares are cleaned
six times weekly at nigbt by means of
rotary brooms and fill other streets,
with few exceptions, twice weekly. In
the center of the city the streets are
also cleaned six times weekly during
the day and in other parts of the city
four times weekly during tbe day. \
"Asphalt street surfaces require
more attention than others, as they be
come slippery and are looked after by
specially trained men. They are swept
and drenched with water and In Icy
weather are sprinkled with pebbles. Of
late complaints bare been made by the
ownecs of motorcars that these peb
bles damage tbe tires of their vehicle*,
so tbat now this material Is strewn
only when strictly uecessary. The peb
bles used are mud free and from one
fifth to two-fifths Inch In diameter. In
1910 8(55.85 cubic yards of these peb
bles were utilized The Hamburg street
cleaning department owns 80 clean
ing machines, 54 snowplows, 101 wa
ter wagons, 100 garbage carts for'
waste from private bouses, CO garbage
carts for waste from ships, quays,
etc., 850 snow wheelbarrows and 321
garbage wheelbarrows.
"Nlgbt work begins at midnight and
ends when tbe streets are In order.
Twelve squads work under the direc
tion of twelve different posts. These
post* are In charge of an inspector for
day work and a sublnspector for nigbt
work. Tbe Jurisdiction of each post Is
divided Into ten subdivisions, so tbat In
the event of emergency work can be
taken up simultaneously at a moment's
notice at 120 different points. First
the broom- machines, of which there
are twenty-air, sweep tbe roadways,
while tbe aidewalka are cleaned at tbe
same time by special men. Another
squad follow* tbe sweeper* to heap op
the dirt awept to tbe roadside, and
finally cart* and garbage wagonayfol
low. The nlgbt work never lasts mora 1
tbsn eight boor*. Householders are |
required to born up all garbage possl- j
ble and to store tbe rest In sheet Iron
cana with covers, wblcb are deposited
at the edge of the sidewalk twice a
week, not before 9p. m. Tbe cana are
emptied by tbe garbage gatherers and
must be taken In from tbe aldewalk by
tbe bouaebolders before 8 a. m.
Roadways Are Scoured.
"Day work begins at • a. m. and con
tinues until 0 p. m., except with tbe
men wbo work on tbe asphalt street*,
who remain on doty until 7 p. m. A
two boor Intermission ia allowed at
noon. Recently ten email Iron boxes
and ten wire netting paper boxes bar*
been placed on trial In different parts
of tbe city to facilitate tbe work of
the street cleaning department If
they answer tbe purpoee satisfactorily
a large number will be provided here
after.
"On some streets It Is also tbe prac
tice. where there Is a sufficient grade
to enable tbe water to carry off tbe
waste matter through tbe gutter*, aim
ply to scoor tbe roadway with a strong
stream of water.
"At tbe garbage burning plant of tbe
city in 1910 tbe following qoaotitlee of
material were burned: House garbage,
73,1*1 ton*; wharf garbage. 4.218 tons;
ship garbage, 3,300 ton*; market waste,

substantial commercial value. »
"The regular Hamburg street clean
Ing force consists of 800 to 000 men.
but It is often necessary to Increase
the force to as many as 8.500 ineu with
the utmost celerity. A situation of this
kind Is met In the following manner:
Not later than the month of October
tbe street cleaning department dls
tributes to all laborers applying for
them at the proper registry office cards
stating where tbe applicants are to
report for work in the event of a heavy
snowfall. When the need presents
itself men holding 'cards of this kind
obtain employment first. They are paid
as much as (2.50 per day. tbe stand-'
ard rate being 2.4 cents per barrow
load of snow removed. However, those
who fill the barrows arc paid at the
rate of 8 cents per hour. Barrows
are used If snow has to be transported
not more than 820 feet. In other coses
carts of 2.61 cubic yards capacity are
employed."

Luke xvll, 11—Commentary Prepared
by Rev. D. M. Stearne.
Before we consider tba grateful
Samaritan it will ba-helpful to look at
tba Wbltauotlde leaaon on the reveal
lug spirit la 1 Cor. 11, 1-10. Whether
It be Ibe Old Teatameut or tbe New.
the great trutb standa tbat "tba
things of God knowetb no man, bat
tbe Spirit of God," bat wbat a comfort
It Is tbat tbe believer baa received tba
Spirit of God tbat ba may know tbe
thinga tbat are freely given of God.
To tbe natural man wbo baa not been
born again tbeae tblnga of God an all
foollsbnesa, for only tba spiritual man
can dlacern tba tblnga of tbe Spirit
(1 Cor. 11, 11-141. The whole Bible baa
been written by tba Spirit of God and
la forever aettled In heaven (II Tim.
111, 10; P*. cxl(. 80). ao tbat It may
truly be anld to b« tbe Splrit'a Bible
copyrighted In heaven. He therein
tella ua of the living and true God, III*
love for tbe lost, Ula great salvation.
His coming kingdom and glory. He
alto tella us of the devil aa tba great
enemy of God and man, tba father of
Ilea, tbe murderer, tba god of tbla
world, wbo will to tba laat make war
wltb tba Lord and tba saints, bat wbo
will finally be sent to tba hike of Bra
forever. , S ;i
As to tbe Inability of the wisdom
of tbls world lo grasp thing* spiritual,
consider tbe revelations of Uod given
to tbe kings of Egypt mid Babylon,
the utter helpleasness of sll tbe wise
men of those land* to grapple wltb
them, and the euiie wltb wblcb Joeepb
and Daniel, men of God filled wltb tbe
Spirit of Ood. solved every difficulty.
Tbe Spirit la ever ready to convince of
aln and lead the sinner to Jesus ChrUt
ttie Saviour. Then by tils word He
gives uasursuce of salvation, then
wakes the body of the believer Ilia
temple, revealing Cbrlat to blm uud
through him uud working In blm sll
the good pleasure of the I.urd unless
hindered by pride; unbelief or aelf la |
aome form of working, .
No one wu* ever so Oiled wltb and
controlled by the Holy Spirit aa tbe
Lord Jesus Cbrlxt and. In Him tbe
Spirit wrought perfectly and unhinder
ed (Acts x, 88i. It wss so In some
meaiure wltb prophets snd apostles
(11 Tet I. 21; Acts I, 8; U. 4; Iv, 81;
v, 82; vl, 8; vll, °SS; sill, 21. snd there
Is nothing we should so earnestly snd
constantly de»lre ss to be filled wltb
and controlled by tbe Holy Spirit, re
membering thst nothing csn svsr be
accomplished for Uod by tbe mlgbt or
power or wledom of man. but only by
the Spirit of Uod tZecb. Iv, o|.
Turning to Ibe regular lesson, we ses

wblther His face wss steadfastly set.
for the time wus drawing nesr for
Him to bo received up. or, in otber
words, to lie alaln and be raised tbe
third day (I>uke I*. ,22. 611. Although
Ho and Ills messengers were sent
primarily lo the lost sheep of tbe
bouse of Israel and uot to gentiles or
8s marl tan* (Matt s. 5. 0; iv, 24), for
tbe kingdom was for Israel, snd Ue
wss Israel's M pasta li. yet He wss ever

drawing near when He would bo re

the kingdom would lie postppned snd
the gos|K?l given to sll tbe world to
gstber from thence In this age of "tbe
mystery" his body, tbe rhurcb, to
shsre with Him His kingdom snd
glory. As tbess ten lepers stood afar
off snd cried, "Jesus, Msster. bsvs
mercy on us," His besrt of coropss
slon went out to them, snd He sent
them to Ilia priests, which Implied tbst
tbelr request was granted snd tbe
work was done (take v, 1-4: Matt vlll.
4). They evidently so understood It
snd stsried on their wsy. snd ss they

Leproay waa one of tbs emblems of
Israel's nstlonsi condition before God.

would tescb Moves snd Pharaoh tbst.
though Israel wss In the sight of
