These delegates wHi>be el?cted at the meeting of March 25th. The club voti-d meet with tbe Aberdeen club xt Thursday, that means to- ght raise more on went to a tbe pet. “Mv friend, a bicycle ^repair man, was mending a punctured tire as I entered,” he says. “While waiting the monkey fell to examining the contents of a table and tipped over a can of rubber cement. ‘T cleaned the rubber from his paws, and absent-minded started rolliug a little hall of the stuff be tween mv fingers- “It gradually became sliffer. “My friend was having trou hie with the puncture and I sug gested plugging the hole with this ball of soft rubber He laughed but tried it It worked.” That -was the beginning of Moss’ success. It gave him the idea of a self vulcanizing tire patch. Today Moss owns six large factories and is a multi-million aire * He still has the monkey — Hoke Progress. • The Clean-Up .Paint Up Cam , paign was conceived and “ lished in Mav 1912, and that time more than 7.000 COm-'- munitiee from the largest citiee to the smallest towns have heed ed the call to paint up, and clean up. All classes of people have learned to work together for their common good. ' • An all year campaign has been launched in New York City. The city has been divided into 100 zones, each being in charge of a club woman, girl scouts, bov scouts, in organized grouj^ for each block, 21 thousand st^ dents have also enlisted for th)9 campaign. U would be impo^^- ble to estimate the good, JthI beauty, and inspiration that will be derived from this oampaigp. Is it not up lo the smaller towpf to follow suit, in a smaller war and thus reap their share of benefits? “Let all things be done decent Iv and in order,” is a scrii>tura admonition from the Holy Wnt It is just as vital when applied te material things. Where there is filth, there«is most likely to be diseased Dirt and disorder are the greatest enemies to public fiealtb and safety. A single filthv home, dirty back yard, or stagnant pool, may easily become the source of an epidemic of fatal disease that will sweep the city. A trash pile in some back alley may start a destructive fire.

It is estimated that to bardsur- face the system of roads now contemplated will cost a half bil lion dollars; and the cost to com plete the State sytem of schools will cost forty millions. Think we can make the grade? About one fourth the road system has been built, and nearly half the schools.

Visitors from other places will judge your town in the same way as the indjvjilual is judged by the appearafS^of his home. A clean town or city really re fleets the habits of its inhabi tants Abraham. ‘Lincoln once said, “1 like to see a man proud of the place he lives in.” It stimulate his natural pride and becomes a mighty power. You can inspire tlie dirtiest tramp with self respect by clean ing him up and giving him a new suit of clothes Clean up and paint up your city and you will turn knock-ers into booster. ‘ To organize a clean up cam paign in your community, re quires the initiative of progres sive men and women, who want to see the entire city work and live r together as one large family. The mayors of 700U towns and cities have welcomed the Clean up and Paint up campaign as o le of the most helpful factors in their administration. The work has brought them in closer touch with the people, and increased the public respect for city gov ernment. In cities where these campaigns have been conducted for several years, the health de partment has achieved results almost beyond belief. Community pride, coutent- ment, health and thrift are available assets to any town or individual. Assets are worth money, liabilities cost money. Take a drive through your city, or wala throujj^h your at leys; are they as clean as your home or place of business? Coming down to our own home town, are we not sufficiently in terested in the health, sanitation -amid welfare of our people to put on^a Clean Up campaign for one week?
