IN a tenement district lived a family eurrounded by filth h end dirt. The whole atmosphere of the little room which ■ they called "home" wee one of hopeless depression end - squalor. To prove the power of suggestion, a good woman placed On' the table a miniature atatue of the Venue of Milo. a Against this grimy back-ground of dirt and wretchedness, o the Venue shone out in all her whiteness and purity, h elevating and brightening her strange surroundings. The a good woman called a week later and found that the place a

had been cleaned up, the dirt had been washed away and pathetic but sincere attempt at decoration had been made I — the subtle influence was effective. t If the homes in a neighborhood become weather-beaten and shabby, values in the whole neighborhood deteri- _ orate. But if aome house-owner paints and brightens up his home, it radiates ha attractiveness in every direction H and aoon the whole neighborhood is made bright and attractive. a

Real Campaign Is Taking Place of » Old Time "Clean Dp", BATH" FOR TOWNS ra TABOOED. ! J i cl Thousand Communities WilL 0 This Year Join "Clean Up and | " Paint Up" Movement. | n N MORE than 5,000 cities and towna, will this year participate in ; p "opening weeks" in the National Clean ' d' \Up and Paint Dp" campaign, accord: ■ lng to Allen W. Clark, chairman of tha . cl National "Clean Up and Paint Up'\A Campaign Bureau, St. Louis. Many of R these committees, Clark declares, are 8' thus breaking away from the old- li established "clean up" or "annual '' idea and are striving to make A their improvement programs continu- ' performances. ™ Files in the bureau's offices, which Indicate that the organization has in I reality become a national clearing house for the dissemination of com- s munlty betterment ideas, show that tl last year more than 2,000 cities and £ towns made an effort to "dean up and o paint up." "This year," commented c Chairman Clark, "It looto as tkoutfi li we would co-operate with more than, e 5.000 communities, in each of which t some lltje civic leader is trying te improve Irving conditions. Though a t majority of these campaigns will start "i with an 'opening week.' a definite' t program of activity, we know that the s bureau's success has been chiefly due t t to the fact that we try to get away j \ the old-fashioned 'annual clean I ■ up' Idea that has become odious to | t civic leaders and an annual Joke a in many cities.--. The plans of the c bureau call for continuous campaigns 1 that bring permanent results and help I form worth while civic habits." The Work to Be Done. ' The work of the bureau this year Is j more comprehensive than ever before, j Everything that will beautify, pre- , serve, improve sanitation, reduce fire t risks, and better health conditions has I , been carefully provided for. Among ' , the things which local "Clean Up and t Paint Up" campaigners are doing this , year are: Cleaning the streets and , alleys, front yards, back yards, cellars, j stables, atticks: the removal of ashes j and rubbish; cleaning up vacant lots , of rubbish and weeds; eliminating j breeding places of flies and mosqui- j toes; planting and care of trees, , and flowers; and the liberal use of paint on everything that i needs It i It is this constructive, permanent ■ nature of the improvements effected i that has won the endorsement of I national leaders in every branch of ' civic uplift work. Among those serving this year on the National Bureau's 1

advisory committee are: Mrs. Clarence Baiter, KlrksrlUe, Mo., chairman of the Women's Com- ( mittee of the National Bureau, is also vice chairman of the civics department of the General Federation of Women's Clubs, and chairman of the civic and health department of the Missouri Federation of Women's Clubs. Dr. 8. J. Crumblne, . Topeka, Kan., president of the Assoof State and Province Health of North America. H. 8. Buttenheim. New York, editor of "The , American City." Clinton R. Wood- ' ruff, Philadelphia, secretary National Municipal League and editor of the "National Municipal Review." Mrs. Philip North Moore. St. Louis, ex-presl- . dent National Federation of Women's Clubs. William Woodhead, San Fran- j president of the Associated Advertising Clubs of the World. P. S. Ridsdale, Washington, D. C.. executive secretary' American Forestry AssociaRichard B. Watrous, Washing1). C., secretary American Civic Association. Mrs. Geo. Zimmerman, Fremont, O., chairman of the civics department. General Federation of Women's Clubs. Paint and Self-Respect The one most important factor In spreading the gospel of cleanliness, thrift and civic pride, which the Bureau is trying to do. Is the werk of newspaper editors throughout the ceuntry, asserts Chairman Clark. For here Is what Paul Brown, .editor of The St. Louis Republic, has say of the movement: "Thousands of American cities and have taken up she National i 'Clean Up and Paint Up' campaign I that originated in St. Lottie three seasons ago. It has been indorsed by thousands of civic, commercial and | j wonwn's organizations all over the i I nation. The cities that have made ! themselves a part of the movement i are cleaner and better cities because of it. The Republic aided In launch- j ing the initial campaign and is glad J know that the Federation of | Women's Clubs is planning a general | St. Louis campaign for this spring. ; This will aid In making 'St. Louis the j City.' for paint is the great j preservative and a powerful aid In i sanitation. Add to beauty and economy the fact that paint has a sanitary j value, and tbe arguments apply with j added force to the big cities. Nat- i urally the paint dealer profits by such j campaigns. None but the pessimist ' will object to this. He gives value J received and more. The house that j painted is the better for It. A neighborhood that has cleaned up and painted up is a better one in which live. Paint makes for self-respect and Justifiable pride." In the office of the National "Clean Up and Paint Up" Campaign Bureau { a room-size wall map, with [ every state dotted by red stars denoting cities conducting campaigns I last year. And so it is true that civic j in thousands of towns are j working to "get L-elr town on the j nap" this year.
