“SLEAN-UP WEEK”
To the Householder* of Augusta:
Attention hit* been called In this column for several day* to the
various problems of municipal sanitation In which the householders of
Augusta can help In our work. In addition to the problem* which are
purely sanitary problems, a great deal can be done to beautify and to
Improve the premise* throughout the city by removing material which
Is not In any sense a menace to health, but Is simply an affront to the
aesthetic sense. First In this classification comes the problem of waste
puper. Look out of your front door today and see how many pieces
of waste paper meet your view, look out of your back door on the same
quest, and then pick them up. If you haven't a receptacle for waste
paper on your premises, what do you do with your waste paper? Do
you burn It, or do you throw It In your back yard for the winds to
scatter al' over the place and all over the neighborhood? If this has
been your careless habit In the past, isn’t “clean-up" week a good time
to make a resolution that from now on you, your children and your
servants will do more in the present than you did in the past to handle
this particular form of untidiness.
When have you had your woodhouse, your back yard fence or your
chicken chop whitewashed? Was It last year or three years ago? When
ever it may have been, wouldn't all these things look better If a little
whitewash or a little paint was applied within the next ten days?
How about the liming of damp places in your yard? Lime Is not
0 disinfectant, as ordinarily termed, but if used liberally Is a great help
drying out damp places. You wc re going to whitewash your place this
spring, why not do It in the next ten days? Think this over, and while
it Is still fresh in your minds, help us out by telephoning for a barrel
of lime and whitewash brush, and making the yard man get busy.
