THOMAS W. HARDWICK.
By the Governor: Governor.
Myrtle White, Ex. Sec.
The following suggestions are made
on how to inaugurate a “clean up'”
“paint up” and “keep clean” campaign.
Appoint a committee of public spirit
ed citizens to direct the work and help
foster the spirit of civic improvement.
Divide the town into districts or
zoneswith a chairman for each; ask
i
the mayor or manager to proclaim a
definite time for this clean-up cam
paign. Have articles published in lo
&il papers tolling of the importance
of civic cleanliness and beauty. Ask
the ministers to give it publicity from
the pulpits.
Distribute dodgers asking the public
to co-operate with the committee; of
fer prizes for the best results. Use
motion picture slides showing how’ ug
liness can be changed to beauty by use
of the rake, hoe and lawn mower, and
the liberal use of the paint brush.#
Urge year-round cleanliness, and
street scrubbing instead of sweeping.
Improve conditions everywhere. Clean
and beautify public buildings and parks
Abolish dilapidated buildings and
fences that are no longer useful. Pro
hibit the use of unsightly bill boards.
Remove signs on trees by the roadside.
