OF INTEREST IN THE
SOCIAL REALM
SO THE WORLD GOES
Laugh and the world laughs with you;
Weep and you weep alone;
For this brave old earth must borrow
it’s mirth;
It has troubles enough of its own.
Sing! and the hills will answer;
Sigh and it is lost on the air;
The echoes bound to a joyful sound,
But shrink from voicing care.
Rejoice, and men will seek you;
Grieve and they turn to go;
They want full measure of all your
pleasure,
But they do not want your woe.
Be glad and your friends are many;
Be sad and you lose them all;
There are none to decline your nectar
ed wine,
But alone you must drink life’s gall.
Feast, and your halls are crowded;
Fast, and the world goes by;
Succeed and give, and it helps you live,
But no man can help you die.
There is room in the halls of pleasure
For a long and lordly train,
But one by one we must file on
Through the narrow aisles of pain.

Governor Issues Call For
“Clean up Week”
State of Georgia, Executive
Department, Atlanta, March 5,
1915—Whereas, the Federated
, Club Women of Georgia desire to
make the week of April 5 to 12,
“Municipal Clean-up week” in
Georgia, in line with a movement
sponsored and promoted by their
national organization, and have
requested me to assist them in
designating the week; and
Whereas, the movement is
highly commendable in that it
will contribute to the public
health as well as the general ap
pearance, and concerted action
will develop responsibilty and
state pride, it is
Ordered: That without obli
gating the state government for
any expense connected therewith,
the week of April 5-12 is hereby
designated and proclaimed
“Clean-up week” for the state
of Georgia, and the hope is ex
| pressed that all citizens will co
operate with the promoters of the
movement to make it a success.
! John M. Slaton, Governor,
| By the Governor:
A. H. Ulm,
Secretary Executive Department.
Suggestions For Clean-tip
Week, April 5 to 12.
1. Take away all the ashes
and trash from your back yard
immediately. Send your rubbish
to the dumping ground.
2. Suggest to several men
with teams that they drive
through the alleys with a sign,
“Clean-up Wagon,” on their
wagons; also a bell calling atten
tion. People are only too glad to
pay such a man for haul
ing their trash away.
3. Burn all rubbish that will
burn. Clean your vacant lots
and alleyways.
4. Make your street and park
ing look as trim and well kept as
possible.
5. Refrain from throwing old
paper, banana and orange skins
into the streets.
6. Plant some grass and flow
er seeds to make your home
beautiful.
7. If your store front is dingy
paint it.
8. If you have unsightly old
buggies or traps in your back
yard, remove them.
9. If there are unnecessary,
unsightly, tumbled down sheds
in your back yard tear them
down. They detract from the
beauty of your home and the
town. Open spaces and fresh
air are better.
10. If your walk is an eyesore
those traveling over it, repair it
or build a dew one.
11. Clean out the alleys back
of the business houses at once.
