Called Meeting of Woman’s Club
There will be « called meeting of
the Augusta Woman's Club tomor
row (Friday) afternoon at 4 o'clock,
by order of the president. Marie C.
Smith, < haii man publicity committee.
The above notice is one of the most
important that has ever appeared in
these columns and it is earnestly re
quested and hoped that every mem
ber of the Augusta Woman's Club
will be present at this meeting to
morrow afternoon The purpose of
the meeting is to get together and
formulate plans ior tie systematic
t leaning of the city, not only the
s.reets but the yards, wherever there
is a house, no matter how small, no
matter how large, it is to be put in
'•apple 1 ie ' order the first ten days
of April. It is to obliterate mud
holes, to have all stagnant water
drained off; it is to do away with old
tin cans that have been thrown un
der the house or in the chimney cor
ner, and which get half filled with
WHAT A LITTLE
DODGER DID.
It was only a dirty little dodger. one of
hundreds that have been distributed
by the Augusta Woman's Club for the
puritose of advertising the Spring
i leaning of the city, but it did a big
1 hing that will in all probability re
dound to a bigger.
Mr. George H. Gaston, of New York,
second vice president of the Metropoli
tan Life Insurance Company, has been
spending a fortnight at Le Bon Air.
Whilta taking his constitutional yes
terday ”i turning he pascd a piece of
j uper on which was printed, "Spring
( leaning for Augusta." The words
i aught his eye b.ut he passed on with
i ut reatiinj further, and yet. the head
line was fixed in his mind with so
much tenacity that he retraced his
steps after gone about one hundred
yards, picked up the dirty little dodger,
and read it carefully. By it he saw
that the Board of Health, the Mer
chants and Manufacturers' Associa
tion and the Augusta Woman’s Club
cooperatin' would get together and
ilean up both premises and streets.
The more Mr. Gaston thought of the
matter the more convinced was he
that he and his men of the Metropoli
tan office could l>e helpful in this,
reasoning very logically that they were
first of all good citizens and after that
good Insurance n en. With this thought
in view lie communicated with Dr.
Murphey of the Board of Health,
called a meeting of his office force and
the result was that yesterday after
noon there was a most enthusiastic
; athering in the company office when
Dr. Murphey gave them a talk, giving
pertinent sugestions as to the best way
in which the fly and mosquito could
be eliminated and many other helpful
suggestions as to how they could in
dividually aid the Board of Health
and the Woman's Club in the splen
did work they are going to accomplish.
The matter of cleaning up was taken
up in all its many phases and each
agent of company was so enthus
ed that he promised to aid in every
way possible those working for the
cleanliness of the city. This will mean
much as these agents come in personal
touch with hundreds of people in all
walks t,f life, and they can aid mater
ially in the work the Board of Health,

Good citizenship consists in follow

this fight against uncleanliness and

to refrain from breaking any of the
city's ordinances.
