THURSDAY. APRIL 2. “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. DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC HEALTH.
