TOWN DETTERMENT.
What fi Being Dona In Various Com
munities In This Direction,
A eoinmlttifo of the .ward of trndo In
Lowell. Masn., bus taken 1111 Inventory
of nil the billlxuirdh In the town ami
has cniuuiuiilcati'd with thy outhorl-tlL-8
n- jucstiiiK that the IcimhiK of
boards on tltj property be dtacoittln-ui-d
when the time comes for ( heir re
newal. The committee siijh that the
revenue received 1h a trille compared
with the harm done to the beauty of
the town.
Following the example of large cities
nnd more recently many small oiioh,
Kuston, fa., has adopted an iintlspit
thitf law, and the measure has been
signed by Mayor McKeen. People
who have been In the habit of spit
ting tobacco juice over the sidewalks
or on floors of public buildings will be
placed under arrest and lined for their
olTcnses If they are continued. No
tices of warning have been posted.
Conspicuous Improvements hnvo been
inado this summer In the appearance
of Iho business section of IJtlen, N. Y.
New cement walks have been laid on
Genesee nnd other central streets.
This has been the result of agitation
started last winter by President Baker
of tho council, who says he was led to
give ntlention to the matter by his
observation that, whereas tho city was
spending thousands of dollars up Into
tho millions. In fact to provide proper
places upon which dumb animals might
travel, the ways which humankind
must tread were left in n condition un
lit even for the animal kingdom,
Sunnyskle, one of tho longest streets
In Burlington, In., Is to be paved Its
entire length In tho near future. The
street extends from one city limit to
the other, and much of the property
nhutting tho street Is farm laud. Al
though the legal assessment derived
from this property would not begin to
pity tho cost, the return value of the
pavement has been fully promised by
citizens anxious for the Improvement
and who arc more than willing to pay
their full share of the assessment.
As n measure for the protection of
tho school children of New Orleans,
City Health O Ulcer V. T. O'Kellly will
make n sugestlun to the school board
that, beginning at tho next term, all
pupils l)e compelled to bring their own
drinking cups and that common cups
nnd dippers for tiro uso of nil he abol
ished. Under nn ordinance recently passed
by tho city council of Knoxvllle, Tenu.,
It Is unlawful to put down any side
ivftlk In the cty limits except of con
crete. Tho specifications provide for
insieetlojis by the city Inspector, nnd
every safeguard is throwu around the i
ordinance to give the property owner
a good sidewalk nnd protect him
against any inferior work.
The park and cemetery commissions
of Grand Kaplds, Mich., hnvo adopted
formal resolutions lu reference to criti
cisms that have been made agnlnst the
superintendents of tho public parks on
account of their being engaged In pri
vate landscape work. The board takes
the ground that' tho performance of
such work for citizens of Grand Itap
lds results tu the fmluttantinJ Unnrovo-
meni in trie nppearance "or tne'town
end that when done for neighboring
towns they nre simply doinu a neigh
borly act which 'tends to rni the
prestige of Grand Itaplds in matters
of outdoor art, besides having a tend
ency to educate the superintendents
and give them larger experience.
Pays to Beautify School Grounds,
There Is no way in which the taste
of the community may be better dis
played than In tho proper embellish
ment of the school grounds. , A few
places are so handicapped as to be
comparatively helpless, but such con
ditions are only temporary, nnd even
tually alt may 1 placed In the lino
toward beautifying the one piece of
ground in each section In which all
are Interested. Well planted and "well
cared for school grounds are a prom
inent feature In making any district a
part of the town beautiful, for few
residents care to have their properties
unfavorably commented upon by al
lowing them to become unkempt when
near a piece of public property of
unquestioned orderly and ornate ap
pearance. Planting Railway Station Grounds.
The custom of planting railway sta
tion grounds Is each year becoming
more widespread, and the observant
traveling public Is making Its npprovnl
of the same so manifest that nil lines
must eventually take up this work of
aiding In the city and town beautiful
movement If the plant loving traveler
will but commend the railway olllchils
for their enterprise nnd foresight In
embellishing their lines of travel, all
will quickly Join lu the work of beauti
fying these places. Spacious, well
planned depot grounds nre ns much
capital to the cities and towns in which
they are situate ns to the corporation
to which they belong, so that munici
palities should encourage and nid them
In every way possible.
Deceiving Pictures.
The battle between the cntaloguo
houses for supremacy Is not being
fought out by n calm comparison of
goods, quality for quality nnd price
for price, but on the Rpectacular field
of advertising. The one great object
of the catalogue house Is to make the
sham and the shoddy look like the real
thing In a picture.
Plans Beautifying a River Frorrt.
Tree planting, sodding and gardening
to beautify tho liver front Ht Louis
ville, Ky., Is a proposition occupying
the attention of the Outdoor Art league.
The intention of the league is to work
with the Commercial club nnd trans
form what has boon for years an eye
sore to a beautiful front park.
