Spring Is approach ing and the annual effort of the city Officials along this line will be abetted by 'circumspect help from the city beautiful committee which will first try to educate the public along this llrje and then by personal work hunt out and remedy any glaring violations of sanitary-purposed ordinances. As sistance in getting uniform tree Uns, beautifying of front and back yards and a general campaign towards mak ing La Grande a more beaullf 1 com munity. The -field is so large and so Important that It will need 'systema tized .campaigns to accomplish the beat good and - until the .committee outlines Its plans, co-operation frum the public will be stimulated. .

To go Into the schools and stiidy with' the teacher the best methods of ventilation and attend to sanitary con ditions In conjunction with the school management, is another aim of the Child Welfare, movement. This com mittee has Mrs. E.' B. Bragg- at IN head and" It, too, will Boon have well defined campaign to carry out. .: Mrs. Schllke, chairman of the city beautiful movement, said todcyrthat there are so many things to be done that the committee would first meet ond outline its ; plan,, but, "nothlngi that we can do will help the city, un less the citizens and business men land their aid," she affirmed. .: - ' Important announcements will.
