As a pleasant diversion for the evcidng, were the playing of .curds and nee JIe work. Mrs. E. A. McEuchran won high honors at cards, while Mrs. Stella Ingle received consolation. During the evening, Stewart Men- : JIoueclcaning used to be a thing of intimate nature, iiululj,' t'd in (ir not, as the nature of the housewife dictated. .Today .tins spiing dean-lip is "a civic matter in which every citizen is expected to do his share or have the Uoy Scouts and the sani tary police camped on his trail. In Illinois they are making: it a state alfair, and recognising the close relation of cleun inss to henlth by combining a health, program with the clean up. A week has been set. aside by Governor Small, and this is the program. "Sunday Clergymen and Sunday school leaders will start the campaign with sermons on health and cleanliness. Monday Community clean-up day. Cleaning around homes, yurds, vacant lots and" alleys und burning of rubbish. Tuesday Fly, insect and rat extermination day. Wednesday Daby day. Lectures at civic centers' on the care of .babies. IPI........1..., tl..l... lu All nut-Atila u'lin linvp not registrar the birth of their children are urged to do so then, and Arthur Barton. 1 . Friday School children's day. Health lectures and dis cussions in all the public, private and parochial schools. Saturday Medical examination day, when people who need medical examination but have neglected it are urged to con sult their physicians or the public health officials on their con dition and the best wny to preserve good health. Health and cleanliness are inseparable. It is a good idea to combine the two subjects in special observance. . The health program without the cleanliness program would soon meet with insupetable obstacles, but with all the citizens interested in both, the outlook for any community is good. Following the local clean-up week, it is reported La Grande is cleaner than it has ever been before. r-r-. : , , HIGHWAY MAINTENANCE President Harding touched a vital spot when he spolie of the need for a carefully devised system of highway mainte nance and inspection as a part of any federal good roads pro- . ..... ..il 11. 1 I... gram. It makes no oiuercnce wneuier me. iuuu i; nu.uii in part by the federal government or wholly by lesser powers, the principle is the same. 'Highways, no matter how generous the outlay for construction, cannot be maintained without patrol and constant repairs." .It is a truth which leading engineers have been trying for years to impress upon the public, with scant success. It is true that any effective system of patrol and continuous attention to small repairs will bo costly. It will not be so costly in the long run as neglect. The neglected road is destructive to the traffic which passes over it, wastes an incredible amount of time and must be entirely replaced long before replacement should be necessary. Every enlightened country of Europe rec ognized this fact long ago, and acted accordingly. With or without government assistance, the country faces a big road building period. Only as provision is made for fre quent inspection and repairs will the roads warrant the out lay of the taxpayer's money. It will pay taxpayers everywhere to- keep in touch with- highway programs nnd see what is dune in' each! loenlity .to protect, the property in which they, have in vested. ' v.'
