bring the beauty of American towns
right down to tile railroad truck*. Vn-
der the auspices of tiie National
soclntlon of real estate boards, the
"back yards" of towns and cities are
to be tidied up. Paint, whitewash and
»hrubbery are to be employed In the
work. Ash and rubbish heaps. If they
must exist, are to be screened from
the eyes of the traveler. Pride In the

America may refute the charge thut 1

Large and Small Cities
Have United Interests
The larger towns and cities cannot
make progress and prosper without
the smaller communities nnd rural sec
tions. Nor can the latter expand and
succeed In achievement of the things
that are worth while without general
co-operutlve impulses from the centers
of population. They are dependent
•one upon the other. Here He» a wide
opportunity for service by the city,
town and rural pre«s through realiza
tion of their mutual Interests nnd con
structive efforts In their advancement.
The closer the cities and rural sec
tions are drawn together, both In their
social and Industrial relations, the bet
ter for both. I.et no city publisher or
country publisher Imagine that he cun
live unto himself He ennnot. Quick
communication through the automo
bile, rural free delivery, telephone and
many other means of Intimate associa
tion have made centers of population
and rural communities Increasingly de
pendent upon one another.—Birming

Planning to Clean Up
"Back Yards" of Cities
M. R. Cooper
In the joyous procession of new.hats
that announce the coming of spring,
there are many types—all the way
from audacious and amusing to pic
turesque and dignified. Two outstand
ing style features distinguish them—
they are colorful and they are
trimmed. In the three hats shown
above the new modes are reflected
with a tall-crowned hat of ombre
georgette at the top. It« upturned
straw brim is covered with varl-,
colored-little blossoms and a pompon
of them Is perched on the crown. The
bat below is a dignified turban with a
rich applique trimming on the coro-
net. The group Is finished with a ■
lovely picture hat having Howers made
of shaded ribbon at the front.

Every dollar spent for paint saves
$5 or 410 or $100 what would other
wise be spent on repairs or lost
through depreciation. When properly
protected by paint, a frame dwelling
will lust for generations and the main
