Many are the nnxlnus Inquirers who apply for Information as to the first work to attack in the fight for civic beauty. The question la usually of only local significance ami may bo solved by those Intel ested If they will but ob serve the most pressing needs of ttie community. As a rule, nothing will so effectually and so cheaply Improve a section as the cleaning of streets, park vays and vacant lots. This accom plished, an air of general thrift and elc.iuilness Is at ome noticeable by nil. whether residents or visitors, individ uals will catch the fever, and a general cleanup of private piemlfes will stl'I further Improve the scene, says the Los Angeles Time's. Some funds will be needed for the public work, nnil these may be obtained by starting an improvement association with u low membership fee, and the organization need not live beyond the cleanup pe riod. Whether the association Is to bo made permanent should bo gauged by the Interest and enthusiasm manifest by the general public. If only a few are Interested the fight for permanence will prove n hard one, but If enthusi asm dominates the whole people do not rest with n simple cleanup, which Is only n negative move, but engage in some permanent Improvement looking to the beautifying and bettering of the whole field under consideration. Doubt less the easiest task and the one most productive of lasting results In propor tion to the cost Is the planting of street trees. If money Is only on baud for a single block of planting, do not be dis couraged, but make this block com plete and orderly, and It will then not prove so hard to add thereunto. At this stage of the game some enthusiastic, energetic workers will be needed to fan the fi-eble spark Into an active flame. If you can get one street plant ed you can eventually nnd In the near future secure the adornment of all. Any community with well planted Gtreets Is well on the highway townrd the goal of the clt beautiful, and less difficulty will be experienced with every successive step. Flower Bedecked Windows. Here is an Idea which could bo adapt ed to the beautifying of towns with great advantage. The municipality of I'urls offers prizes for the most attrac tive window decorations by using blooming plants, there being several classes In which competitors may strive that Is. single windows, whole house fronts and the fronts :f mercan tile establishments.
