SINCERITY.
Sincerity Is the heart's proof
of the p'liuluetiens of what the
Up profess. It Is the stamp or
purity which the conscience puts
upon the products of the will.
Every man who Is wise wishes
others to believe thnt he Is sin
cere, for no one wishes others to
think he In u hypocrite. Uut sin
cerity is not a clouk that can be
usftitned for selfish purposes. It
must be uu itbldlug and real
ltiallly In the Interior man. ex
tending Its Influence through ev
erything he does, One who Is
sincere always wishes the ap
pearance to accord with the fact
within, the deed to at the word,
the habit to equul the luteutlou:
he shuns nil deceit nud duplicity,
lie Is unwilling to give rise to
any misunderstanding or to mis
represent anything. lie love to
be frank and open In his state
ments, to say Just what he
menus and to put things clearly.
He dislikes to conceal anything,
to keep secrets from others sim
ply because Ihey ore secrets.
Whatever ho knows that Is use
ful he wlsbes others to know,
nnd whatever he has that Is pood
ho desires others to enjoy with
him. Her. Paul Sperry.

JUNIOR CIVIC LEAGUE.
Good Work Done by Organizing Chil
dren In Snohomish, Wash.
About n year ago Mrs. N. S Mc
Cready, president of the Cosmopolitan
clnl of Snohomish, Wusk., appointed
Mrs. L. D. Stokes superintendent to or
gnn!ze tlie Juulor Civic lengue In the
Emerson school. The pupils in the four
rooms lu thut building did some very
efficient work In destroying noxious
wcciIr. Knch mm flic rntiiiillxn thistle.
Mrs. It. A. Smull. prluclpnl of the
Central school, was made superintend
ent of the league in her building. Talks
were made to the pupils on sanitation
and neatness, nnd they were urged to
begin the good work lu their own
homes. The pupils were required to
give written reports of the work done.
Out of n number of fiOO children In tho
building 315 reported work done. This
woru oppeaieu to me cny council, auu
Mnyor Wood set aside one week In
April as cleanup week. The children
from both buildings were of much help
during this week. Ilubblsh was put in
convenient shape to bo carted away ut
the city's expense.
To Judge from the largo number of
barrels, boxes and heaps of useless
stuff In sight the first day of the haul
ing away, Snohomish was much in
need of this cleanup.
No work was attempted during the
Bummer when Bchool was not in ses
sion, but on the onenlni; of school Mrs.
McCreudy came in person and talked
to all the children, and urged them to
continue the good work. She gn ve each
pupil a card on which this pledge was
printed:
JUNIOR CIVIC LEAGUE PLEDGE.
I will try my vary btit to keep this
pledge.
I will not Injur any tree, ehrub or

Never will I scatter paper or throw
rubbish In publlo places. I will not use
profane language at any time. I will
always protect birds. I will protect
the property of others the same way
that I would my own. I will promise
to bo a true, loyal citizen.

WHERE GERMANY BEATS US.
Citizens Protest, and Offensive Bill
boards Are Removed.
Tho fight on ugly nud offensive bill
boards la not unsuccessful in this coun
try, lu spite of technicalities and mis
applied or too strictly construed legal
limitations. Rut one's mouth waters
while reading of the remarkable prog
ress of the same cause lu Germany.
Decrees have gone forth ordering the
removal or destruction of advertising
Blgtis along the railway rights of way
ns well as on walls nnd roofs of
houses. The umculty of the landscape
is to bo conserved or restored, and
commerce Is to acknowledge the rights
of the higher unture.
Curiously enough, the general order
ugalnst unsightly nnd ugly forms of
street nnd Held advertising Is due
chlelly to a movement among business
men nnd ordinary citizens. Crowded
meetings of protest had been held uud
resolutions ngalnst the billboard abuse
bad been adopted in many places.
Water Meters Sav Money.
A record In water meter tnstniininn
has been made at Spokane. Wash. A
Icport from tho construction depart
ment shows that 030 meters were In
stalled voluutarily by property owners
At their own expenso between Jan. 1
and Juno 1. This Is an average of 110
a month, breaking all records. The
rush for water meters is caused by the
spreading conviction among the con
sumers that buying water that way Is
the most economical way.
Too Much Left to Chance.
The treatment of streets, sidewalks
and roads Is an Important Item. In
this tbere U too much left to chance.

where to spend their vacation bv oneu.

Biitomoblies and- removed from the
sordid Influences of the street.
The uew plnygrouud Is part solid

the tenements that life is worth Uv

Two teachers furnished by the Parks

tots from harm and by easy stages
teach them what Is good and health-

The playground is equipped with
