Many complaints have come to the Civic ladies that old barnyards, hen peculiar march created much merri- j houses and slop-bestrewn back yards ment and served the purpose of breaking the ice, prying loose the wall-flowers and getting the people well mixed and mingled together. Next came a Methodist shakedown, the purpose of which was to get everybody to shake hand3 with every body else. 'The slide for life," how ever.' was what created the most mer riment, not to say wild excitement, being something like shooting the bringing forth the effect of pink and I chutes.

The members of Mrs. Porter's class of the Baptist Sunday school were invited to spend the day at the Porter home on Palm avenue, Wed nesday, September 23, and it was a day long to be remembered by all who accepted their kind hospitality. The day was a perfect one and Mrs. Porter's chicken dinner was like the day. "The chief" was in high spirits with so many ladies aorund, and only James Mattingly as a rival for their attention. Mr. Mattingly having smelled chicken, decided he had just as well stay until "Ma" was ready to go home. Our pleasure was also greatly in creased by the arrival of Mrs. J. W. Losher of Portland, whom we are al ways delighted to have with us. After dinner the class adopted the New Movement class organization with the following officers: Presi dent, Mrs. J. R. Maxedon; secretary and treasurer, Mrs. C. T. Payne; teacher, Mrs. R. C. Porter. The members of the class present were: Mrs. Clara Farmer, Mrs. Jos ephine Barrett, Mrs. Hannah Durkie, Mrs. C. T. Payne, Mrs. A. L. Harvey, Mrs. James Mattingly, Mrs. E. K. Hall, Mrs. Harry Simpson, Mrs. Nancy Short, Mrs. J. Sam Wilson, Mrs. S. E. Miller. Mrs. H. A. Spencer, Mrs. S. A.

Complaints have been particularly raised as regards the barnyards in the vicinity of Church street. It seems incredible that people who are fastidiously cleanly in their homes would allow the barnyard to be a disease breeder. These undesirable barns are all over the city. It would seem unnecessary to take steps to have these health and nos tril menaces removed. The regard of the owners of such barnyards for their neighbors should alone lead them to clean up. In a neighborhood proposition it is impossible for a neighbor to sug gest that certain ones clean up, for such suggestion would result In a lifelong feud between the parties. The Ladies' Civic Improvement Club have taken the matter into their consideration and it behooves all owners of filthy barnyards or back yards to clean up or they will receive a gentle notice to that effect, with the result, if they do not com ply Immediately, of having the mat ter turned over to the health authorities. The Civic Club has done more than i any other organization for Ashland. Much improvement is noted this year with the Increase of beautiful lawns and gardens full of flowers. They intend to make Ashland beautiful, so she will be properly fitted to take her place among the health resorts of the world. 11 A 1 N ii Vaudev X . 1 r irilA A jfJ T7 7 I I U till . -n t A il VJL LLd J I Dirprt frnm a tour of the t world.
