CLEAN UP DAY It is a growing custom for all cities and villages to have a municipal clean up day Rubbish and filth will uccuni ulate on the best regulated premises This gives a town an untidy appeal ance. Even if each place is cleaned up thoroughly occasionally, the adjoin ing property often remains untidy so that the general appearance is not much improved.. Especially in the east and middle west where refuse accumulates during the long winter, have village clean up days become very general and popular. When the snow has finally disap peared and the lawns turn green, all the sticks, leaves and dead grass are raked up and burned. The old cans and other refuse are carted away, Broken fences arc repaired and many buildings are painted. Each family vies with its neighbors to make the neatest, cleanest appearance, like old fashioned housewives with the week's washing. The people who are of slovenly hab its are required by the authorities to clean up their premises. Thus the whole town takes on an appearance of cleanliness and thrift, Nothing can make a better impres sion on visitors than tidy, well kept streets and yards. It influences strangers to locate and found homes, It generates community pride. A little more enthuiiiamn for Ban- dons cleanup day would work wonders to the attractiveness of the city, give ' pride to its people and become a fin ancial asset. It is espcciallly desirable that a town having ambitions as a recreation resort should present a pleasing and attractive appearance. Nicely kept homes with their profu&ion of flow ers is one of the greatest attractive features offered by Los Angeles and other resorts. Bandon should clean up. Realizing that a clean city is a civ ic and financial asset, Portland is now striving to make itself "The beauti ful city of Roses" through the awak ening of city pride. The mayor will bo asked to pro claim Lincoln's birthday, Feb. 12th, a general clean up day for all Port land. The Portlnnd papers say that every home owner and tennant will have an opportunity, syMemlically and intelligently to beautify his sur roundings. Specialists in every line of beautification work are preparing articles to give specific information. A lecture bureau and question and suggestion box have been established. Three thousand dollars will be dis tributed in prizes for the best looking lot. The flowers are blooming now in some yards of Bandon and they give a prophetic intimation of the beauti ful garb the city might don if she so willed and which would very much im prove her esthetic appearance. FOOT AND MOUTH DISEASE According to Dr. K. W. Stnuder ex tension profesor of veterinary medi cine of the Iowa Stato College the foot and mouth disease is practically the measles of the hoofed family. It iv no more fatal than measles is to the human family. Left alone it will run its course in about two weeks with no serious results other tan to leave the unimal temporarily weak with sick ness. The disease is usually contract ed in about fortyeight hours after ex posure, although sometimes it does not manifest itself for several days. As in typhoid fever cases with hu mans, theio arc raro cases where the disease germs are carried by the ani mal for two years or more, Infected cattle should have a soft diet with u clean Htublu and plenty of clean witter.

The only trouble is that children may contract fatal bowel el trouble, in extreme cases by eating this meat. David F. Houston, U. S. secretary nt n.rr;niihirn kiivs with the exception of Illlinols every state has successful ly rnnnrl with the disease. We I10J it wall in h.md there in a short w liaiu ..w.. - time. The United States is the only' .,i:., tint nna nvnr been able to handle the epedemic because of its very contagious nature, kven uer mnnv hml to irive it up at one time They called off their scientists' who were combating the disease because it ,a fnnmi thnt the men themselves nu w wi.r snreiidinir the disease. The gov eminent finally sent the scientists and their exneriments to a lonely island where even the birds did not visit to mrrv the serins to the adjoining land Secretary Houston says results Imvi. tustified the severe measures now adopted and we realize that whili it works a hardship on a few individu als, yet what would it bae meant had wn been unable to stop the thing. When the boll wevil first reached Texus from Mexico some wanted the government to condemn and destroy all the cotton in the infected district This was not done because the value of the cron would have been over o million dollars if not infected with the wevil The result was that even that crop was a failure and cotton crops worth many millions were lost each vear for many years. The heroi method adopted in the fot and mouth disease has proved a daring and great economy. WAR AND CHARITY The horrors of war and the suffer ing of the non-combatants in Belgium is a story often and well told. Am erica came forward with bountiful ifts of food clothing and money Great ships of the deep are now transporting supplies for their relief, The Rockefeller foundation donated upwards of a million dollarc to their work. It has become the fashion nearly everywhere for people to de prive themselves of accustomed lux uries or even necessities that they might help the women and chldren of Belgium At a time when 350,000 wage earn ers were idle and suffering in New York city alone, and could secure no substantial relief from their country men, charity was freely bestowed on the warring people of Europe. We view it sentimentally, foolish to send a world of wealth acrdss the sea and ignore innocent suffering in the next block, as it is for decent wo men to bestow love and flowers upon criminals often to the neglect of the more deserving. Of course it is not so bad to feed babies in Europe while leaving them to die in one's own home town for the luck of the same essen tials, as it would be to give the chari ty to criminals. We often can not see the beggar at our door but must search through the world for the Holy Grail. Now comes a story from Poland of dire want and misery far surpassing that of Belgium. The armies of Germany and Russia have fought over it and traversed this country several times and have de spoiled it of food stuff The poor transportation facilities barely suffice to fed the armies. Already largo numbers of women and children have died from hunger and exposure and vast numbers more will follow. The Germuns have given what relief they ure able to but their own needs and circumstances are such that they can not render material help. The North 'German Gazette published the following appeal to Americans: 'The Imperial government will be pleased if humanitarian endeavors ex erted in the United States on behalf of the Belgian civil population suf fering on account of the war, and which have been so well carried out, were extended to the civil population of Russian Polund, which in many respects is in a worse position. Lastly comes Madam Slavka Grou itch, wife of the under secretary of foreign affairs in Servia to America to seek aid for 700,000 Servians who are in concentration camps. They are without food or seed for planting. These people are largely innocent sutferers. They are the vic tims of war. It would be a line thing to help them or any other people in such distress. But charity should be gin at homo and should stay pretty closo to thore until home peoplo are in better circumstances than foreign ones, If ull tliu people neutered through the United States in need of food, clothing, shelter, medical ututUtiinrtt mid surgii'ul attention, etc. worn luought to out) pluutt It would mitki it slitittinif uf mlt'i'Hng iuIIk emnpiiru I tit (n lluil uf Ituiupti.
