Every home, every yard, every street and every city and town should be thoroughly cleaned, renovated and beautified. Cleanliness is next to Godliness. It is a virtue for which every individual, every group and every community should strive. To clean up and beautify melans added health and happiness. Do away with rubbish and dirt and in a great measure you will banish disease. You will make your home and your city safer by reducing the fire hazard. You will add to the beauty of your surroundings. You will encourage your boys and girls toward higher ideals of life. You will make them want to sk'y home when the home is comfortable and attractive.
