COMFORT IN NEATNESS A clean-up campaign which has really interested a large number of citizens should produce results that last throughout the year. Of course | raking the yard and making a gar- den soon give place to mowing the lawn and gathering flowers or vege- tables es they develop. House} painting does not need to be re-| peated soon, but it should inspire the inhabitants to make the rest of the property look its best. This means keeping rubbish gathered up, sweeping the sidewalk regularly, refraining from throwing papers around the yard, and so on. During the warm months the smoke evil abates naturally in a strictally residence neighborhood. But it should not be forgotten. There are furnace and chimney cleaning to be attended to and other steps taken to 1 the smoke menace tho next season. The relation of health to clean- }, Wmess is obvious. Swatting the fly} }® and killing the rat, demanding clean stores markets and soda fountains} and combatting the spitting evil are a few of the most obvious ac-! tivities to be emphasized in any clean-up week but also in the other 51 weeks of the year. This sort of tidiness about a city) { will help to keep the residents com- fortable during the coming hot weather. The sun’s rays may be just as hot on a dustless pavement} as on a dusty one, but the traveler will be better able to endure them on the former than on the latter. —_ SUGAR AND COAL At the present time it is sugar) which is worrying the housewives of the country. With a prospective price of 12 cents a pound for can- wing, the affluent housewive is an- @oyed, the middle-class one finds that she has to cut down her sum-| mer wardrobe or postpone needed house repairs. and the woman who} has to figure closer still has to cut out most of her canning, thus eith- er increasing her next winter’s food bills or bringing down the quality| of her family’s nourishment, There may be some esoteric rea- son why the price of sugar should] rise so much at this time, but there| certainly is no reason which the ordinary citizen can understand. It will take a powerful lot of ex- plaining on the part of the big sugar people to make him feel he is not being cheated. As to coal — well, it will be warm soon. With the characteris- tic American tendency to postpone facing anything disagreeable, the coal situation is being allowed to take care of itself. There is plenty of intelligence in the country. Granted that most of us are economic illiterates, there is a saving remnant of business men who are the economjc su- periors of the rest of us.

The Mexican government is anxious to ‘have citizens of the United States find out all about the charms of our southern neighbor. “There is a new Mexico,” they say, and the ad- vance guard of officials has arrived North Americans are not yet con- vinced of the fact that “there is a Mexico that is safe and commer- cially profitable to live and do busi- ness in.” Yet its ardent advertisers say that it is now both safe and progressive, with big hotels, news- paper plants, country clubs and business plants of all kinds, in Mex- ico City and in other parts of the country, There are many new schools in Mexico, and Mexicans who have studied in the United States are returning to their own country with a new viewpoint and a healthy touch of the American spirit, Golf and public playgrounds, srahaeological discoveries, art. hunt- ing and fishing, agricultural oppor- tunities and attractions for the casual tourist are all to be set forth| in Mexico’s bid for respectful at- tention. Banditry and murder as a fine art will not be exhibited. It is an excellent plan.

Undoubtedly the| big fellows are suffering from the! surtaxes, and relieving them .to| some extent would increase busi- ness for everyone. But the little fellows are finding themselves p ing pretty high prices for eve! thing again, and they need a life| }f anyone does, In fact, the little fellows, if} asked to vote on the matter, would! doubtless manifest a belief that if they were relieved of half their in- come tax, and the money thus saved went to buy things they and their families, and perhaps their small businesses, need, business| might improve enough from the bottom so that the big fellows would not have to worry so much about their surtaxes. —$<—— rer | Don't believe that Prof, Einstein has amended the law of gravity un- til the paperweight flies up off your desk and hits you in the chin.| a The moral of the Clean Book Bill in the New York legislature} seems to be “In order to prevent publishers from putting out inde-| cent books, there must be no books.” —— The trouble with present day they make bystanders think the speaker has just found out about Darwin. ——___ The unfortunate thing about the man who has to eat humble} pie is that he can’t dodge the under crust. Strike Terminated ROCK SPRINGS, Wyo., April 25. —The strike, or walkout, which has been on for the past ten days between the Central Coal & Coke company and its miners, was settled Wednes day and the miners went back to their labors Thursday morning. Btate executives of the U. M.
