CLEAN-UP WEEK SHOULD LAST \ |Chamber of Commerce' Committee Urges Resi- dents to Continue Work With the annual weekly clean- up campaign coming to a close tonight residents of Juneau are urged to continue the effort by keeping the city clean and having jclean-up week last for twelve| months of the year, by the Cham- ber of Commerce committee that has been in charge of the drive for a better, cleaner and more beautiful city. That this is more than an idea| on the part of a few people, who desire that Juneau be kept clean, with rubbish handled properly, and vacant lots, yards and alleys free of unsightly debris, is indicated in City Ordirance No. 33, “To pro- vide for public health and prevent | and remove nuisances.” 1 Among the provisions of this or- dinance are; it is unlawful to throw or empty out suds or filthy water resulting from washing clothes or other foul or filthy matter in any gutter, ditch or near any in- habited place on his own premises or premise adjoining; it is ‘the duty of every owner, occupant or lessee of any house, store, restaur- ant or other building to provide a proper receptacle for all garbage and to remove the same, or cause the same to be removed; it is the duty of every owner, occupant or lessee of any property in the city to keep the gutter in front of such property clean and free of ob- structions to the free passage of water; Section 3. of this ordinance is so pertinent to the subject of clean- ing up the city and keeping it cleaned up. that it is published in full: “It shall be unlawful for an per- son to throw into or deposit upon any. public street, highway or grounds, or. in any gutter or ditch, or upon any private premises, or anywhere .except upon the tide lands of the Gastineau Channel at the point of low tide between the Russian Cemetery and aid Gas- tineau Channel, any glass, broken ware, dirt, rubbish, garbage, or filth, nor shall amy such rubbish, garbage or filth be allowed to re- main upon any private premises. All dirt, rubbish, soot, ashes, cin- ders or filth of any kind in any heuse, cellar, yard or other place which the City Marshal shall deem necessary for the health of the City to be removed, shall be car- ried away therefrom by and at the expense of the owner or occupant of such house or other piace where the same may be found and remov- ed and deposited at the point on Gastineau Channel above desig- nated.

Cohen’s Novel | That character expert, Lionel i Barrymore, gives one of his most ‘,picturnsque performances in | “Sweepings,” RKO-Radio Picture, opening tomorrow at the Coliseum. Lester Cohen’s popular novel of |2 man who rests the whole found- | dation of his life squarely upon his | faith and hope in his children, |only to totter to a grand, pitiful |ruin as each fails him, has been adroitly transferred to the screen by the author, who, it is said, also aided in selecting the cast. Certainly, Daniel Pardway a | made-to-order character for the | eldest Barrymore. After the death {of his wife, a sacrifice to his am- | bitions, Daniel is vitally bound up in two interests—his store, which he founded in the ashes of the Chicago fire—and his four children whom he hopes some day will come into his store as. his partners. But the success of Pardway be- comes the runiation of his fam- ily. Eric Linden plays Pardway's youngest son, his favorite, and the only one who realizes his own con- tribution to his father's death. His emart, young impudence is admir- ably contrasted with his later re- gret and high resolve. William Gargan, an expert in nonchalance, blithely goes his, way to end up a moral wreck. Gloria Stuart plays the only daughter who, after her marriage to a mer- cenary prince, manages to keep is the mewspapers well supplied with scandal. George Meeker plays the son whose inability to. become in- terested in anything beyond win- dow-trimming is a keen disappoint- ment to his father, |ALASKA AIR EXPRESS TO REPEAT SPECIAL SIGHTSEEING TRIPS Due to the tremendous success of the special sightseeing flights conducted by the seaplane Pioneer of the ‘Alaska Air Express on last Sunday, the special offer will be repeated tomorrow, J.
