It cre- ates an atmosphere of optimism and | encouragement says the chief, giv-| ing these suggestions for a cleaner | city: | “Health and sanitation.

Unsanitary streets, 'y and buildings cause and aggra an epidetaic of disaster. | “Fire prevention: A large part of the fire loss in the United States of approximately one billion dolla since 1933, was caused by carele housekeeping and lack of proper o derliness and thought for fire safe- ty. This annual loss is one of the great handicaps to economic re- covery. problems of safety is intensified by a thorowzh Clean-Up Campaign. | Clean streets, alleys and vacant lots | reduce the possibility of accidents. “City Beautification: Every citizen should have a wholesome pride in | his home city, its streets, play- | “Safety: Public interest in a]]l, | Znotw AN Men, TWomen and Children By These Presents: THAT, Whereas the NATIONAL CLEAN UP, PAINT UP AND FIX UP CAMPAIGN has resulted in many advantages to community life throughout the United States, In Safeguarding HEALTH and SAFETY ; ' In promoting EMPLOYMENT and THRIFT In furthering FIRE PREVENTION; In promoting BETTER HOUSING; In stimulating CIVIC PRIDE; and In making the “HOME AND CITY BEAUTIFUL”; NOW, THEREFORE, Be it known that plans have been perfected for a thorough CLEAN UP, PAINT UP AND FIX UP CAMPAIGN in JUNEAU Beginning May 4.

Common Fire Hazards “Good housekeeping is essential in department stores. Rubbish and litter should be burned in the fur- nace or frequently carried away from the premises. Waste paper and packing materials, including excel- sior and hay, present obvious haz- ards and the shipping room and receiving room should receive spec- jal attention. Supplies of wrapping paper, excelsior and the like may be stored in metal lined bins with au- tomatically closing lids having coun- terweights. “It is scarcely necessary to add that smoking should be strictly prohibited at all times in the ship- ping room. A safe procedure is to prohibit smoking throughout the premises except in a special room arranged for that purpose. “Paints and paint rags are dan- gerous, the latter being subject to spontaneous combustion because of their impregnation with linseed oil. Oily clothes of all kinds should be kept in self-closing metal cens of | approved types which should be emptied daily and their conterfis de- | stroyed. Spontaneous combustion | may be guarded against by proper housekeeping.”. ... SOW EXCESS SEEDS Here's a suggestion for your left over flower seed! Plant it in the vegetable garden for cutting. Most gardeners order considerably more seed than is necessary to fill their garden. They do this wisely, because it will assure them of suf- ficient plants of each type. What to do with the remainder has been a problem. Many have saved the seed for another year, but this is poor policy, for this seed deterior- Clean, Healthy, 1 hrifty, Safe and Beautiful CITY OF JUNEAU, By 1. GOLDSTEIN, Mayor.
