D, SEYMOUR I am heartily in favor of a Clean-Up and PalntUp campaign like those that have beeum» nual civie institution tn thou- of other Amer cities in t yea and I believe some thing should be done at once to start it going The best evidence of proper com- munity pride is the Interest shown in matters of this kind. Guty to promote conservation and production in every way possible— to conserve health and property as well as the more sentimental civic ideals, and to promote business and industry, a# well as community pride, that all may be enabled as well as urged to advance our na ticnal and our personal prosperity. Cleanliness, thrift and civic pride! are the essentials not only for homes and towns beautiful, but for) those that are kept safe from the) ravages of disease, fire and weather. | should be| Cellars and attics cleared of the accumulations of trash and fire risk, and liberal coats of paint should be applied wher- ever the ravages of the elements have begun to get in their work on’ the outside, while walls and floors) are made sanitary by paint and varnish. The work of paint and painters) in bringing cheerfulness and color and hygiene to the home te dis counted, however, if the rear yard ts left to afford @ hiding piace for disenso breeding trash and refuse. “All the insurance and fire pro- tection people ought to help arouse lulerest in this campaign, for the national fire jonas thru preventable fives i ebout $250,000,000 a year, ho even the annual fire lone ts xeeeded by the annual loss thru be lnck of painting,” saya Prof. H ft.

MERRIMAN Painting up follows cleaning up as surely as pring follows winter. You |oan’t paint anything until you have | But the surface into @ condition to |reeeive the paint, and in cleaning up you will find that it is necessary to paint. Every wooden surface must be filled with some weather resisting material that will keep the moisture out—unless you do, the moisture expands the wood, soften. jing it as well, and then when hot sunshine and winds dry out the | timber, contraction takes place and | the wood splits, Cracks appear and at once greater destruction follows. |1f you fill all surfaces and keep them filled there in no chante for deterioration to commence, Just go look, Look at the east and south aides of your house in Particular, Examine them closely. Lf necessary take @ broom and give | the places around the window sills or where any joints occur 4 good brushing, Now look at aii the fine cracks, or maybe big ones, too, which appear. You may delay painting for some time; yes, anoth- ler year, but just as surely have | you leesened the life and value pro- portionately of your entire buliding. Your home may be oid fashioned, even of poor design, and you wish so many times for the newer and more modern dwelling. Just remem- ber this when you are having these regrete—that the city te made up of thousands of different buildings, many 20 and 30 years old now, and as Brattle becomes of greater age so will be the age of the buildings —end each year the architectural types will change, what is modern | today may be old-fashioned in five | years, but someone will be living jim them, for the age of « bulliding means little if it has been properly taken care of, especially if it was well constructed. And it looks prac- tleally no cider than the last coat of paint. Plant vines and flowers your house, and whether you live in @ cabin or @ mansion, your home will look beautiful. Flowers re about but care for them. PAINTS ANF FORTY PROMIT SEATTLE mn tlt, il John Hay J. A. Helstrom Independent P. & W. P. Co. } A. R. Kloth “SAVE THE SURFAGHOU WI BIL VALI NLP |?
