A PUBLIC DUTY- TO PERFORM Every cltlsen of any community any where has a public duty' to perform. And if this statement does not cover everyone, wo cannot find language to ault. So, Mr. Citlacn, Miss Citizen or Mrs. Citizen, If you have been of tho opinion that someone ciao can do your public work for you, you have another think coming. It you feel that because you have little interest in a clean-up cai ^algn, for instance, that you should take no part then you aro mlstr'ten. If you have a talent tor doing thia, and not for Something oise, then you should do it by all means. It may be a little thing you have an aptitude for doing, but by all moana you should feel an interest In public affaira, and strive to uti those public spirited cltlsena who seem to have shouldered tho en Uro bm; .en. The editor ot The intelligeroer has is Veld to tho oplulon that taere uafii public wnrk for cw;j...ie to a hand in Rome ot lt, and that no man, woman or child la a good citi zen till, he or. 8..0 feels an interest lb those which tend for the unbuild ing of their community in some way, and no?, only fe??la ax interest !n them but begins to do something for bring ing then to pass. How many times we have heard some citizen aay: "Ob, well, this does not concern mo, becauso If have no Interest In the?? t h logs. -*> i will not help me any, nor will it put any.monpy into my pocket." some other per son muht do'tft? Work this shirker i: leaving undone. This rule applies no only to little act? of public concern but also to matter? of business. Titer* are certain ^interests which should berauBc of their public character re eel ve Hupporl from all good citizens Tb? church, thc school, the pre??, ai agenta for community uplift, ?iiouii receive ?upjvort from all citizens Whether or not they receive direct benefit from them. A newspapci which stands, UH ali good newspaper! should, for tile upbuilding and growth of Its community, deserves tho sup port of the public. If you cnn du nothing else, subscribe lo lt, or fur nish it new?, showing thal you ure Interested in thc fight it is making for the public good, (io to church, at tend Behool functions and encourage those doing the public work. Then, there is a direct ami tangible result ?lc ri ved hy one from becoming Interested in public matters, lt lia? au effect upon character. The man or the woman who I? p bl lc spirited ha? a better grasp upon Ile, than thc selsrcentered individual who cares nothing for the upbuilding of his oi lier community. We know men and women who, outsido of a few rela tive?, and tliey are close kin, would not be missed from the world if they should nccldently drop off. What work can they point to na huving been don;* for tho betterment of mankind? Per haps they have mased a fortune, but In hoarding lt they have killed every gentler instinct, and havo become a poor citizen. On the other hand a poor man may bo a good citizen by supporting every good move, and aid ing In pushing forward the work for a better place in which to live. How much better the world would be if all persona would lind their niche in public affairs and till it. The millennium will come when this la accomplished. ONE WAY TO DO THINGS. Anderson College shows a game spirit. Several years ago the people of that city decided to build a college and subscribed $100,000 and a beau tiful site. The college was turned over to the State Baptist convention, but every dollar of the money wa? given by Anderson people. The college was organized and put upon a high plane by J. K. Breedin, now editor ot the Manning Time?. When Mr. Brecdln retired, the trus ! tees decided to take their time and get for the head of tho institution the best man available. Dr. Jas. P. Kin ard, who had liad an executive aa veil as professional connection with Win throp for years, waa chosen. It waa a great day for Anderson col leg -, for Dr. Kinard is so well equipped, so woll suited for the place. Ho secur ed tho services of a' lady principal who han no superior In thc South, MI ss Helen Smith, daughter of J. Al len Smith* or Abbeville. Now comes the announcement that the tvusteea have secured the service? of Fred M. Burnett as treasurer. This shows that they do mean business. Mr. Burnett ls a young mountain boy, educated at Pu mian, successful in mill w?lf?rer work ' under Thos. F. Parker, and waa invited to Anderson to put on a campaign for a $100,000 Y. M. C.

This meeting ls expected to act as a ccrebro-splnel Inoculation, with a view of Imparting to the nerve centers of tho community a new en ergy in civic spirit, pride sad en deavor. The clean up and paint up spirit seems to be abroad In the land, lt has been somewhat slow in Cincinnati. But lt has Como at last, and the pros pect's are moat reassuring for suc cess. The movement which has now I been started, and to neglect which ; would be disgraceful, is apV?rently the most systematic and comprehen sive of any so far launched. . Pr- chief value is that it aims at permanent reform and continued ef fort. The trouble with many past movements of the kihd has been that they were a flash in the pas, and were gotten up to wash the face of the city but once. The* town was then al lowed to slip back into the mere or less bedraggled condltoin. Now, however, lt is proposed to form an organisation on business lines, having sixty branches In as roany districts. Each of these dis trict? ls to conduct a clean up cam paign not once, but continuously.. The chairmen of these districts organisa tions will oonstlwte a general osecu tlve committee. They are expected to furnish the plans, the enthusiasm and the prod to the sub organisations. The' larger,body ls to become a part of the national clean np and paint up campaign bureau. St..Louts, which is j necking to Induct a new civic con [wclfmanosR into the slothful oitiy.i . American town? and to build rep .i condition of lazy contentment. There ure to be carried on a numb".- ol lines of work ail closely related to a cleaner and more beaulful city. Vacant lots and sanitation will be given attention. There will bc com mittees to stimulate planting and sod ding, to inspire permanenco in thc work of cleaning alleys and back yards. .<, interest thc boy scouts, school children and all youth in the cause. In fact, thc movement looks to the futuro as well as to the present. Prin cipal? and teachers in public and parochial schools and city officials have given the proposed plan their unqualified indorsement. It is proposed to incite the public Into a eery orgy of painting and clean ing up in early spring, so that by A pull Arbor Day, the city will bc so thoroughly transformed tbat no one will care to have it revert to past conditions. Tills movement seemed tb start with tho right idea. One of its vitally Im portant features is that it looks to ward the training of Ibo children. They will be taught to look upon an uncleanly city as a porsonal disgrace. WC hope that those back of tho plan will, figuratively srfcakir^, arouse tho city from its Indifference, and Will Inspire in it a new civic spirit that will outlast a merely occasional spasm of energy. Cincinnati certain ly does not want to bc behind other cities in this regard. With our hills and valleys and the unsurpassed nat ural beauty of our environment, we should be inspired to great and con tinued efforts. And we should feel a hamed not to make them.-Cincin nati Times-Star. A timid Sign.

It Hind Sight Better Than Front Sight? Read This Article, And Then An swer This Old Time Worn Question. At llrat thought ono would Kay that lt waa; but when tho matter ia given a moment's thought, one will won der what good will result from learn ing thc truth about a matt *r after lt ia too late to rectify any mistake that baa been made. Of course, wc all. know that it is much easier to say: - " I told you so", after an event than to be able to fortell what will take place under certain conditions. B-u-t what does it profit one, to know about a certain thing after lt ls too late to remedy a mis take already mado? That's thc point. In tills connection, it might well be said that "front night" In the mat ter of painting one's own home, or a tenant's house ls a far better bus iness policy that leaving lt without paint, and then later when thc cle ments have eaten into thc woodwork terribly, be compelled to pay a re pair bill ten times thc amount of what it would have ..oat to paint lt in thc flr^t place. It ia a well known and generally ac cepted fact that paint protects build ings from tho ravages of wind, sun, rain, frost, snow and Icc much bet ter than any one agency. And at a very, very small cost. This being true, it strikes the thinking person as a remarkably strange thing that so many persons neglect this matter of protection of property from the damage which the weather is con tinually doing to their property, and yet they would think that you were absolutely crazy, If you should sug gest that they did not carry protec tion aagiuBt Ure, in the shape of Are insurance. Why is this? Wo know that all prAperty in this southern clim ate, where the sun's hot rays are beating on it for seven or eight months out of every year ls continually de preciating in value; and yet there arc so many, many property owners who neglect this very necessary mat ter of paint protection, to say noth ing about the looks, of thc houses. One ..should not, udder any clrcum astancep, think of paint as an expense but rather aa an Investment; for that is what it IB , and a mighty good one, too. Property ls valuable If it were not, you would not carry fire insur ance. Weather insurance is far more necessary than fire insurance. There is only one defense against weather, and that is paint.--Of course, ono should use good judgment In the selec tion of the paiiit; because if it is in ferior in quality, there is very little protection afforded. We sell a paint that has stood the test of more than fifty years experience. Our custom ers are those who have used Patton's "Sun Proof paints. Its ingredients are thoao which experience has prov ed to be the mostjjsjolent in protect ing property against* fife ravages of the elements. Patton's "Sun Proof'.' paint spreads smoothly and evenly. It places a bulwark, between your buildings and tho weather- that affords you the greatest protection possible. Not only does Oils well 'and favor ably known Patton's "Sun Proof" paint afford the maximum amount ot protection possible for a given amount of money, but a house paint? d with this paint will present the mest pleas ing appearance possible. We carry every color that's made. We can give you any and every combination that your taste should dictate. We will furnish .an estimate.- for any job at any time without any obligation on your part, whatever; and we know the paint business just as you know your A, B, C's.
