TUESDAY, MARCH 11, 11)13.
Lancaster was about as dry
Saturday and Sunday as we
have ever seen it, there being
nothing doing in the liquor
traffic.
Another trouble ahead for
the men, for which we feel it
our duty to prepare them. The
season of the Easter bonnet is
almost upon us.
The Californian who swore he
would not shave till Bryan was
elected, has been considerably 1
inconvenienced, doubtless, but
so far has kept his word. We
learn, however, that he compromised
by having his whiskers
cut the other day.
The fact that anti-suffragists
have joined with their sisters
who want "votes for women" in
denouncing the treatment of
the latter in Washington bust
week, is proof against the idea,
so often aspoused, that women
cannot treat their sisters fairly
when there is heated debate or
feeling among them.
The Grover Cleveland Birthplace
Memorial Association has
l ? 1, A A U ? ?IJ PI 1 1 | I
UUUgllL llie UU1 V/USVelclIIU IlOIIiestead
at Caldwell, N. -J., and the
townspeople have contributed
land adjoining it as a site for 1
the Grover Cleveland memorial
library, for which funds have '
been promised by Andrew Carnegie.
A new man is to be reckoned
with in the politics of South '
Carolina and he is John G. '
Clinkscales, professor of mathe- :
matics in Wofford College. He 1
will run for governor of South :
Carolina and his platform will
not be how whiskey shall be 1
sold, but that the masses of the1'
people shall be educated. We
wonder if this college professor!1
will be received by the people as (
Woodrow Wilson was.
Americans admire a man of i j
the Sir Thomas Lipton type. J
who has come with another<
challenge for a yacht race. He
was a game loser but has served
notice that we are not to
keep the America's cup without
another light for it. We take :
off our hat to Sir Thomas. j
Americans cannot fail to appreciate
the knightly spirit of
the man, who is never willing to
give up as long as there seems j
to be a fighting chance of success
for another Shamrock
We consider The Newberry |
Observer slightly hypercritical (
when it seeks to amend the following
editorial statement ap-;
pearing in Tuesday's issue of j
The News: "Notwithstanding
the fact that Texas is the largest
state in the Union, Mr.
Burleson will be the first Texan
to hold a cabinet position."
The Observer reminds us that
John It. Reagan held a similar
position, that of attorney general,
in the cabinet of the
Southern Confederacy. Our
statement had distinct reference
to the "Union," as our contemporary
will se from above
quotation, for wl < h "The Lancaster
News," not "The Lancaster
Ledger," is responsible.
The Ledger, contemporary, was 1
discontinued some seven years |
ago. |

"CLEAN-UP DAY" SATUR- 1
DAY. c
There is a most praiseworthy \
undertaking on foot this week, i
begun by a woman's club, which t
should meet with the hearty
co-operation of all our citizens. I
The West End Neighborhood s
Club, organized primarily for J
civic improvement, has begun t
its spring work by giving at- \
tention to a very important t
phase of the question. Aware t
of the mildness of the winter c
just past, these thoughtful wo- i
men are fearful of results if the c
matter of proper sanitation is 1
disregarded. They feel that
spring cleaning should be start- 1
ed earlier this year than formerly,
in order that disease germs
may be successfully combatted. *
This club has therefore set *
apart a day which each mem- *
ber will devote to cleaning up v
her own premises. This they c
are planning to do thoroughly. a
Front and back yards will be r
carefully looked after and even
the sidewalks in front of the
houses will be swept and clean- .
ed. And what these women
plan to do. they ask that every
woman in Lancaster do also.
The work will not fall heavily
on any one worker, but the improved
appearance of her surroundings
and the feeling of
satisfaction that she has done
everything in her power to pre- t
vent "disease from dirt," should ^
be sufficient reward for what- v
ever labor and time is given to ']
the work. The club has set o
apart next Saturday. March 15, .
as "Clean-up Day," and its pros- j,
ident asks us to urge the women
of other neighborhoods to \
join in the work and to request c
that the town authorities put
the "street hands" to work on
all back lots, and later on send
a wagon round to collect tin 1
cans and other rubbish which r
has been gathered up.
This is a task in which each ^
one of us may help. There is
plenty of work for every mem- a
ber of every family in Lancas- ^
ter to do his share. In many ^
communities there is a "City (1
Beautiful" league but before n
working for a "city beautiful" ^
let us first strive for a city
clean, a city healthful, a city
sanitary. If proper considera- y
tion is given to civic work, in
i\n almost incredible time we
will hardly be able to recognize ,
the place in which we live. Let
>ach of us go to work Saturday, y
Begin that day, even if you have f,
to finish later. What one band
>f women has begun, others can '
likewise take up and with all !
hands at it, the task will be light
find the result will be a cleaner,; .\
better town.
VANDALISM AT GETTYSBURG.
Such an act of vandalism as
that perpetrated at Gettysburg v
last week is so shocking in its n
significance that the mind at
first refuses to give credence to ^
it. But the fact remains that i,
violence was done to a number j
of handsome monuments to the Y
nation's dead.
Of course a searching inves- *
tigation is being made and
every effort is being put forth I
to apprehend this ruthless de- _
spoiler of property. It is hoped
that these monuments can be
restored. They will not be allowed
to remain thus at any
rate, marred and pitiful appeals 1
to the irreverence and fury of f
some mind bent on fiendish mis- ;
chief. That this great battle-1<
field should have been selected ,
as the scene of such an act of j (
nexecraiion, inai monuments on
this hard fought field where the
flower of both armies was sac- (
Motliors Can Safely iluj
