CLEAN UP AND PAINT UP. To Remove "For Rent" Signs. i:y T. TOUEY. Preside'! 1 to:? I Estate Bureau. I, it t K- iiack. Ark. It is not surprising- 1 luit houses which nrc for rent should be without tenants, because in most cases suc-li I id uses are unpainted, the steps are rickety and the porches not in. repair. The number of vacant houses in any city is largely due to the negligence of t lie landlord him self. I recently took two Indies out, trying to tind for theiu a de sirable six or seven room h?w*c to rent. I was unable to find anything to suit ttym, either on my own list or on the lists of Other real estate firms, and these ladies were not exacting, in -their wants. They were shown a few houses of the desired si ae. but the heuses were not in good condition. It is true that some of the landlords say they are willing. to make certain re pail's for a good tenant, but it has been my experience after years in the business, that it is best to put your house in attrac tive shape firs* and you will quickly get a tenftUw. Houses that are. kept re paired and painted not only rent better, but they greatly improve the looks of the city. THERE'S WORK FDR ALL IN THIS CAMPAIGN CLEAN UP AND PAINT UP. Womin Can Take a Leading Part In This Movement For Beautiful, Sani tary and Safe Home Town*. By LOUISE KEHPER, Chairman Civic Committee, Olilb Federation of Women's Clubs. "Women aro housekeepers. They are apt to see more cieariy t Lie need of municipal houseeleajing than are men. Through our clubs we hnve an excel lent opportunity to lead in "Clean Up and Paint Up" work. Here arc some pointers for women who would help regenerate their community with a real "Clean Up and Taint Up" cam paign: Each campaign involves the renova tion of the interiors of bulldiugs as well as yards, streets and alleys. . Tho removal of all rubbish and ?o less things is most Important. Borne revenue can be derived from the sale of waste paper, During the "Clean Up ami Paint Up* campaign is a good time to have rub blsh cans placed upon street corners, for the deposit of papetv? ? Nothing will do more to improve tht appearance of a town than the lll>eral use of paint. Useless and unsightly outbuildings should be torn down. . . Business houses need attention. Rub blsh accumulates In cellars, under stairways, In storerooms, passageways, and In the rear of hotels And restau rants. Look out for RATS here. ? clean yard Is not sufficient; It should be pleasing to the eye. Plant grass and flower seeds. Sod bare spots In lawns. Plant shrubs, vines and trees. The thresholds of a town should be made inviting to the visitor. This la a good time to And out about the sanitary ordinances of the town. How about ?he regulations in regard to garbage collection, the use of closed garbage cans, manure plies, spitting, tofleU? ate.? Are they adequate? Ar? they enforced? Appoint a committee published and 'distributed widely. U H fWjr Important that t^e "Cleau ~IJ^ -fralat Up" idea be impressed upon the inlnd* of school children. 7?: > 'vL. ?
