THE BOERS AND ENGLAND.
A Boer Banker TeHs Why They Are
* ; Lending Aid.
In this article., "Germany's Exit
from Africa," in the World's Work
s for October, Lewis R. Freeman tells
|;v of an interview with a successful
E ; Boer banker, who, speaking of their
Hk last war with England and its re^Wm
suits, says: "There is still an ache
f in some of our hearts for things the
war cost us. But the sense of justice
is highly developed in the Boer,
1 and we cannot deny that under the
1 fair, square, helpful regime of the
* British we have become better off in
ten years than we would have been
fcJ in fifty under Paul Kruger. They
have left us our language, self-govarampnt?pvprvthinsr.
in fact, we had

before?and have brought us progjtessiveness
and prosperity. A new

What Can be Done to Make
Bamberg a City Beautiful?
li
1st Prize.
For a town of its size, Bamberg,
has many pretty residences, although
there are many things necessary to
make it a beautiful city. *
The switch track of the railroad \
is in a very anoying place, also the t
stock pen. These could be moved to
other parts of the town. On the
sides of the railroad are tall rank
' I
weeds. ii tnese were icyiatcu uj i
pretty green grass, and the ground 1
| terraced it would cbe a much more! I
pleasant spectacle for the people to
look upon. Strangers coming to our
town would wonder at its cleanliness
and beauty. There are only a few j
trees'planted along the streets and
these are not well kept. Trees should
be planted and kept trimmed. They i
are very attractive when white-wash- J
ed up a certain distance. In the city j
there are many places^suitable for a I
I park. If these were fixed up, and!
small grass plots planted around the
j city it would make a great difference.
! Our streets, which are dust beds in
dry weather, and mud holes in wet, j
should be either bricked or fixed with i
asphalt. There are very few of the!
sidewalks that are paved, and these:
very poorly. If, at least, the side-j
walks in the main part of the city, |
were paved, and the others clayed j
pur city would be so much more at-!
tractive. In and around the city we!
have many open ditches. These breed i
mosquitoes and' cause disease. Ifj
these were either bricked over or j
| filled up we would no longer fear disI
ease and mosquitoes from them,
j As I said before, Bamberg has j
L ? ~ Wa-.OV/\U1(1 cat I
x IllUIiy prtsilj' XIUUlCO. ?? C oauuiu ftuv
our people so interested in our town
that they would be willing to do anything
to help make it more beautiful.
If this were the case, people would
keep their yards neater. In case you
have grass it should be neatly cut.
And if your yard is inclosed by a
fence, keep it painted, if by a hedge,
kSeplit tHmmed. Some people arei
not cleanly in their homes. If they
were told about it in* the right way,
they would tajse a certain pride in
tjieir homes.
Now let us take up our public
buildings. . .If the court-house'yard
were kept neater, and perhaps a
small drinking fountain placed on
the lawn, people passing through on
the train wpuld remark about, the
beauty. Our^chool-hoise itself needs :
attention. The yard surely is not a
place of beauty. Grass could be;
'Planted and the basket ball court;
kept up better. Around our churches
there is much room for improvement.
I \fain ctroof shoD-keeDers
VU ' w?? V?^ W4- ? should
take pride in their show win-|
dows. They should be so beautiful
and attractive that no one could pass *
by without looking in. All along the
streets you may see trash scattered.
This could be prevented by placing
baskets or cans at the corners to receive
the refuse and compelling people
not to throw trash on the 6treet.
Everybody coming through here notices
the horrid old billboards that
are stuck up all over the town. This
should, be forbidden by the authorities
of the town. Also, Bamberg
shoi/ld have water-works. This would
help the town so much. As you
know, cleanliness is beauty, so each
individual should feel the responsibility
of his or her part. If this were
the case Bamberg could indeed become
a city beautiful, otherwise it
will forever remain the same filthy
little town. I have mentioned many
things which would help to make L
Bamberg beautiful but there are ?
many that I will not mention. Very ch
necessarily these improvements witl cli
need money but I should think that
the citizens would be glad to help ar
the toyn. I hope that the people ke
will become interested and make 01
Bamberg a City Beautiful. to
