MOP AND DUSTER

T LECTURER Speaker on Art Gives Way to Determined Intruder with "Better Subject." Chicago, March 111. Flourishing a mop and a feather duster, Mrs. F. B. ; Davidson, of the Women's City club, J made the members of the West l'nd , Mothers' association gasp with aston ishment Thursday. The women had gathered in the (John Marshall Echool for the monthly ! meeting of the club to listen to psyjchologieal discourse on the relation j of paintings, poetry and music by George W. Kggers of the state normal school. They were first compelled to listen to an unannounced lecture on sanitation of public buildings by Mrs. Davidson. "Stand up, ladies," she said, entering the room as meeting was about to be called to order. "I want to show you the dirty condition of the (hairs on which you are sitting and which your children use day after day." With a wave of her dust rags and brush she walked from chair to chair wielding her implements vigorously. By the time the furniture had been treated, the women were sufficiently recovered to listen to Mrs. Davidson while she discussed proper methods of school ventilation. Finding a ventj ilator flue unsatisfactory, she took a j number of the members of the club with her to the principal's office while j she registered a complaint with Mrs. KUa Flagg Young by telephone. Mrs. i Young promised that the matter j would be referred to the proper comj init tee. I "I am devoting all my time to the Inspection of public buildings, especially school buildings." announced Mrs. Davidson. "Art lectures are well enough, but the proper sanitation of the buildings which your children stay in for hours every day is more imjiorItant. You may listen to Mr. Eggers jwhen I am through, but. I am going to ; show you that the building in which you are meeting today is unfit for j school purposes." j A few members of the club were j indignant at what they termed the inItnision of Mrs. Davidson. Others .treated the matter as a comedy and 'warned late comers against taking taking seats in the room, telling them the dust would spoil their finery, j After Mrs. Davidson had finished jher discourse. M: Kggers gave his lec ture, using stereopticon views and a phonograph to show the relation between works of the painter's art and classic music. Merely an Accessory.

Spokane Will be Given Very Thorough Cleaning in April

rpallaxliuni Pjx-vial) Sjwkane, Wash.. March ill. One of the most unique ami wholesome spectacles ever witnes-ed on this continent will be the cleaning ,.:;, special arbor day celebration in Spokane the latter part of April, when the cit ornj mission i s will cooperai" with t ie residents in an effort to make Spokane a "spotless town."' Mayor William J. Hitidley will proclaim a public holiday to start the campaign, after which the City Beautiful committee of the Chamber of Commerce and allied orsanitations will take charge, j "Our arrangements are not yet complered." Mayor llindley said, "but I j believe we can bring out from 45.noo to .".!.' Oto men and women, including (railroad and bank presidents, luanuIfacttirers. wholesale and retail dealj ers and society matrons, on the openi ing day to assist in beautifying the I residence districts. The city crerna- ! tory department will take care of the business streets and alleys and special j detachments of firemen will be on hand to avert fires. The refuse will be destroyed under their direction." Aubrey lee White, president of the Spokane park commission, is the originator ef the municipal cleaning day plan, first worked out in this citv j early in the spring of lfmr, through ithe City Beautiful committee of tlic I 1. ".o.OOO club, now headed by C. Her- ! bert Moors, formerly mayor of the city. It has become an annual institution in Spokane and has been taken up by other cities in the I'nited States and the Dominion of Canada. Twenty thousand men, women and school children participated in the first annual cleaning day. five years ago. The army of volunteer workers, composed of people from all walks of life, was' under tlie direction of City Engineer Henry J. Lilienthal. who was marshal of the day. The men and boys were armed with shovels, pduning implements and rakes, while the women and girls assisted in planting trees and shrubs and other seeds. They worked from eaily morning until the sun passed from view beliind the Western hills and the results were highly satisfactory. Five hundred teams were provided by the 1.V).ih0 club, mill owners, business houses find residents generally to haul the garbage to the municipal incinerating plants, and special firemen were stationed in various parts cf the city and outskirts to supervise the destruction of refuse by bonfires. Business was suspended timing the hours the people were engaged in cleaning the city. The t.'iO.iMM) club turned out its entime membership of "."00 in command of Bcii H. Rice, then secretary of the organization and The Me-Mow E-Nak-Ops, the woman's auxiliary, headed by Mrs. F. F. Sniery, assisted the school girls with the planting of shrubs ami flowering vines and seeding pints of ground. Ten thousanfl packets of flower seeds were used.

city presented the apparanc of a new pin. Beautification and artistic improvements were noticeable in all parts of the city and it was generally conceded that the first cleaning day campaign was one of the most s uv ?:,;. semi-civic movements carried to a successful conclusion in Spokane and the Northwest. Then and t.iere it decided to devote one day each ..'. to this work Afterward the campaign was extended to cover six day.-, closing with an arbor day celelct tiou the last afternoon of the week. Another movement in connection with the cleaning day plan was t'.ie organization of t'.ie Spokane Tree Planting association with IO.Oimi active members among the children above the third grade in the public schools. Pupils promising to plant imp or more trees or shrubs a year are eligible to free memberships. The certificates presented to tb children contain full instructions in taking up ami transplanting trees and shrubs, also hints on caring for the plants. To defray the expense of the organization special membership cards wore sold to adults at $1 each. The City Beautiful committee is declared to be one of the best organized bodies in America. In addition to the chairman and permanent secretary, there is a vice chairman in each ward, a captain in each precinct and a lieutenant in every block within the incorporated city limits. There also is a joint committee of '20 business men. making up a sub-committee on clean ing day, public buildings, parks, driveways and alleys, streets, bridges and tree planting. The joint committee meets twice a week, when plans are submitted for discussion, and upon adoption the work is carried out through the captains in the various wa rds. The older 1oys in colleges and high schools are organized to assist the officers of the association in reporting districts or lots that require attention. The captains and lieutenants of the companies of boys make tours of every block in their neighborhoods, to oversee the work. They are supplied with .blanks to make reports on the lo
