MRS. FRANCIS W. STEPHENS. At a recent meeting of tbe civic committees of the Aftermath and Commercial club tbe following resolution was unanimously adopted: .

Atlanta Cleaning Day. In April and October the city of Atlanta, Ga celebrates "cleanlng-up" day, as an Institution for which a clever "and charming woman Is responsible. Atlanta was dirty, Atlanta was sick and crowded, and" the mayor wanted a lot of money to make it clean, sanitary and comfortable.

A coupon appeared In the newspapers signifying a promise on the part of the signer to have his own premises clean on October 26. These coupons were to be sent to the committee and the ward having the greatest number of responses was to win a prise of twenty-five dollars. It worked. All classes responded to the call with splendid enthusiasm. "Clean! ng-up" day became an institution and the improvement in sanitary conditions was instantaneous. There was established a thorough semi-annual scrubbing. Impressing the citlsens with the necessity of keeping streets and premises clean and wholesome. Atlanta with all its enterprise and vigorous growth was subject to conditions that so often accompany rapid development. There had been an epidemic of typhoid and over sixty cases of diphtheria. Mrs. White and her splendid band of women determined that their organization should become a permanent force for civic 1m-

provement. They made personal visIts In the districts most needing betterment. Besides the twenty-five dollars to the ward signing the most coupons, other premiums were offered for the most efficient work. A third prise for thoroughness was won by a band of negro women. This municipal house cleaning was of even greater importance than the immediate Improvement in sanitation, the five thousand earnest club women stimulated a progressive civic spirit. There's a place for "Cleaning-up" day In every city, town and village in the land, and there's no time like the present.
