We should clean Richmond so

we can have good health ourselves and help other people to keep good health. People should not throw loose paper around. If the school children throw paper around going to and from school, some people can tell when they're nearing a school house hy the papers around, sometimes if they are about a square or so away. We do not want pople to know when they're nearing our school by the papers because "Star" means bright and we want to shine in everything more than any other school. Even the smallest child can be taught to help. We should keep our rubbish and garbage in separate cans. For if we put our rubbish and garbage together the flies and germs can tell where the garbage is. The lid should be :.ept down all the time to avoid getting pneumonia, typhoid fever and other diseases I think the people of the Kiwanis club are thoughtful people to think of other persons' health. If we .have a clean city people will have better health and our city will be a cban. beautiful city like everyone wants it to be. We should want our city to be belter than any other out.

A FINE PLAN I think it is a line plan to have a "Clean Cp Week." And a fine thing for ill" Kiwanis club to do. The reason I like it is because it makes the citizens of Richmond more hea'thy. It makes our city and people like lo live here. It also shows that the members of the Kiwanis club are citizens. A greal many people are taking heed to it. Most people are cleaning ing up their lawns, backyards, alleys, and shoveling snow and such odd jobs. The development of our city depends upon its cleanliness. If it is dirty nobody will want to live here: people will not want lo come here to work, and that will not increase our population. We have a. yard committee here at school that goes around and picks up paper, etc. I have noticed that people who formerly had dirty yards are cleaning up now. I hope Clean l'p Week will be a success. GEORGE HARRIS, 5-A, Starr Platoon. Answer to riddle No. 1: I'd advise young ladies to leave husbands alone and get a single man. FIRST FLOOR BAXTER HAS SPECIAL PROGRAM The first three grades of Baxter school had their Thanksgiving program together last Wednesday morning.

We should be clean because if we were not. we might get typhoid fever. We must not let our house gel untidy. You must keep your front and backyard clean. Vou must have a garbage can and a rubbish can. You must have them tied to a post or fence so that no one can take or that no dog can upset it. We must help the Kiwanis club. You should clean up your woodshed so that you will not get germs. Clean i p your alleys. Be careful about your garbage cans. SARA Rl'SSELL, 3 A. Starr Platoon. J. H. S. BUSY PLACE The Junior High School is having so much outside work that there is barely time enough for lesions. Clean-Up Week. Armistice Day and Thanksgiving are the latest principal reasons. C. NT.

"The Beech Wood," a large canvas, painted by Mr. Bundy, and the property of Starr School, is receiving a tremendous vote as the favorite of the junior visitors to the Richmond Artists' exhibit which is hanging now in the local Art Gallery. Another popular pieture is that of Stanley Hayes, Jr., which was painted by Maude Kaufman Eggemeyer, and a third that is very well liked is another painting by Mr. Bundy, called "Woods in October." Much discussion has taken place among the juniors as to just which woods this is. Where do you think it was painted? Miss Williams, art supervisor, and Miss Mawhood meet the juniors as they come to visit the exhibit and tell them about the pictures, and answer any questions the boys and girls may ask. When asked why paintings were more beautiful than photographs of the same subject, many decided it was because an artist could see and paint in, colors that a photographer could not possibly portray, and then it is more interesting to see something beautiful as an artist sees it, because being an artist he will probably see more beauty in the subject than one who photographs it. The boys and girls are learning now, how to tell two pictures painted by the same artist by observing the technique, the color, the subject, the way the paint is put on and other points about painting of Ihe picture. They have shown the ability to do this rather well. By Saturday evening, December 4, unless rainy weather interferes between the time this story goes to press and that time, all the boys and girls of the fifth, sixth and seventh grades, those of the eighth grade who are taking the art work, nnd the members of the High School art classes will have visited Ihe exhibit.

MAIN STREET BRIDGE IN MINIATURE In Baxter kindergarten the children are making a model of the Main street bridge, and what is most unusual they have made the most of the bridge of real cement which they mixed themselves. A wooden scaffolding was built when the foundation and the arches were in the process of being built. That has been torn down now and the lighting sysiem and street car tracks are now being planned. After the bridge is completed the little builders will build and plan the approaches, perhaps putting in some of the plants that are located near the bridge.
