APRIL, 2811. 1932 Let's Ail Take a Hand in Clean-Up and Paint-Up Week The Business Mens Association had done well to sponsor a Clean-Up, Paint-Up Campaign la Bow- manville. The campaign iS found to be invabuable ta any municipality undertaking it. f rom a civic pride point o! view, for liealth's sake and as a stim- ulant to employment. No town is WortliY o! its naine that bas not prude la ils lawns. its gardens. ils streets and its homes. and il lias been found lIaI an attractive town is a great drawing card to tour- ist.s and permanent residents. When cime reads o! the millions o! dollars spent annually by tourists la Canada cime cannot but hope that a fair aliare o! Ibis money stays la Bowmanviile. Clean, tree-lined streets. weil painted homes. green awns and flow- ers. will ever attract the tourist. while the don't care" appearance o! a town is bound to urge the tourist's foot to press a littbe liarder on the gasoline feed and eave the drab surroundings behind. Citizens are urged toi do their sliare la this carn- paign. Those wlio have the means should see tliat their premises are kept in repair and !reshby paint- ed. and their gardens -a thing o! beauty and a joy forever." Even those who have not tlie means to ether paint or plant may do their share by cleaning up their surroundings. eradicating the weed nuisance. and presenting at least an appearance o! pride o! ownership. Hold Joint Exhibition and Picnic At last week's meeting o! the Business Men's As- sociation two topics that were discussed may well be combined to make the most important event la 1932 la Bowmanviile. We refer to the Comrnunity Picnic whidli will probably be staged on a Wednes- day ai ternoon la July and the Made-ia-Bowmanville Exhibition. These combined events would make a worthwhile three-day occurrence whicli would not only be long remembered but which would. we be- lieve, accomplish the end o! encouraging people o! West Durham tic buy goods manufactured la Bow- manville. The Higli School Auditorium would make an ideal spot for the exhibition and the gymnasiumn would provide extra space if needed. The Exhibition could be formally opened by saine celebrity on the Monday and woud remnain open until Wednesday noon. when it would be climaxed by the Cominunity Picnic o! the afternoon. The tliree-day event would have a four! old pur- Pose. First. it would serve to create an latereat la Bowmanviiie-made products. Secondly. it would Provide an unusual opportunity for the residenta o! West Durhiam to view at cime time the products o! ail local faclorles la a convenient place. Thirdly. it would brlng to town la the three days hundreds o! fariners and other visitora which would in that way be a stimulus ta business, and lastly. il would resuit in the Comxrnunty Plcnic on the Wednesday afternoon creatlag an even greater spirit o!f friendi- ness and ca-operation between the rural and urban Population than that whldli was created ai the initial picnic last year. The Easiest Thing To Do la To Quit The easiest thing la the world 10 do is ta quit. And the liardest thing in île world ia ta carry a projet tlirough ta a conclusion-whether it ends la success or failure. Regardless o! tle project, tle hope. or ambition o! an individual or a group o! people. there are times, Or Periods, during the proceas o! accomplishnienî when the end seems too, far away to menit further effort. Wlen these peruods arrive, as tliey will do in anY endeavor. many hunians wil take the easiesî way. They quit. Cail it lack o! courage or wliaî you will. The fadt is stili there tliat when the going is a trifle bard, the easiest thing Ici do is ta quit. Il is easy to persuade yourself lIaI the ambition, or hope. or Project was, aller aU. flot as wortliwile as you firat thought. In matters O! civic importance and cominunity en- deavor it is easy 10 et the ciller !eilow do the work. It is easy ta stand idly by and applaud wlien some- thing worthwhile is accomplished and it is a mal- ter o! much satisfaction for people, when some pro- ject faits, ta say. "I knew it wouldn't work wlien they started." Il is particularby easy ta slide out o! a civic en- deavor wlien tle first entlusiasm las died down. It see if good tumes are coming back. Tlhey want ta see wliaîilie goverment is going ta do for lhem. They think the latter is Santa Claus. Let us aIl gel down ta real business and work.-Stratliroy Age- Dlapatch. Fads in Modernistic Art When huinans wish to ilustrate the foolishness of something tliey often refer to a flock o! slieep that follows the leader wheresoever lie goes. Apparently human beings, or at least some o! them. have little on sheep, for if there is a following for tlie modern- istir art and sculpture as depicted by word and on the screen by E. Wylie Grier. President of the Royal Canadian Academy. at the Rotary Club last Friday. then there are humans wlio are infinitely more fool- ish than the sheep who f ollows its leader. Shape- less and incongruous portraits were tbrown on tlie screen and even one witli the most vivid of imag- inations could flot possibly have f ound anything re- sembbing a portrait in the mass 0f ines and colora exhibited. One picture was supposed to be the por- trait o! a man. There was neither head nor should- ers. neck or body. just a conglomeration o! ines and smudges witli a pair o! clasped liands being the onby recognizable human eement. We do not exaggerate in making this statement. and we beieve that Mr. Grier was only teiling the truth wlien lie stated that there are many followers o! this new modernhstic lad. Imagine a man. or men, making colossal fortunes f rom dabbing paints over a canvas mucl inl the saine manner as a two year old child would use paints on a piece o! paper for the sake o! seelag just liow mucli o! a mess it could make. And worse stiil im- agine thousands o! people expressing adimiration for this new unintelligible lad which is marring the art o! the entire worbd. We gather that one was sup- Posed to use tlieir imagination la depicting the meaninga of the pictures but to us tliey were about as meaningless as a puddle in whicli lad been mix- ed some ten or fi! teen different colora o! paint wth a few tones and sticks thrown la for good measure. We imagine. too. that this puddle might prove more artistic than some o! these "valuable' paintings whidh are today adorning the picture gaUleries o! some of ithe more bizarre centres o! the artistic world. Start Now to Swat the Fly The warma weather o! the past few days and. in particular, over the weekend. brought out the flies wlio "wintered over"'. It is very important that these Mfes be killed now and not given a chance to breed. Below is a table sliowing liow f ast tliey do breed and what it means to allow tliem to go uncliecked: April 15 1 May 1 120 May 28 7.200 June 20 432,000 JulY 10 25,920,000 July 29 1,555,200,000 August 18 93,312.000.000 September 10 5.598.720,000.000 A female fly lays about 120 eggs at a time. She laya two. tliree or four batches o! eggs. In one day the eggs hatcli into littie whiite maggots. Ater five days each maggot goes into the pupa stage. Five days ater tle fly emerges f ull grown f rom the pupa. Fourteen days ater the femabe flues lay eggs and start other big famiies o! flues on the way. Swarms o!f Mes during July and August mean that war lias flot been waged on the wintered-over fly. This is 10w you can heip in the fîght against flues: 1. Start with that first fly. 2. Prevent breeding - dlean up. 3. Remove manure and fîth. 4. Sereen doora and windows. 5. Kill ail the winter flies. 6. Get an outdoor ffy trap. 7. Swat the fly - gas tle fly. 8. Keep garbage la a covered pail untîl it can be buried or burnt. 9. Keep everlastingly at it. 10. Insist upon your neiglibor doing likewise. Observations and Opinions Our local merchants constîtute one o! our biggest industries. They lielp support the communîty. We sliould in turn patronize tliem. The Durlani County lien that layed the egg f rom whîch was hatcled a three-legged clicken must have been working against *the depression. Not content iwîîli the Drice o! eggs it provided a cicken whose main attraction to thrifty alioppers was that it pos- sessed tîree 'dmmrsticks' înstead of the customary t wo. Humanized business and science mean progress. We cannot fight progreas, but we can make it an ally. Yesterday we said that only the fil test sur- vive. Today la business we are seeing a new prin- cîple born: To survive, serve.-Sydney W. Pascail. Englisli manufacturer. President o! Rotary Inter- national.
