ORLEANS COUNTY MONITOR, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 15,1914
ill Flies Before
They Swarm.Over
The Premises.
THE straight road to safety lies in
clearing out all the rubbish and
putting it in covered receptacles,
to be carted away by the proper au
thorities. It is of small use to "swat"
flies after they have got possession
Prevention is better than cure. To
avoid both mosquitoes and flies drain
off any stagnant water about the place.
Fill up the ground dents where mud
can collect in rainy weather. Remove
all old pans and pails, boxes and bas
kets from the back sheds or yard. Do
not allow the remnants of meals, peel
ings or vegetable offal to remain any
where near the door. It is necessary
not only to clean up the cellars, but to
see that the refuse turned out is art
ed away to the dump heap, to be burn
ed or otherwise destroyed at once, and
to shift every vestige of such heap that
Is within calling distance of home.
Let every citizen tackle his share of
this cleaning process and reflect that
in doing this work he is really consult
ing as well his own health and that of
his family as the comfort of his neigh
bors. There may be and are aesthetic
reasons for desiring a sightly city and
streets $ree from litter, and civic-pride
catering for a "city beautiful" is a
most laucfcxble aim. But in urging this
domestic cleanup the authorities sim
ply get down to the logic of hard facts,
and for this reason their appeal should
receive the co-operation of all the resi
dents interested in the health of the
municipality.

HERE IS AN EXAMPLE FOR
ALL CITIES. j
WHEN a city has attained
to such a standard of
cleanliness that it hasn't
enough flies to feed its pet
chameleons it has made long
strides toward the ideal of fly
lessness preached by modern
sanitarians. That was Cleve
land's case, according to an ar
ticle in the Survey describing
the anti-fly campaign which
had been waged in that city. A
man who has six of the curious
little reptiles has written the
fly fighting headquarters this
plaintive letter:
You have brought about a
famine in flies. My pets are
.starving. There are no flies to
be had about my house, and my
neighbors can't seem to help me
out. I'll pay, and pay well, for
every live fly your children can
bring me.

Easy Riming. !
William Makepeace Thackeray In his
lines "Peg of Limavady" acknowledges
himself a cockney. It was hardly nec
essary for him to do this, as not only
In that poem, but In others, he makes
the syllable "ing" rime with sylla
bles like "in" and "en," failing to sound
the concluding "g." Richard. Harris
Barham, of Ingoldsby Legends, a most
facile rimer, has done the same thing
over and over again, thus lightening
his labors greatly in the pursuit of
rimes.
