Civic Beauty. In a number of cities sonme tine results have followed a persistent campaign by civic beauty clubs, in the way of implrovement in the _ looks of the streets and yards. In stead of unsightly sidewalks and premises there are now pretty lawns and well kept sidewalks with flowers here and there adding toui'ches of color to the brilliant and inviting green. And the back yards were not overlooked -they received atten tion and were planted to fruit trees, roses. vines and grass until it is doubtful which is the most attractive, the front or back. It was some work to accomplish this. Accounts says that it was several years before the full coop eration of the householders could be secured and that prizes and and other inducements were neces sary at first to arouse interest. But results were finally reached and now, it is said. the pride the peo ple take in their homes and the beauty of their city is sufficien to keep up the high standard reached. The example set by these cities has inspired similar improvements in other cities and now civic beau ty is receiving a great deal of at tention throughout the land. E,'eni where there is no organized move to promote it. there are many indi viduals who are setting examples wihich, are influencing their neigh bors to do likewise. and as a result there are spots in all towns, big and little, where pretty lawns and well kept yards blossom, as it wer.e, out of their environmuents and draw admiring attention. - Ex.
