The
COMMISSIONERS COURT
BI ST THREE-DAY SESSION.
The Commissioners Court closed a
busy threc-day session yesterday af-
ternoon, all the Commissioners being
present during the entire time. Many
matters of importance came before
the court, In addition to the usual
. routine business.
A stock law election was ordered
for Precinct two, comprising the vot-
ing boxes of Holder. Gopher. Angel
and May, for May 24th, to determine
whether or not stock be allowed to
run at large. Such a law has long
been desired by many citizens of that
precinct, and will probably carry.
The court refunded to the Fire De-
partment of Brownwood the sum of
$12-06, which had been paid aa oc-
cupation taxes by tbs recent carni-
val,
A canvass was made of the return*
from the recent school trustee elec.
,tions over the county, and trustees
were named for <8 districts. In ad-
dition to these Messrs. Geo. Mcllan of
Jones Chapel and W. R. Chambers of
May were declared re-elected as coun-
ty trustees for the next term. The
other county trustees are Messrs. J.
B. Dunn of Brooksmith, Wllmot T.
Smith of Blanket and J. L. Cross or
Thrifty. These five, in connection
with the county superintendent, com-
pose the county school board.
A new road was authorized, for a
distance of three miles, running east
to the intersection with the Blanket
and Salt Creek road.
The court visited the county farm,
and found It in fairly good condition
Tauper accounts were allowed.
A visit was also made to the Hut-
son community, where an effort was
;made to adjust abroad controversy
between the citizens of that commun.
Ity and Owens. The controversy
arises from the establishment of a
new ru^l route to one of the com-
munities, while the other feels en-
titled to the route. The court was
unable to accomplish anything in
the way of a settlement, and the mat-
ter la held over until the next meet-
ing.
Brownwood Is certainly getting
thousands of dollars worth of splen-
did advertising out of her “Clean Town
Contest” feat. The Initial writeups at
the time the contest was in progress
and when this city won the prize
might have satisfied some less enter-
prising town, but not so Brownwood.
Hardly a day passes but that some of
the state papers have a news item
out of Brownwood referring to the
"S|>otless Town” and whenever sanita-
tion is mentioned in the Rtate predfc
Brownwood Is usually mentioned. The
result Is that Brownwood Is obtaining
more favorable notoriety than most
any town In Texas. 1
Last Monday Mayor Looney Issued
a clean-up proclamation setting aside
April 21st as clean-up day. E. E.
Kirkpatrick, the alert newspaper cor-
respondent Immediately placarded the
fact in the newspapers all over the
state In the following manner:
“Brownwood, April 16.—The fact
that Brownwood recently won the $500
cash prize for being the cleanest town
In Texas has caused citizens of many
other towns to visit Brownwood to get
j Ideas of civic sanitation. This fact Is
causing Brownwood people to renew
their effort* to keep the city spotlessly
clean.
“Mayor Looney has lssu«d a procla-
mation designating April 21 as clean-
up day and requesting that every cltl-
|scn, maleuml female, between the ages
of 4 and 9p years assist In a general
chanlng £f the town., The mayor asks
all business men to don their overalls
and help In the campaign."
The publicity did not end with the
1 Brownwood dispatch. Tho Fort Worth
Record of ^yesterday used it a* a
| topic for the dally sermon carried In
{the moat conspicuous place on the
front page. The Record h*d the fol-
lowing to say: i
“Story of k Spotless Toon
“Cleanliness Is said to he akin to
I godliness.
‘The plain English of this is that
isu unclean Individual is not noted for
j piety, nor a city notoriously dirty peo-
pled with men saturated with sanitary
I idealism.
“Summer Is coming.
“Swat the fly; remove the garbage;
|eliminate the filth; lift the debris from
the alleys and keep the streets clean
"This should he done for selfish as
well as sanitary reasous.
“A clean city charms the eye of the
visitor and never gives offense to his
nostrils.
"A cl an city carries with It a guar-
antee that the men entrusted with mu.
niclpal affairs are clean—which is
(,oo4y another name for progressive-
ness.
- “Sanitary science expelled the mias-
ma from the marshes of Panama, de-
stroyed the breeding places of death-
bearing mosquitos and pestilential
flies, exiled malarial fevers and de-
throned Yellow Jack, lor five centuries
the saffron-hued scourge of the Isth-
mus. All this was accomplished in a
plague spot and charnrt house of the
tropics.
“It is easy for an Individual to keep
clean. Water Is almost free and soap
Is dirt cheap.
“It is just ar easy for a city to he
kept clean If health officers and their
assistants are ever on the alert and re-
ceive the hearty and cordial co-opera-
tion of the people.
“Brownwood fras placed on the map
of the nation because it won the prize
for being the ’cleanest Tezaa town.’
Now Mayor Looney aspires to better
things On April 21. S&n Jacinto day,
he has requezted every citizen, male
and female, between the ages of 4 and
90 years to assist in the work of mak-
ing 'the cleanest Texas town’ spot4ess-
ly clean.
“Why not Fort Worth? Why not
every city and town under the blue
sky of Texas?
‘The clean individual it an optimist.
He carries a wreath of smiles on his
face. A clean people should be opti-
mistic and a clean city a fadeless
Joy.
“It Is better to patronise the bath
house than the boose house. It Is bet*
ter to deodorise than to putrsfy, -
"Strict sanitary enforcement places
money In the pockets of the ptopls;
It keeps money In th* pockets of the
taxpayer; it may cut down the profits
of undertakers and tombstone msnu-
tion and who are obsessed with the
Idea that cleanliness Is akin to godli-
ness. •
“May their tribe increase and their
labors in behalf of health; home and
happiness be rewarded now and here-
after.”
