This is the time of the year then, that Barrie should be looking its best. Upon each and every citizen a duty devolves. That is to stand by the town. To stand by the town does not necessitate the preaching. from pulpit or platform the beauties of the town,_ or its advantages, or its sup- eriority over- other places. But some can help it in one way, some in another. Some have property in a state of lack- ing improvement. If those who have property would spend time upon it to make, it look nicethey would be doing. acmethingffor the benet of the town. A clean, well-kept lawn, a pretty bed of owers, all adds to the beauties of the place. _ Perhaps some painting `is needed. Let it be dcneat once. Perhaps you have an old fence that detracts from the good appearance of your place in general. If it would look nicer down, why not take it down now? "The writer has observed more. then oneof these eye-sorea, and is sure much improvement could be made in this regard. In many places the grass" is long at the sides of the sidewalks. Many of our sidewalks are none too creditable, though fortunately granolithicia grad- ually extending, and in the last few weeks some of our worst pavements havebeen replaced with cement walks. But ' it cannot be expected that this summer will see many more such pave- ments laid. -Then if you have a plank iidewalk in front of your place that a nail or two would materially improve ` don't be afraid to use a hammer for a lhurt time, and keep the grass in re- 7 Ipeotable condition. V _v These are some ways in which the appearance ofthe town can be improv ed, and which we are glad to say is` being improved, and if it isoarried on the work will make a favorable im- pression upon - our summer visitors. The town can he kept better looking too, if people would refrain from throw- in; paper and other waste matter upon the street. ' c ` There is still` another way in _which the `average citizen frequently has a chance to do something for the town. That is in showing courtesy to strong- ere. Perhaps someone is here for s `city or two, at a hotel, and a stranger. A It in -conversstion with such a person -be free in giving information about jirriee, and show him as much so pos-T :`*vs'ib1e`jot the "town.
