CIVIC IMP.SOVEMENI...--_
That the movement for civic im-
provement-1
m-provement-1 ,r is. the beautifying of
towns and t u tee - is staking sub-
stantial prop: .• el in Ontario ]r the
statement of one who should know
something sbol�t it -Professor H. L.
lints, of the t)ntlrio Agricultncdl Col -
lege al (luelph, who has made a eprc-
ial study of the subject. The move -
mete,' says Professor Hutt, is the out-
come of a growing appreciation of art
and a desire for real beauty, which
has resulted from the prosperity tit
the times and the tendency to trio eel.
1b origin might, no doubt, be traced
to 'Europe, where many of the town.
and cities have become centres of at-
traction for American tourists. From
the old land we have learned much
and have still much to learn. Travel-
lers always .peek with delight of t1..-
archit•ctural and Iandncape twenties
of Paris, Brussels, Vienna sod Edin-
burgh, and now that the pioneers
have cleared the way in Ontario their
descendants are in a position to give a
greater degree of attention to the im-
provement of the land which within
the last century has been converted
from the wilderness.
As instances of what hen a1Ffiidy
been done in Ordaiio Professor Hutt
mentions the general use of cement in
the making of pavements and side-
walks ; the removal of atreeL fences ;
the grading of lawns and boulevards
and the attention giyen to keeping
the grass nicely cut ; the planting of
trees in the streets, and, in some
cases, the establinbment of parks and
the creation of park boards and coin -
missions.
10 some places local organized ions -
such a. the Horticultural Society in
Goderich-have taken an interest in
this improvement work, and Pro-
fessor Hutt suggests the following as
some of the avenues through which
such local aocietiee might work to
good advantage in promoting im-
provement
(11 By conducting an educative cam-
paign in awakening public interest to
. , appreciation of the value of neat-
ness, order and beautiful surround-
ings.
(11 By enlisting the support of the
rising generation hy flower competi-
tions, and also by making school as
well as home surroundings as beauti-
ful as possible. Young people brought
up amid beautiful surroundings may
1e counted on in later years to work
for rural and civic Improvement,
wherever they may he placed. i ail
looking forward to an early awake,;-
ing of school boards to the importance
of improving 'wheel grounds.
131 Hy seeking the ro-operation of
other influential local organizations.
such as the town council. Board of
Trade. or school board. which may be
willing to assist in making local im
provernents. In nntmr is strength.
(41 By working ter the appoint-
ment of progressive local park beer dw-
or commission., and urging such
board. to get possession of suitably
Ianra for park purposes while they
are heap. Plane can then be adapted'
for their gradual development end
improvement. The Ontario parks act
provides that one-half mill on the es -
easement may be used by any park
board so appointed for much purposes.
And whenever such money is judi-
ciously expended the increased value
of adjacent lands will soon pay l good
share of the cost of such implove-
menta-ln- increased revenue from
faxen.

to contribute his share to the general
improvement of the place by making
his own Int es attractive as possible.
111 every citizen did his shale. whata
change would take place in the a .-
pesrance of our country ! 'foist%tis
from all over the world %vewld come
to see Beautiful Ontario.
There are a few t.hings mem which
Professor Hutt suggests it would tw
declinable to have e0111P legislation in
this reentry. such as the tenoning :
Legislation 1.1 control the 1,111h atil
nuisance arid advertising lnonstresi•
ties whir disfigure

prohibit the butchery of street and
roadside trees by telephone end tele-

limits ; to prevent dogs turning at
Large within town or city limits.
There is no place in Ontario tint
should maintain a greater inter•eot in
this matter of civic improvement then
should .Ise town of Goderich. Nature
has given our town a rare beauty of
shoat -ion, and with a definite plan of
street and park improvement it work
could he done here which in the Yeats
to come would make Goderich more
truly than ever the prettiest town in
Ontario.
Now is the time for the parks cons

or daily reports that are old when you

that much several times a year ?
