FJILAPIDATED buildings are bad for the
morale of those who live therein and for
that of the passerby.
We must not let buildings go to rack and
ruin because the country is at war. On the
contrary, the call is for economy and conser
vation through timely repairs.
What amounts to a little job to-day may
be a big one next Spring.
