| dc.description.abstract | This now national popular movement was initiated by the late Booker T. Washington at Tuskegee Institute some thirty-odd years ago. In this connection we are reminded of the topic "Despise Not the Day of Small Beginnings." At first it was annual clean-up week under the direction of Dr. Washington. The Tuskegee Institute School and the surrounding community were called upon at the beginning of spring to clean up their premises and in every way possible within their resources to improve their homes and surroundings. Meetings were held, health talks were given, and sermons on health were preached not only on the school's premises but these were extended into surrounding communities. | |
