Karl Kae Knecht Cartoon

Description: A suggestion that teachers talk to students about vandalism, cleanliness, and respect of property is written on a classroom wall and blackboard. A series of illustrations depicting the things children are not supposed to do. Four people stand on a sidewalk eating ice cream and throwing the wrappers on the ground. Drivers toss trash out of car windows. Children run through a victory garden. A boy and a dog run in a yard while another child picks a flower. A suggestion that parents also address these topics appears next to a man sitting at a table.

If today and on certain other days say--every teacher in every grade and high school would talk on vandalism, cleanliness, and respect of property. Do not throw paper or anything in streets, parks, on walks, yards, or alleys. Nor things from autos as so many adults do. Stay out of other peoples yards. Keep out of victory gardens. Keep off soft and growing lawns. Stay on the walks. And this and other eves a topic for parents.
