Sort of a lady muck-Raker, eh?
"Shorty McCabe"
Sewell Ford
There are some self-conscious artists who would say that the cause of humanity and progress is not the concern of the artist at all; but, on the other hand, you will find but few of the great artists of the ages who have not been thrilled and haunted with the deep desire to help others, to increase their peace and joy, to interpret the riddle of the world, to give a motive for living a fuller life than the life of the drudge and the Raker of stones and dirt.
"The Silent Isle"
Arthur Christopher Benson
So there was a return to the former system of requiring citizens to sweep and clean the streets in front of their buildings twice a week and keep the filth until a scavenger or Raker came.
