Friday night at eight o'clock every
resident and especially every property
owner in Langdon is asked to be in
attendance at a meeting called by the
Civic improvement League to be held
at the office of DR.. j.. j.. Mugan. The
question under discussion of course will
be the cleaning up and identifying of
Langdon. The work of the league ir
years past has been such that. Langdon
has a reputation of being one of the
clean and sanitary towns along the line
and it is therefore up to our citizens to
see that this spring we live up to our
reputation. Both householders and bust
ness men alike are urged to take a hold
now when civic league workers are
starting the ball a rolling to improve
the general appearance of the whole
town. There is not alone the question
of n~eatness and o~rnamentation that
ccmmeds the movement as a good one,
but that of sanitation.
