A cleanup day has been suggested
for our community and it is timely.
Most of the pruning is done and the
brush is being gathered to burn. Why
not dispose of the winter accumulation
of rubbish in the yards in like manner
; sometime before the blossoms begin to
open. Our board of education has spent
about one thousand dollars in beauhfv
ing the school grounds. The invest
ment is good. The influence of this
8 broad, clean lawn with it's cumps of
e shrubbery so well arranged, will enter
into the characters of our children and
they will fill niche higher up IN the
world because of it. The church lawn
is also In good condition. These public
y institutions have set the standard-oul
homes should meet them. Since we
- have no municipal officers, perhaps a
u ladies club OF some other organization
will take up the matter and suggest a
d day. Then We'll all get in line anC
clean up to the tune of Everybody 5
Doing it. -
