The following from the GreenVille
News is worth reproducing here. Sub
stitute Newberry for GreenVille as
you read, and heed:
"On next Tuesday Greenville will
enter upon a cleaning campaign,
which if properly. conducted will re-
suit in much good to the city. And
by all means this "clean up" move
ment should be made effective.
Every citizen should do his or her
part, and in case there are delin-
quents, they should be forced to do
theirs. A thorough cleaning will be
the annihilation of thousands OF
flies and mosquitoes, because their
breeding places will be eliminated
All tin cans, garbage and other resi-
due should be removed. Cleanliness
in a city is a prerequisite for health
and attractiveness. Hence every man.
