WANT STREETS CLEANED

Residents of Camp Hill are COM
planning about the uncleanly condi-
tions of the streets in the borough.
and it is probable that within the
near future the matter will be taken
before council.
A few years ago the Civic Club of
Camp Hill purchased number of
waste paper boxes, which were placed
n various places about the town. One
Of them, at present, is now hidden be-
hind some shrubbery, and is empty.
Others along the streets are as clean
as the day they were placed and the
paper Is strewn over the town. Along
Market street all along the curbs are
pieces OF paper and other rubbish
which gives the thoroughfare a very
unsightly appearance.
Council may be asked to instruct the
highway commissioner to gather up
the rubbish and destroy it. The high
way commissioner is only paid for the
time he puts in on q job when he is
instructed to work by council 1t is
stated that it would not take more
than two days to clean the streets.
