respect

clean when sunset last FRIDAY
brought a strenuous day to a
close tor number Of weary
workers. -Blistcred hands and
aching backs were the general
rule on Saturday, but every ache
forgotten in the pride over a
whole city thoroughly and sys.
tematically cleaned. Alleys and
streets came in for large share
OF the work OF private citizens
who cheerfully contributed that
much to the general welfare.
Vacant lots were relieved of their
burden OF tin cans and other un.
slightly rubbish in order that the
property OF the nonresident
owners should not initiate aga
inst the results for the day. Twin
Falls could point out with pride
to the fact that not one citizen Of
its thousands left his property
unkempt at the close ut the An
nial Cleanup day. A great deal
OF credit should be given to the
civic committee and the CITY
street department for the organ.

work possible.
