 CLEANUP WEEK

Mayor J. c. Dawson stated today that many citizens of Conway are responding to the cleanup and paint up week campaign and some effective work is being done. Hundreds of children have been enlisted in the movement and by performing four hours work in the cleanup campaign they receive a card entitling them to an interesting puzzle device given away by Conway merchants. The junk wagons will be started Thurs day, Mayor Dawson stated, and every one is requested to have all rubbish to be hauled off put in sacks and set out on the curb so that 1t can be easily loaded into the wagons.
 Three columns of interesting mat ter relative to the cleanup campaign appear on the third page of today's Log Cabin Democrat and should be read by everyone. Another install ment will be published tomorrow.

Craig, treasurer; G. E.. Owen, J. E. Little, F. s. II. Johnston, J. c. Dawson, J. P. Womack, w. F. Thomasson, V. G. Craig, T. R. Doug lass and Wiley Mosley, executive committee.
 Dr. G. D. Huddleston spoke on sani- Itation. He urged that the water in the swiming pool be changed oftener, and that the boys be limited as to the time they be permitted to stay in the water.
 Following this talk an hour or more was spent in animated discussion as to ways and means of promoting the interests of the Scouts. There was some difference of opinion as to the best course to pursue in the matter of entertainment, but this was just enough to bring out clearly the fact that the fathers present were in sym pathy with the movement.
