why don't they keep the streets
q little cleaner
You ask with@deep annoyance not

little grerner?"
Did you ever stop 10 think that
THEY means Y0U2
One of our New Year resolutions
should be to keep Or streets cleaner
and every bit Of spare space green
and attractive. One citizen OF North
Anson without comment or assis-
tance from others has made his piece
of land that Was once an offence to
the eye, thing of beauty and pleas
ure. He has increased the habit
ableness Of the whole village. Can
we not follow his example, and in that
wear that fs soon to open IL we are
privileged TO walk these streets and
look upon freshly awakened pur-
pose to make our village cleaner and
sweeter and much more beautiful?
