This Week Is CIeon-Up Week

1t seems that every week has some
special observance and there aren't even
enough weeks in the year to go around.
This week is being especially observed
as "Clean-Up Week" in Durant by a procla-
nation of Mayor w. h. Howell. 1t is spon-
sored by the Woman's Club. =
Every week, however, should be clean
up week here if we want to keep our town
as attractive as it should be. Cleaning up
isn't a matter of one week in the year. 1t IS
a 52-weeks a year proposition. That es-
pecially goes for business houses which, 1t
seems to us, nave become increasingly lax
in these matters during the past year.
One concern now undergoing remodel
ing here this week found a sign behind
some fixtures which had been pasted up
for twelve years. The motto carried on it IS
still true today. Let's read and observe.
"Clean Up! Paint Up!
Clean Up your yard
Clean up your premises
This is a National Movement
Durant
Must keep in line.
Nature Has done her part,
So let's do ours.
THIS MEANS EVERYBODY"
