SCOUTS WILL COLLECT WASTE
PAPER ON MONDAY AFTERNOON
Formers And Rdnchers
Also Urged To Save
Wustepuper

Arrangements have been made
by the Hardin Boy Scouts and
their directors to collect bundles
Of wastepaper in Hardin, it was
announced following a scout
meeting Monday.
The first collection will be
made Monday afternoon, Jan.
26, at 4 pm, and local people
are urged to have their bundles
ready to be picked up.
The local scout troop will e
ceive IS per ton for the waste
paper from the Billings Saliva
ton Army. The Salvation Army
was recently designated by the
government to handle the pro-
ject in Montana.
Definite notices as to when
collections will be made will be
published each week, it was sta
ted.
Under the present system of
holding school on Saturday the
scouts have only a limited time
for collections and the public
is urged to cooperate by COM
plying with the following rules.
l.. Newspapers, sale bills, adj
vertising sheets and all paper
known as newsprint should be
bound securely in a bundle ap-
proximately one foot high.
2. Magazines printed on glazed
or book paper should be bound
in a separate bundle.
3. Cardboard boxes and paper
cartons should be cut at the
corners and folded flat and tied
securely into bundles.
4. Wrapping paper and paper
bags and like material should
be bound separately in easy to
handle bundles.
S. Bundles should be placed
on the front porch or in front
of each residence or building on
the days of collection to aid in
the pickup by the trucks which
will cover each street.
g.. All other paper commonly
known as SCRAPS cannot be col
lected at this time as it must
be bailed and no facilities for
bailing are available at this
time.
It is believed that with the
cooperation of the public that
the Hardin scouts will be able
to raise enough money to carry
out several projects anticipated
by the troop.
Farmers and ranchers who
wish to aid in the saving of
wastepaper can do so by bring
ing their bundles, tied according
to the above rules, into Hardin
and deposit them at the vacant
building adjoining the Becker
hotel. The front door of this
