town, Was Principal Speaker.
The Civitan Club of Cumberland,
sponsored by the Hagerstown club,
received its Charter on Saturday at
the Cumberland Country Club.
The principal speaker at the
Charter Night dinner was A. M.
Dixon, of Hagerstown, who recently
returned from trip to Europe
Civilian international president,
Ernest Moore, of Toronto, Canada
was present, together with Thomas
w Campbell, governor of the Ches-
apeake District; Isaac Goad, past
district governor; E. Lee Keesling,
extension chairman of the Chesa-
peake district; J. Louis Boublitz,
president of the Civilian Club of Ha-
gerstown and other officers and
members of the Chesapeake District,
which includes the Civitan Clubs of
Hagerstown, Frederick, Westminster
and Annapolis, Md, and Chambers
burg, Pa.
The new Cumberland Club is the
twentieth club in the Chesapeake
District and is one of over six humid
red Civilian Clubs over the United
States and in neighboring countries,
all of which are devoted to Building
Good Citizenship.
Through the years since the first
World War, Civilian International
has endeavored to give new meaning
to citizenship - to develop in the
hearts and minds of men the reali-
zationzation that citizenship not only
involves certain rights and privileges
but even more important that good
citizenship carries with its obliga-
tions and duties.
Civilian Clubs have complete free
dom in selecting their projects ac-
cording to local needs, but all are
committed to an "Action Program of
Citizenship Building" which includes
four general types of activities -
(D within the club, (2) with the
adult population of the community,
(3) among unfortunates and those
needing assimilation into the com
munity, and ca with youth.
The detectives of Civilian are: (D
Building of Good Citizenship and
the Promotion of International Good
Will, (2) Loyal Support of Our Gov
ernments in War and in Peace, (3)
Elimination of Communicable Dis
eases and Improvement of the Public
Health, (4) Greater Public Safety
and (5) CURLING of Crime.
Approximately thirty business and
professional men are charter mem
bers of the new club.

Cleanup Week"
Week Extended to
End Of Month

Cleanup Week, which Off
cially closed on Saturday has
been extended until the end
of this month on orders of DR..
D. C. Canegata, Administra-
tor for ST. Croix.
This action was taken be-
cause Of a possible misunder-
standing all around. The pro-
clamation coming out when
the week SO designated was
at its end; the Street cleaning
crew was not reinforced with
additional men and, apparent
", were not given specific in
struetions to remove all re-
fuse or junk that otherwise
they would not touch. Thus
many streets were in bad con-
dition at the end of last week
until this morning when the
Street cleaning gang received
special orders.

The Administrator states
that property owners may
clean up and place all junk
where they will be picked up.
