a business trip to Philadelphia on
Tuesday Every town, including
Clayton, can improve its appear
ance without spending much
money. One outstanding improve
ment, at no cost, would be to do
something about the constant lit
ter seen accumulating along Main
Street, from one end to the other.
With the starting of the tourist
season many out-of-state automo-
miles are seen using this route,
and street litter makes a poor ap-
pearance and gives the impression
of careless civic-minded residents.
The weakly wit: There's a local
lass on a diet so strict she can't
even swallow her pride.
