MAKE BEAUTY YOUR

(Carteret County News-Times)
When we get in our car to "just
ride around" why do we do it? We
do it to see what we can see that
is interesting and beautiful-what
other people are doing and how
they are living.
We can tell what kind of people
they are by the condition of their
houses and lawns and the grass
plots in front Of homes-these are
our trademarks and by them we
are judged.
To keep clean is not such hard
job. We can wear patched dunga-
ress but if they are clean that is
all that is expected. And that goes
for our homes.
They may be old but paint job
will do wonders for them. If we
can't afford paint, whitewash is
very good. If the lawn is clean of
weeds and rubbish the appearance
OF the house will be greatly I'M
proved.
Don't neglect the grass plot. The
street department has many other
things to attend to. When our prop
erty is properly attended, it in
creases in value and visitors are
impressed with the cleanliness and
will come to visit again and again.
This is a good advertisement for
any town.
We should be more interested in
our homes than new model car
sitting out front that looks SO out
of place.
Cleanliness is profitable in many
ways. It adds to the value Of our
property. 1t creates a sense Of
pride. Industry will not overlook
a clean town. Cleanliness is essen
tial from a health standpoint.
Let's help the great forces Of ma
ture beautify our towns. And re-
