Soring always finds a town with more or less refuse accumulated on the streets and alleys and In the yards. This refuse matter is always an eyesore to the general public ana especially to visitors, on whom we are continually " trying to make a good Impression of our little city with the Idea of getting new people suffl clently Interested to make this their home. It is suggested by some one who has seen the great benefit derived, that a certain day in the near future be designated as cleanup day all over the city. On this day every one gets busy In and around his own yard or business place, cleaning up the yard, straightening up the wood pile, re pairing the walks, placing the refuse In barrels or boxes which are placed at the rear of the residences or bus iness houses where they can easily be reached by wagons, furnished by the city council. These wagons then remove the rubbish collected, to some dump, with no expense to the lndl vldual other than a little time and rosslbly a few blisters. It Is surprising what an Improve ment a day of this kind will make In a city, not only In looks but In a ean Hary way as well. Let some organization of men . or la'llcs tVe ti3 ivntter up at once set a day and with the aid of our dally papers, keep It before the pub lic. It Is a matter that should be heartily endorsed by the Board of Health and the Commercial Club IV -.1 11 o THE QUALI'I Y STORE y. - . 1,111 .
