MEDFORD MiTL TRIBUNE, MEDFORU. OREGON, MONDAY, FEBRUARY 26. 1934. FAOE TTTREW BUSINESS AREA 1 It's time for spring house cleaning In Medford and the women of the city have come forward with the recom mendation that the cleaning this year be extended through the streets, which they maintain are "unsightly and a. disgrace to & progressive city." They ask that business men, school goers and office aides take thtlr brooms In hand and see that busi ness dooryards as well as resldentl.il backyards enjoy a change In appear ance before March winds have to take the job of sweeping the city. The alleys, the gutters, the very streets, they complained this morn ing to the Mail Tribune, are in need In a general cleanup. Papers, flying about unheeded, tin cans, and other debris, they find particularly annoy In?, and advance the Idea of putting school children to work on this par ticular task. A drive about the-city these days, one woman declared, reveals so much of dirt, that It would be a disgrace to let visitors see the same. The work could be accomplished with very little cost, the women stat ed, if all business firms would Co operate in a general campaign In make Medford once more "the city beautiful of the pear country."
