Also in this day and age, when most of the news about young people lias a negative slant, when we find good points it is a pleasure to bring them out. This spring, two Mill City young fellows, Jimmy Rose, son of Mr. and Mrs. Jim Rose, and Steven Bo- hach, son of Mrs. Nancy Bo- hach are doing their share in tne beautification program of Mill City. On their own, they have rigged up their bicycles and are picking up debris around town—even under the Mill City bridge. This requires quite a bit of their time, but to what better advantage can young people use their after school hours than this. It keeps them busy, and at the same time, they are beginning at an early age to accept the re sponsibility of being good citi zens, and their example could well be followed by many oth ers in our city and nation. If everyone would do his share, it wouldn’t take long to make this a better world to live in. Bud Cline of Mill City Dispos al has agreed to pick up all the materials the young men ga ther, free of charge. $4.00 a YEA r "^ 10c THE MILL CITY ENTERPRISE—MILL CITY, OREGON THURSDAY.
