Once in a while it is nice to
write about something pleas
ant, and this week 1 have the
opportunity. 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.
