IT BONANZA Tuesday has been designated as the day when all townsfolk should have their outdoor cleaning done and have the trash properly gathered up in sacks or containers so it can easily be picked up and carted away. Trucks will be provided by the city and the hauling is free, so there is hardly any excuse for not getting rid of unwanted trash. Persons are being urged not only to clean their own back yards, but also to clean adjoining lots or roads which might have been used to gather excess overflow. Anyone who is not busy otherwise, and can do his own hauling will help a great deal toward making the little town look as though it really has had a spring house cleaning. It is also hoped that a lot of the old junked cars will disappear. Looking for Bargains?
