UTAH, FRIDAY, YEAR H Army Sergeant Lions Club Starts Campaign All Yards To Clean-U- p The Salina Lions Club, deavoring to bring the outward appearance of the community to a point where it will attract tourists, as well as provide satisfaction to property owners, have started a clean-u- p cam- paign, underway at the present time. The Lions campaign calls for the cleaning up of weeds ten out from the fence line, on all lots. From that point, the job will be taken up by the city, according to a representative of the club. It has also been suggested that of the ena complete clean-u- p tire property would do much to curtail the weed problem during the coming summer. A yard clean of weeds and debris, adds much to the beauty and appear- ance of the home, as well as giving satisfaction to the owner, or people who reside there. Vacant lots are probably in the worst condition, and need a great deal of attention. However, it is necessary to clean these places if the city is to have a lived in" appearance. The weed problem has become a major issue in Salina the past few years, arinow is the time to start erradicwtion of that problem. Start fpday to make your lot an asset to Salina.
