I could stand in our front yard and hit either of their homes with a rock, , Both are beyond retirement age and each suffers from the common ailments . incident to that period in life. In spite of these handicaps, their homes and surrounding yards are neat and well kept. Neither has curb and gutter out front, but they have lawn grass on both sides of the irrigation ditches. Their lawns are kept neatly cut and well watered.Shrubs, roses and flower beds are always al-ways attractive and beautiful. Such of the work that they cannot can-not do themselves, "they , hire someone to do for them. Both places are not only a credit to the community but visible evidence of what can be done by elderly people when they care enough "to do their very best," so to speak. Conversely in the same neighborhood, there is another older home where conditions are just the reverse. Sometime ago, the, owner of this home passed away and the title went to a family of heirs. Since then nothing has been done to keep the place from deterioration. Last sumimer, the lawns surrounding sur-rounding the house were allow-, ed to burn up from lack oi wat I 1 ft 0 r at a band concert, which will be free to the public. , The band will play the current cur-rent high school contest numbers num-bers as well as spirited marches mar-ches and musical selections from "My Fair Lady." Ken Bastian, John Woffin-den Woffin-den and Herbert Gilbert Jr. will play a trumpet trio, accompanied accompan-ied by John Bezzant. Mr. Bezzant will also play incidental piano music to the band number, "New York Suite." . , .v. Attends Funeral Mr. and Mrsr Fred Keetch and son Keith, Mr. and Mrs. Harry Steele and LT R. Pett of American Fork spent last week end in Ely, Nevada, where they attended the funeral of 'Mrs. Keetch's cousin, 1st Lt. Gary L. Steele. Lt. Steele died in a U.S. Hospital Hos-pital on Okinawa, after being shot that day on a mission in Viet Nam. He was co-pilot of a helicopter, and had made 25 missions before being killed. He is the only son of Mr. and Mrs. Blaine Steele of Bliss, Idaho, and had attended the University of Utah. Creek er. Last fall, the leaves that fell . from the Norway maple trees were never raked up by the owners. ; Some of the neighborhood children , raked some of the leaves into piles, so they could romp and play in them. They still lie there in weatherbeaten unsightly heaps. After a wet spring, the lawns are making a valiant effort to come back. But, unless they receive re-ceive immediate and continual care, they will never make it. Thus in one small area in this community we have striking examples of the results of positive pos-itive and negative civic concern. con-cern. Community beautification is after all, pretty much of an individual in-dividual responsibility. There are those who care and those who care not. It iias always been thus . ' ; Civic leaders, charged with the responsibility of creating a "Town Beautiful" are always confronted with this problem: How to stimulate the "Dori't Cares" in order that they may become those "Who Care." Anyone, who has the answer to this problem and will make hi& solution known, will indeed be a great public benefactor. Battle Creek Breeze will gladly publish any suggestions that might help. So long 'til Thursday. ii.iP'.'.u.. .. i'Jiuuymtj 1-1, jut v-n- (a 0 I TA Mr. Stone expressed appreciation apprec-iation to all, whose contributions contribu-tions to the band fund made the purchase of the new uniforms uni-forms possible. We are looking forward to participation in the coming Strawberry Day parades, he emphasized. Cleanup ion Last Wednesday Successful Affair Mayor Paul T. Fordham expressed ex-pressed appreciation for the marked success ' of Pleasant Grove's Community Cleanup, held Wednesday, April 21. "I wish to especially thank Mrs. Alice Simper and members "of the Beautification Committee and the Chamber of Commerce and Pleasant Grove's cooperating cooperat-ing and progressive businessmen," business-men," the Mayor said. He pointed out that the local merchants and service houses evidently lost some business by the almost 100 per cent 1:00 p.m. closing. However, they gained a lot of good will, the Mayor pointed out. The cleanup day began early in the morning when city workmen work-men gave Main Street a thorough thor-ough face washing. Home and property owners, for the most part, responded loyally to the call and numerous tnickloads of debris were hauled away last Thursday. Mrs, Simper was also enthusiastic enthus-iastic about the fine response of the public in general. She said that the tree and shrub planting at the Veterans Swimming Swim-ming Pool would be attempted again Friday, April 30, which is Arbor Day, throughout Utah. New Visit Policy To Start May 3 at Am. Fork Hospital A new policy regarding hospital hos-pital visits is being announced this week by Wayne R. Mc-Tague, Mc-Tague, administrator of .the American Fork Hospital." This policy, which will go into in-to effect May 3, has been established estab-lished for the good of the patient pa-tient and the efficiency of the hospital staff. , Each patient will be issued a visitor card for one family member, which will be good for any time of the day, except for the maternity ward. In addition addi-tion to this, there will be two cards for each patient, which will be handed out by the Pink Lady during visiting hours. ' As these cards are returned they will be handed out again until visiting hours are over. It is hoped that the public will see the wisdom of this card system in keeping the visiting vis-iting hours better regulated and quieter for the - patients, and that full cooperation will be given to the jnkJLady on duty.
