Stable Publications, pubu.-n-; is at :hc Roy Su Tunes and The Clearfield Courier, would like (o extend a warm thank you to the communities of Roy, Riverdalc, Hooper, Clearfield, and Sunset for their acceptance of the voluntary-pa- y system for route carriers. As to be expected with a new system, some problems have risen, but the majority of the leedback we have received from our readers proves that the program is satisfying the purpose it was designed for. Money received by the carriers is used exclusively for building the carrier program Of the 75 cents collected per home each cents goes directly to the carrier. The month, at least remainder of the funds is used fur trophies and cash awards for the Carriers of the Month, carrying bags and elastics, and parties, such as the pizza bash recently held for carriers in the Clearfield area. A similar event is being planned for Times carriers. A bonus point system has also been designed to help the carriers work toward collecting enough bonus points to purchase valuable prizes. The present carriers and their parents are, for the most part, very pleased with the program. It is a project which teaches our youth the value of hard work plus money and time management. Again we appreciate your support and so do the carriers. 15-3- 867-221- Scout-o-Ram- a tickets on sale NADA NICHOLAS, left, Director of the Miss Sunset Pageant explains the contest rules to Ruth Ann Stephens, who is about to be signed up as a contestant by Sheree Kapp, right.
