Show North City Entrance Selected for Face Lifting This Spring A plan to improve the attractiveness attrac-tiveness of the north approach to Cedar City started two years ago by the City Beautification committee com-mittee will be put into effect this year, according to Mrs. Agatha Aga-tha Lunt. committee chairman. Plans called for the planting of shrubs and trees along both sides of the highway north of the bridge over Coal Creek, but since plans for construction of a new bridge were under way, planting could not be done. However, funds were raised for the purpose and have been kept on hand since that time. Now that the bridge has been completed, the funds will be used for the purchase of shrubs and trees, and they will be planted in the near future, Mrs. Lunt states. Contributions to the fund were made as follows: Chere Amies club, $10; Lady Lions, $10; We-Ak-Avi club, $10; Elks lodge, $10; Lady of Elks, $5; En Avante club, $5; American Legion auxiliary, $5; M B W club, $5; Club Tyro, $3. The beautification committee, which includes Mrs. Lunt, chairman; chair-man; W. Arthur Jones, Mrs. Elene Jensen. Mrs. Amanda Pace, L. Robert Gardner, and Mrs. Annie An-nie McDonough, also appeais to all property owners in Cedar City to make a concerted effort to clean-up, paint-up this spring and make every attempt possible to make Cedar City more beautiful. beau-tiful. Attention should be given to back yards, vacant lots and the streets and sidewalks, as well as I to landscaping around homes, the committee maintains. No i matter how beautifully landscaped land-scaped a l"t may be much of the attractiveness is lost if adjacent vacant lots, surrounding back yards, or the streets and sidewalks side-walks are left over run with weeds and rubbish, the committee commit-tee members state, and urge everyone to cooperate in cleaning up the entire community. |
