Show -. - ... 1 A Clean-up Suggestion "'ml Why nut have a "Clean-Up Day" (or a "Clean-Up Vfeek") for Bingham Bing-ham Canyon? Here is something for all citizens to think About and for all organizations to "do about." It is something Bingham Cayon need. We cannot all agree on politics religion, or whether crss word puzzles are going to elevate the race; but we can all get together oh the proposition that a great thing for this town would be a little trimmings up, painting up, fixing up CLEANING UP, , The best way to do this is 'to 'ORGANIZE. Then create public sentiment senti-ment that is, make it POPULAR TO CLEAN UP and QUITE UNPOPULAR UNPOP-ULAR NOT TO CLEAN UP and lastly, GO OUT AND CLEAN UP! The most democratic organization known is a crowd $i good-natured, good willed, whole-souled, community-loving citizens, alt crtu together giving giv-ing the quick exodus to rubbish, tin cans, weeds, and dea stuffs that lay useless and an eyesore to passers-by. This is everybody'iPbusiness to see to it that the work is done. After the actual cleaning up i done let us not be content; let us appeal to individual pride and encouragi: the necessary painting of buildings, the carpenter work for that tumble-down fence, or a new hinge for that garage door. T ' ' We have mentioned above three things which in our opinion are necessary neces-sary to do the work; organization, popularity, and execution. The PRESS-BULLETIN will do its part in two of them: help popularize the movement by giving of its news space for publicity, and, give of its manpower man-power on the appointed day. But the organizing of the campaign is highly important. What club or organization will take the lead? And the lead having been taken, who would not cooperate in this worthwhile undertaking? Under direction of the constituted authorities the town coukl be set off into two, three or more zones, with a captain and workers assigned to each. Business men who could not leave their posts would be privileged to hire substitutes. In the evening of Clean-Up day, the ladies coold serve a community com-munity feed for the workers. We can scent the hot hamburgers and hot "dogs" and the steaming coffee already! . Some may have other and better plans, and the Press-Bulletin hopes to hear of them. Our purpose mainly is to call attention to the need. Let the plans evolve and the work go forward. The result will be cleaner and more attractive community. . ... ' ' |
