Show ii i WHY ANNOY OUR GUESTS? ! The good people of Mount Pleasant have done remarkably well in the clean-up movement which has been conducted during the past few weeks. Most of the rubbish and refuse of the streets and lots has been gathered gath-ered up and haiuled out of the city. But, why dump all this mingled mass of litter right on the side of the public pub-lic highway? Everyone who has journeyed between be-tween the towns towards the west and south have been harassed as they passed these unsightly places. It is indeed unpleasant to have these spots so conspicuous to guests of the beautiful city of Mount Pleasant! as they approach the city from the distance. All this annoyance can be entirely eliminated by securing a piece of waste land off away from the public highway; up in the brush somewhere out of the way. It would be a very good thing to have a "clean-up" of the present dumping grounds and make our highways attractive instead of being in the present-condition. |
