That which is given away is usually THROWN away and nobody --;but nobody-want- s it. Litterbugging is something that everyone gets in on and everybody deplores. Sentiment has become so strong that there have been laws passed to govern the careless habit -- laws with teeth in them. Enforcement now would help. But, there is still another kind of litterbugging. Litterbugging on a grandoise scale. And what is worse about this kind of litter-bugging is, that it's so darned hypocritical. Do you know what we mean? Well, let's describe it. You walk down the main thor-oughfares. What do you see? Polished windows, gorgeous dis-plays, shiny door knobs, spot-less welcome mats, and you feel a real cleanliness - is --next air all about. And we'll be the first to admit, that's wonderful. But - Did you ever take a walk out into the back yards of some of these oh-so-fi- ne stores? Out back you'd see such a fly breed-ing, rat enticing, eye and nose offending, fire inviting mess that you'd hardly believe that the front and the back of the store belong-ed to the same person. Cleanliness is next to godliness-an- d like charity, cleanliness begins at home. Of course we all know the answer, That good front means "profit." and it might be pointed out that everyone's in business to make a profit. And everyone keeps a good front. And again, we'll be the first to admit that's wonderful. But NOT everyone that keeps a good front keeps an offensive backyard. So it's easy to see that those who are thoroughly clean, front and back, can be really irked by a hypocritical litterbugger. In addition to it's being offensive in all the ways we've mentioned, when Mother Nature plays her theme song "Gone With the Wind" things really get scattered around. How about it? Let's clean up in back. Ground Broken For New Home On Campus Ground was broken Tuesday in the Southeast corner of the West-minster College campus facing on 13th East street for a modern and artistic bridk residence. It is being given to the College by Mr. and Mrs. P.M. Pontz, 1350 Down-ingto- n avenue, as a memorial to the Pontz family and primarily to their san, Walter G. Pontz, who lost his life during World War 2. Mr. Pontz, assistant to the president of the College, has been a member of the administrative staff since 1921. In 1954 he was awarded an LHD degree in rec-ognition of his many years of service to the College. The residence, which is being built at a cost of approximately $16,000, is being constructed at the sole cost and expense of the donors and when completed will be occupied by Mr. and Mrs. Pontz during their lifetime and all in-surance and other costs will be paid by the College.

A Warren Ottley Ottley's Announce New Service In Business . Ottley's Paint Pot, 2157 Hyland Drive, has joined Painting and Decorating Credit, a nation-wid-e program now sponsoring install-ment buying in the decorating field, according to an announce-ment made by Warren S. Ottley, owner and manager of the well known Sugar House organization. Painting and Decorating Credit is a public service plan sponsored nationally by three major trade associations in the paint industry. These are the National Paint, Varnish & Lacquer Association, representing paint manufacturers; the Retail Paint and Wallpaper Distributors of America, Inc. the Painting and Decorating Contractors of America, Inc. In announcing his store's par-ticipation in the plan, Ottley stated: "Americans are more homo conscious than ever before. They appreciate and enjoy their homes and are constantly improving them. Use of paint is one of the accepted ways of beautifying a home inside and out. However, stores specializing in the sale of paint and related products have generally maintained a cash business. We feel that our cus-tomers and our industry will benefit through a system for in-stallment buying. This is what Painting and Decorating Credit will provide." Ottley also pointed out that Painting and Decorating Credit will not only enable the buyer to purchase paint on credit but will offer "Package" deals whereby one credit transaction will take care of all supplies.
