| Clean-Up Campaign Is 'Definitely
Successful/ Judges Report
This year’s clean-up campaign,
which ended the week before
Colony Day, today was pro
nounced a decided success by ex
amining judges Louise Kellogg,
Thomas Moyer and Joe Hudock.
“We would like to compliment
the homeowners, in particular,”
a committee spokesman said.
“Most of them made a decided ef
fort and the homes in Palmer
are a credit to the town.”
However the committee was
not so complimentary in its re
port on business establishments in
Palmer. “The garages, as a whole,
are the worst places in town,”
they report. “However the area
in the rear of businesses facing
the main streets is not much bet
ter. They need a lot of work done
before they can be considered
really cleaned up.”
The committee recommended,
for garages, that a fence be built
around areas in which junk and
automobile derelicts are piled.
It was pointed out that in addi
tion to improving the appearance
— zssssz
of the garage, the fence would
serve as a protection for the
owner, and could be utilized for
advertising purposes, as well.
It was further recommended
that someone assume responsi
bility for cleaning up the burned
over area on which the former
hospital was located. “It seems
a shame,” the spokesman com
mented, “that as long ago as that
fire happened, still nothing has
been done to clean up and beau
tify the site.”
The committee felt that next
year’s drive should extend over
a two-week period, to be sched
uled just prior to Colony Day, in
order to allow more outdoor work
to be done.
It was the committee’s hope
that more homes would be sur
rounded by lawns, when inspec
tion time comes in May of 1951.
