The community newspaper - the glue that helps hold a community together, and the spur that helps keep it moving forwi 'ard. The litter season begins In Summer, more of us are outside, eating ices and snacks and drinking from paper cups. Many, many more of these wrappings appear, plus whatever lay hidden under the leaves of Fall and snows of .Winter, popping, up like the wildflowers of Spring. It is especially painful to see litter spread over our, beaches, or to swim near floating debris It is unhealthy for both.people and wildlife. >^ We pay for litter control by the town and other taxing entities, but it is never enough. And that is why person-, .ai-responsibility-is so •important* • - \ - . ' - Have you ever watched an employee walk into a busi- ness'pretending not\to see. the litter in front? Well, the customers see it, and the employee's paycheck will shrink as a result. >, - v 5 If you see a bank with a pile of litter in front of it, you don't care that the prevailing winds brought all that trash and leaves there. You figure the bank doesn't care much about the community it serves, and you are probably right. If you see a storekeeper sweeping in front of her store, you know she does care about her appearance. A professor crossing the quad on the way to class, stops to pick up a piece of litter. It certainly it isn't his job in the usual sense, but irtthe sense that the professor teaches not just by word but by deed, he makes a lasting impact, and, yes, that is his job! There are not many things you can do in life that can make a difference so easily as picking up a bit of litter. ; Keep Your Hometown Clean - Don'tLitter! roundabout frooport KINDERGARTEN \MOVING UP\ DAY was an exciting time for the children, families and staff at Hi- Hello Child Care Center.
