The
City
CLEM-UP
The
City
of
Prince
Rupert
has
fallen
in
line
with
other
cities
of
Canada
in
organizing
a
Clean-up
Week.
The
present
is
a
time
when
all
the
citizens
are
asked
"to
see
that
their
premises,
front
and
back,
arc
spic
and
span
with
all
loose
cans
picked
up,
filth
cleared
away
and
neatness
and
tidiness
replacing
slovenliness.
Citizens
are
also
urged
to
repair.
and
paint
.their,
fences
to
paint
the
housc-or-outbuildings
if
nedessary
and
to
generally
keep
in
line
with
modern
civilization.
Everyone
knows
that
these
are
difficult
times
but
no
one
can
afford
to
look
poor,
even
if
he
is
poor.
Much
can
be
done
at
little
expense
to
make
the
shop
front
bright,
to
brighten
up
the
outbuildings
or
to
overhaul
the
interior.
The
condition
of
the
home
has
an
effect
on
every
member
of
the
family.
Several
persons
were
only
last
week
making
remarks
about
the
appearance
of
some
of
the
smaller
stores
in
the
city
where
neither
landlord
or
tenant
was
willing
to
paint
the
shop
front.
The
windows
never
looked
really
attractive
where
the
paint
on
the
shop
front
was
badly
worn
or
had
a
shabby
appearance.
The
opinion
expressed
was
that
it
helped
business
to
keep
the
place
attractive.
People
do
not
.
like
to
shop
in
a
place
that
seems
to
be
down
at
heel.
