CIVIC PRIDE—DO WE HAVE IT?
The city of Wolf Point is a thriving community, the
trading center for a large portion of northeastern Mon
tana. The next few years will undoubtedly bring about an
expansion in population and a correspanding increase in
the wealth of the city. No other community in Montana
has such a promising future. Nothing gives us greater sat
isfaction than the thought that other people like our city,
want to live here.
But, before we can expect others to like our city we
must show that we ourselves like it and are proud of our
community. Cities aren’t judged by their business districts
alone. A drive through the residential area, an inspection
of the condition of the streets, their cleanliness, the interest
its residents take in beautifying the grounds around their
hom^s; these are the factors which influence a prospective
newcomer’s decision as to whether or not he will come to
Wolf Point to live.
It doesn’t require much time or effort to mow the
lawn, tend the shrubbery and water the flowers around the
house, and the results of these simple labors are very
gratifying. Yet the plain truth is that a number of us
have been negligent about these duties here in Wolf Point.
Untidy lawns and uncovered garbage cans are both
an eyesore and a danger to the health of the community.
Let us show a little civic pride and concern by being more
careful in the future about the appearance of our city and
the observance of the necessary health precautions.
A city, unless given the care and attention it de
serves, soon grows shabby in its appearance. It doesn’t
little work and tidyin ^ to keep Wolf Point
