Community Beautification Suggested for 4H Clubs in 1966
A plan proposes that 4H clubs pick one activity for the year replacing broader Safety Health Conservation and Recreation efforts. Mrs. Charles Freitag and her committee will discuss Community Beautification next Monday. Lynn Brooks notes 175 watt mercury bulbs mounted 20 feet high give adequate yard lighting, with two units preferred for large yards, and Mercury lighting offers security and cost benefits.
