disposal.

We are serving not only as stewards of the environment with segregation but also
helping ourselves to be able to practice discipline. No matter how old we are, our manners and
courteous acts should remain with us, regardless of time and place, whether there are trash
cans or none.

Thank you and hoping for your cooperation! God bless.
