Very good film. I like how openly and freely neighbours talk to each other. In Germany, where I live, everyone grows thick and dense hedges around his property that neighbours can't have a look at them.
@@sirtrently77 Personally, I can go weeks without a trash pickup. Some neighbors pay extra to get another garbage cart to stuff. Twice-per-week pickup has to drive up the taxes some. I live in Des Moines, IA. Where are you?
If they would listen and understand this in 2024. Our once beautiful cities are a disaster. Once neat and tidy streets..... Cars parked on what was once lawn. Third world lifestyles. God bless the founding fathers 🙏
What caught my eye was that the neighborhood kids banded together and did a lot of the clean up work, doing good. Not vandalizing or such. The Mrs. at the beginning was sure a nag. But in the end, they lived happily ever after and neighbors invited others over for a outdoor meal, now that the mosquitoes were banished.
karen4you Kind of the same spirit that group of 300 strangers from all over the country brought to Baltimore last week. They banded together and picked up 14 tons of garbage.
Quickly! To the rotary phone! It was a simpler time, when everyone gathered together and thought about the neighbors garbage cans instead of playing on the interweb. They live in Florida (like me). I can tell by the way the houses and yards look. Also the huge emphasis on mosquitoes and rats.
I have not seen any plants that are indiginous to Florida. Also a septic system in a topography that hinders basements being built? I have seen buildings like the one shown in Florida but ice also seen them in New Jersey. And everyone worries about mosquitoes and rats.
Why does the husband tell the wife he knows the head of the garbage department from his being a big time college player and not the coach of their kid's football team? Wouldn't the wife know him as well?
This is my favorite one of these. I am laughing so hard...aaaahhhhh the 1950s...the years when keeping your yard nice was something to be competitive about. All the kids roll their eyes at their parents collectively declaring that it must be the neighbors....then they go be more mature than the adults.
It was more of a thing in the 1960s and 70s, not so much in the 50s. It was too much work before the 1960s. Power lawn mowers and edgers were way too expensive for most of us in the 1950s
Times were different back then when they respected the youth and their potential. They were motivating and hopeful for them when the present was bright and hope was the fuel
the entire extended family and neighbourhood are all upset because someone's old rubbish container broke?? goodness, didn't they have anything better to do?
I wish I knew where this was filmed. Its definitely not in LA. But I’d love to know to see how things have changed. So many once nice middle class neighborhoods in L.A are not so nice anymore. I wish the middle class was still the majority populace. It was a definite better time in America. Now it’s hyper wealthy and destitute poor. What a mess
Unlike _stray_ stagnant water (example = puddles), _large_ pools (including home pools) are recommended to use _chlorine._ Kiddie pools are the exception.
This was before Relativism took hold in society. Kids were kids and didn't dictate policy in the home and schools. Adults we're allowed and expected to be Adults and parents; and kids were EXPECTED to respect them and yes, could look up to them as heros and roll models, instead of expecting the world to center exclusively on them.
My mother had metal cans in a cart until 2002 when she died. Everyone uses the city-supplied wheeled carts now. In the old days, trash in plastic bags would be taken. Not any more.
This short was filmed in Septic Springs California where septic springs bubble up everywhere. It's the cheapest homes and real estate in the Country. The Septic Springs High School mascot are the Hell Puddles. I'm not making this up. Ok, I'm making this up. But, that doesn't mean it's not 100% true. Because it isnt. At all. Total fact. Not.
Forget the trash bins...imagine if these folks knew, somehow or other, that their humble rat- and mosquito-infested homes would morph into "mid-century modern," "tear-downs," or "total gut jobs?" The Dads, in suit & tie, trudged off to tedious 9--5 jobs for 30+ years to pay the mortgage on their "gut jobs." The Moms, wearing appropriate, dignified dresses or skirts, spent hours every single day for 30+ years cooking, ironing, and cleaning their "tear-downs." Hmm. Please share words that pop to mind: Irony? Stiflng? Stability? Smuggling? Cozy? Dreamless? Joy? Joyless? Protected? Draining? Hideout? Aliens? 👽
You can laugh at it all you want,but the message behind the film was sound and the “corniness” of it doesn’t negate that message. At least people back then were trying to promote decent values and personal responsibilities in schools instead of indoctrinating them with wacko political agendas and telling them there are 100 different genders and that they can identify as a walrus if they want to. We also weren’t teaching them that they are are all victims and not responsible for the consequences of their poor decisions and are owed something. It beats the hell out of the stupidity surrounding us today. I would find find it laughable if it weren’t real.
How times have changed In 2019 we don't use metal Garbage cans anymore We have plastic garbage cans And we also recycle old cantaners Get taken to a factory to get reused nothing is wasted in the mellenium. Everything is plastic Metal is obsolete
Plus...if watching without sound you have this scene: "Who doesn't have the health department direct number memorized?" * proceeds to dial 3 digit telephone number *
Why didn't the trash men take away the rusty holey can? They used to come by with spray trucks to kill the Mosquitoes. But I guess it stopped because of ddt
That would be a horrible neighborhood to live in were nobody minds their business. We had metal garbage cans when I was a small boy my dad would paint them to keep them from rusting through or should I say slow the rust down.

I can say a couple of things on that were i live .my neighborhood is a ghetto. Yes i ued to lived in The Bronx back in 1972 til we moved to another state this was a very clean and beautiful place. I couldn't believe the difference.streets clean .but now The Bronx looks better then this theres garbage furniture that people leave on my street its alwful.in my neighbor theres a nexts of all nationalities. But how can i or the rest come together and sit and think about a situation.pkus theres alot of these half wzy houses popping up with all kinds of people with bad habits. I think that we should have a meeting in the neighborhood and discuss these home been built on our street. But one person cant do it.
@@dogman9291 i wouldn't call 2 years a long time, stupid. either learn something, or shut the fuck up. and if you think that a law was passed and everyone all of sudden started skipping around hand in hand, you should really consider taking yourself out of the game. jesus, fucking dumb people are the worst.
⚠️ WARNING :: This is not a film to be watched by the Rona Fearful crowd! If you think Fauchi’s disease drumming is bad, just wait till you watch THIS public education piece from the 1960s on what city heath and safety officials were on the lookout for then! 😅
They fixed their problems, they ain't gross. I seen worse places then that to be honest, there was once a family that lived down my street back at my old house and they where hoarders! You can walk pass their house and see junk on the outside and you can see things inside the house that stack so high it went to the ceiling. What makes it worse is that they had two loving dogs and a cat trapped in that house! When they got their them taken away the dogs and cat had fleas all over them and they haven't had baths or grooming in a long time. The cat died but dogs now live happy and healthy life's with their new familys, but the hoarders had 5 kids that still lived with them. They had two 1 year old twin girls, a 3 and 8 year old boy, and a 14 year old girl the last time I saw them... I'm surprised they didn't got their kids taken away by child services!
I was a health inspector and this film was a hoot. The state actually brought this film to our office for training. Betty was so ashamed. 😂
Downtown Portland needs to see this
Love these old films
Very good film. I like how openly and freely neighbours talk to each other. In Germany, where I live, everyone grows thick and dense hedges around his property that neighbours can't have a look at them.
some of these old movies are still relevant today
Can we please stop to notice how BEAUTIFUL that neighbourhood is? :)
Right?! People took pride in ownership.
Love Betty's bulletproof hair.

All of these videos need to be shown in schools and on TV.........DAILY.

I throw my old bread out in the backyard .The birds eat them before nightfall.

Once every two weeks where I live 😕
We used to live in an area where it was once a week, but now we’re in a twice a week area.

When I was growing up in the 1960s, the garbage man came twice a week, Mondays and Thursdays.

not for me. the hook was when the gang of juveniles were recruiting to be in their gang.
But there were about 6 or 7 coloured boys on the team. What happened to them cleaning up the neighbourhood?

This really has some helpful information. Thank you for sharing it. God Bless You and stay safe.
Those two young boys look to the Head of Sanitation as a Hero? LMAO
I love how the neighborhood Martha Stewart shows off her yard to hubby's health department pal only to get busted for breeding mosquitoes!
They clean up the place once, and never again.

Wow! Back then there was neighborhood weenie roasts?
were not was
Not just weenies... marshmallows, too!!! People made S'mores!!!
In this case, only two families were involved.

Neighbors today have pools that are breeding grounds. Every house with a pool would have to be inspected from License & Inspections!
Unlike _stray_ stagnant water (example = puddles), _large_ pools (including home pools) are recommended to use _chlorine._
Kiddie pools are the exception.
I'm curious to see what that neighbourhood looks like today.
The little houses are $900,000
it's probably a ghetto
It’s been bulldozed for an IKEA.

Get taken to a factory to get reused nothing is wasted in the mellenium. Everything is plastic
Metal is obsolete
There's a color version as well.
When we wake up and go to work in the dark and come home in the dark, who sees a garbage can?
DDT for me!
Well, nothing a little strychnine and DDT won't cure...fuckin neighbors!
That is one nasty neighborhood. I hope the boys set out some D Con.
Wow! His wife was a real pain and controlling!
