"If you want to livo in thu kind of a, town
Like the kind of a town that you like
You needn't li) your clothes in a grip
And .start on a long, long hike;
You'll only find what you left behind
For there's nothing that's really new;
It's a knock at yourself when you knock your town,
It isn't the town it's you.
i)
"Ileal towns are not made by men afraid
Lest somebody else gets ahead;
When everyone works and nobody shirks,
You ean raise a town from the dead;
And if, while you're making your personal stake
Your neighbor ean make one too;
Your town will be what you want to see
It isn't the town it's you." Anon.

Users of Carnation Milk find it a
real economy there is no waste
because it keeps longer. Carnation
is pure, wholesome milk "from
contented cows." After being evap
orated to the consistency of cream
(just partof the water removed), it
is hermetically sealed in new con
tainers. It is then sterilized scien
tifically thcCarnationway which
is another reason why Carnation
Milk keeps longer. Your grocer has
this convenient milk supply. Keep
. several cans in your pantry.
