A TOWN IS WHAT TIIH PEOPLI

ANY CITV, town or community
13 Just exactly what tho poo
ilu who live In It muko It.
While- It Is bettor than Its worst
Inhabitant, It Is also worso than
IU best. In fart it is no butter
nor worso than its average Inhabi
tant. Tho best thing In any town
h Its broadest minded, progress
ive citizen, nnd tho most dangerous
thing in any town is tho man who
damns his town.
A town Is very seldom tho ro
suit of virgin natural conditions,.
and In nny ovent It was man who
unw and developed tho natural ad
vantages. Many n good town has
been practically imido n few good
men, but they wero not knockers.
They were booster), first, last and
nil tho time. Tho first essential
In, tho 'Improvement of any town Is
either to convert the knockers, or
'to get ltd of them. It Is so much
easier to tear down than it is to
build up, that half a dozen knock
ers in any community can vitiate
tho best cffortH of nil tho balance.

A modern Cooa Uay girl does
more primping to go to a grocery
