Let Us Build This Com­
munity Upon Good Will
Communities built upon a foundation of good
will toward all, a sincere effort toward honest deal­
ing with our fellow men, are the communities that
will endure long after others founded upon a less
liberal application of the golden rule have passed
away.
It is the earnest wish of every true member of
this community that it shall grow and prosper. Each
one is anxious and willing to do his share toward
promoting this growth. Each may do his share by
doing each day his daily task in the best way he
knows how.
Confidence in our home institutions, in our
neighbors, and a pride in our local developments
of both private and public nature will make for the
progress and growth of this community.
