To, say it another way : They want work done,, they want an improvement league, advertising anil entertainments, but they wiU not join and help do : -the. .work; They wouldn't mind giving soma money to the league for improvc1 ment purposes, provided ''eyer dollar they give on Mon'cjjiy $urej ly would comeback itironv the laundry on Wednesday, Huerally loaded down with other (dollars, i Of course, tlnTt calinot in un organization of this' kinfl, ft sinf ply won't come by 'Jeups'j'arid hounds.
