The calm and quietness of them offering Insufficient com- I>etitlon to the excitement of cities;their dark and silent streets having less interest than the gar ish brightness of larger towns. There ate compensation« to liv ing in a small town, many of them. One gets to know people and really there isn’t anything more fun than people. Mechanical things, gadgets, exhibitions are fun, too, but they cannot com pare with people. People in small towns are seen dally, talked to often and their peculiarities known. In the big cities people march by as If a division of in fantry was going by; in small towns one learns to know a few of them. When we have a wedding every one knows the bride and is happy with her; a funeral brings sincere regret for the deceased had a place in the lives of everyone. We share the lives of others and they share ours and all are enriched thereby. We are i*H,ple. Individ uals. We are not merely custom ers, aeqaintanees, prospects. When we have a football game we know all the players, his num ber, bis parents, his abilities. We walk up and down the sidelines and cheer the team. They are not like actors on a huge screen hut Individual boys who tomorrow will Is» taking a different part in town activities. There are opportunities in small towns, probably the best there are anywhere. Small towns can us doctors, dentists, beauticians, mechanics, businessmen of all kinds. The rewards are not so startling as In larger towns but the success is more assured. If one is a good Individual be can do all right in a small town and the competition seldom presses him out of shape as It sometimes does In the city. We small towners are Individ uals; we live our own lives. Per haps the decline of individualism comes from the movement to the cities. In cities people are cogs In vast machines, units of demand and production, figures In statis tics; In small towns people are In dividuals. Ami we like to be In dividuals, I’EW THINGS PERFECT The footKall squad has finished Its season except for a post-season scrimmage or two and the mem ories that will always be a part of It. The boys won all their games but one and that the last one, and the one they wanted to win most. They hail a good season, win ning all games but one anti often by comfortable scores. The play ers got some good training out of the game and the effort to get to play. Some who didn’t try hard enough missed some games. It will lie that way all through life. It Is entirely possible that more is learned by losing than by winning although a mixture of the two is better than too much of either. The boys were not dis couraged by their defeat by Un ion last year and were determin ed to win In 1951. They will not Is» discouraged by losing again and eventually will learn to com bat the play of the Comlskcy coached team. aren’t contacted to bring salad and vegetables. The meat will be furnished by the grange. Little Walter Meyers fell off while riding one of his father’s shetland ponies Saturday after- noon. He had a concussion from an injury to his head, but the doctor allowed him to return home after an examination.
