If you want to see this town grow, remember that you are a part of it and its growth depends as much upon you as on your neighbors. Don’t get the idea that the future prosperity of this town rests with a few, for it is the business of the many. Above all, don’t criticise those who are trying to upbuild the community and do nothing yourself. They at least have the proper spirit, and, just as long as you deny them your support, just that much harder their work will be. Be a booster for the town and lend your co-operation to those who had the nerve to start first. It is never too early to start, and it is never to late to begin.—Ex.
