Oilier people look to yon for an example ex-ample if you do not speak well of the community, if you do not do HoinelhiuB for the community, others will do likewise. No city, town, village or hamlet can expect, to become a better, mort interesting, more attractive place to live, work, play and prosper unless everybody does a little something. It isn't necessary to spend days or weeks on a drive of some kind; you don't have to get out and make a show of yourself; nor is it necessary for you to lie one of the big toads in the puddle, to be able to do something. some-thing. And don't think that when you do do anything for the benefit of others, that you are a martyr to the cause: nor that you are donating. Get it out of your head that you are doing some- thiug charitable every time you go a little out of your way to perform a little service or dig down in your 1 pocket for a few dollars to make pos- sible something that the other fellow L will get some good out of. You can't make money unless the Jj other fellow does. What profits the community profits you, and there are & no "if's", "and's' or "but's" about it. Do something! You have a dozen b chances every Way to do something, to say something that will build. You j have as many opportunities to put your foot on what others say and r I what others fail to do that tears y down. Get Community Minded! It is good 4 business, and plain, every-day, com- mon sense. Copyright, 1929, A. D. Stone. Reproduction Re-production prohibited in whole or in . part.
