Moro towns die for want Of confidence
on the part of business men and lack OF
public spirit than from any other causc.-
When a man in search of home or
business location goes into town and
finds everything brim full of nope and
enthusiasm over the prospects Of the
place, and all earnestly at work to build
itup, ne soon becomes imbued with the
same spirit, aud as a result he drives
down his stakes and goes to work with
the same zeal. 1t IS the duty of every
citizen to try and make a live, enterprls-
ing town out Of the one in which he lives.
When you are working or saying good
hing for your town you are accomplish
mig all the more for yourself
