Improvement societies are primarlaliY
useful In bringing neighbors together
for the promotion of mutual interests,
and In creating and intelligently direct
inv public interest In the Fsthetics Of
rural life when one man mends his
fences, relays his sidewalk, beauties
his lawn and sets out handsome trees,
his zeal Ia not attributed to public mo
tiyes. Surely ueighhors who are
unwilling to improve their own
homes and grounds, will say that
he Is trying to make big show. or
that he does not know what TO do with
his money, or that he spends all his time
sin fusslng over his place Let there
be village improvement society, and
thea his motives will not be questioned
He will be looked upon as man who Is
doing something for the town and rem
derlng life pieassnter for his neighbors
when he makes his own grounds and the
approaches to them more slightly. Or

Gus relations. Not only are the eyes
trained in the appreciation of natural
beauty and artistic landscape effects, but
hearts are softened and social sympsthies
are excited. such villages are places
where contented men like to live. Pros
