the press of the country, the solution
Of which IS not an casy matter. tefyr-
ing to it an exchange says:
''The proper way to run Il town is 10
either run in with Il vim or else sell
out and leave. Men who are always
going to get out of business never do
help to build up town. Either ran a
thing for all its worth, get up steam
and keep it up, or quit the whole thing,
slide out and let nature take its
course. If business, is to. .cQme to you

prosperous town, to which people can
come who propose to make homes with
you, then do away with and Dury from
sight all iealousies and spites, all
growing and fault-finding, work no
more for a few individuals, but all
work for common prosperity and
mutual benefit. Wake up and rub
your eyes, roll up your sleeves and go
to work with a vim. Don't work with
fear and trembling, but take it for
truth that blood will tell In this
