The following is a bit OF advice
which can be followed with profit:
"If every citizen would make point
of speaking to his or her neighbor,
associate or friend in pleasant way,
what delightful community we
should have. Don't gossip. Any
gossip is evil, idle gossip is criminal.
Drop the miserable, cowardly "they
say" Be sure Of your ground be-
fore you start a report or help start
report, and then be sure that repi-
tion or circulation is for somebody s
good. If it isn't, keep still. We
are all open to criticism. No two
persons look at matter from the
same point Of view There is some
good in everybody, and that is what
we should be looking out for. Just
peg away, mind your own business
and keep everlastingly at it.
