Very interesting lessons are
to be learned from the article
headed THAT Artesian WelP.
In the first place three people,
each interested deeply in the
matter, turn to entirely differ
ent sources to get information.
Next we notice that some peo-
pie will take an interest in pub
lie affairs without being on a
committee, while there are 9th
er people in the community who
can never be induced to push
public matter at all, No refer
ence is intended to the members
of the committee appointed to
look after the artesian we'll f0r
they are all workers, but there
are others in this community
who never turn a. hand to help
public matters.

Shepard made arrangements with
