Whittier are we drifting? Some
time ago a wise fellow discovered that
it is unhealthy for two people to oc
cupy the same bed: later another
found out that it was unsafe to ride
on car with other people, to attend
church where other people attend
later an association of physicians de
cided thaG to kiss was to tempt death
in all manner of hideous diseases
The very latest is the discovery of a
French scientist that the practice Of
Misunderstanding is a prolific source o.
speeding disease. If things keep W
it will soon be unhealthy to be buried
in the same graveyard with other peo
pie. The only place where person
can feel absolutely safe from disease
is at midweek prayer meetings. No
body attends them.
The best way to build up town is
to stand by every man in the town
All residents should be partners, not
opponents. In all livelihoods the
more business your rival does the
more you will do. Every business
man who treats his customers honest
ly, courteously and fairly will get his
share, and the more business that
can be secured by united efforts, the
better it will be for all. When towI
ceases to grow it begins to die, and
the more people try to kill each Other
in their business the more readily
will utter ruin come to all. STAND
together for the advancement o.
every citizen. If a man shows ability
to prosper do not pull him back
through jealousy or weigh him dowI
through cold Indifference.
