As viewed by the Weston Leader !:
"Atbena is to have Chautauqua meet
ing this spring, probably in June. At
recent meeting of the Commercial
Association it took only ten minutes
for ten members of the association to
sign a guarantee for making good any
deficit up to $1,000. This little COM
pany of boosters has been doing lot
of good for Athena. although it has
had to pull a numter of "dead ones"
along with it."

who are suspected cases, segregating
them from the healthy children.

The following taken from the
Sprague Advocate. is gospel truth all
the way through: A town is very
much like an individual. To be
fourishing, it must have energy and
enterprise. The people in a town
should remember that the individual
prosperity depends to large extent
upon the character of the place in
which their business is located. Every
public measure should be literally
supported by all. especially the Eusi-
ness men. AT the present day there
is as much competition between towns
as there is among persons and business
enterprises. A man seeking a location
will invariably selaot town that ia
up to the times. and is eagerly in
favor of every modern improvement.
A town in these modern times can't
afford to be peopled with old fogies or
antediluvian fossils who are continu-
ally kicking at every enterprise. 10
make fourishing town you must be-
lieve in its future and work for it,
encouraging improvement. Make
special effort to exhibit some evidence
Of improvement in your own work
and character. Help every worthy
man, help enterprise. and encourage
every good man to locate in your
town.
