If there be one better way
than another to ruin a town, it is
for those who live in it to go a.
bout apologizing for its exist
ence. There are some who are
always ready to say, by their
actions at least, that this place
doesn't amount to much. They
will tell you that that the town
is dead: that no one would
think of stopping here; that
some town adjacent is more re-
spectacle, more enterprising,
has better people, better enjoy
ments, and is ahead of US in
everything. This is all wrong.
Even if this be true, no one
should ever admit it, when it
comes to making a comparison.
Every good citizen of his town
should take a special pride in
all that pertains to home. The
schools, the churches, the a.
musements, the business. the
pleasures, the picnics, the cele-
Aration, in ia ct everything
puld be looked on by our own
ple as just as good as can be
en up elsewhere. The town
