Promoting the Towns Welfare.

Not unvften small cities like Or
ange5urg start organizations to
which is given the titles of "Cham
Der Of Commerce" BOARD of Trade"
or others equally pretentious. The
motive for such organizations is good
but after a fitful and brief career the
organization dies out with nothing ac-
complished. AS a rule, the failure is
due to attempting too much. or in
not having clearly defined methods
Of operation. Naturally when ex-
pectations are not realized, or when
nothing definite is attempted dis
couragement results and the whole
thing fizzles out lngloriously.
And yet there is not town but
cal be bettered by wise organized CO.
operation on the part of its citizens.
This has been proven right here in
this city. What is needed first of all
is a spirit Of union. If faction feel
ing shows itself, failure is certain,
for whatever project one faction pro-
poses Is sure to be opposed by the
other faction, not on its merits but
out Of sheer ccntrariness. We are
glad that no such spirit exists here.
If we want to succeed with the Coun-
ty Fair we must all pull together.
Then, common sense Is imperative.
For a town of five or six thousand to
attempt what is possible only for a ci-
ty OF thirty thousand Is much the
same, and as foolish, as family on
an income of $500 trying to live
like the family that has an income OF
5000. Common sense will dictate
moderation of desire and reasonable
ness in effort. One great need is as
to industries, to find out what ad-
vantages a community may possess
certain lines of business and then to
work energetically and sensibly to
secure them.
In the matter of internal improve
ment by which the town may be made
far more attractive in material beau
ty, and in social and moral life, there
Is always much that can be done by
earnest-minded and intelligent men
and women working harmoniously
together in the spirit of loyalty and
local pride. In fact it should be the
aim of every citizen to make the COM
munity a better place in which to

The morbid crowds, crazy for ex-

the usual speed auto meets reminds
one of the crowds that thronged the
Coliseum in ancient Rome to witness
gladiatorial fights. There Is the
same callousness for human life, the
same demand for danger and sensa-
tionai, and the same disappointment
If no cl.e is killed. Very nearly che
only thing wanting to complete the
analogy is thumbs down. and even
that is present In spirit. In truth
the speed races do not present true
sport. but only dangerous "thrillers"
designed to draw and please sensa-
tion loving crowd.
