Community Cooperation
COPYRIGHTED FARM AND RANcH-HOLLANDS MAGAZINE

The degree of satisfaction we get
out of life depends very largely upon
the community in which we live.
Whatever of advantages the commu-
nifty possesses we enjoy, while, to
whatever extent the community is
poor in public utilities, we who make
up its population are circumscribed
in the pleasure of living. His is the
most satisfying life who lives in a
well-equipped community and who is
part of a congenial population. For
most of us the community must have,
as a minimum equipment, strong
church advantages, good school,
good roads easy communication with
the world, and adequate shopping and
marketing facilities. These are all
community institutions, not individ-

1t is an old saying, but true enough
to repeat, that the individual gets out
of the community no more than he
puts into it. Selfishness, therefore,
is mans most effective bar to his
own happiness. l must be willing for
every other person in the community

money of patronage, we each enjoy

been much impressed at first, for she
