Better TO Improve Your Present
Surroundings Than to Find Fault

Let me quote again from William
Carlton. Somehow his logic rings true
to me: He is speaking of the con-
ditions in a New England town:
DO you realize what, as business
proposition, this village is? 1t is a
big unused plant in which thousands
of dollars have been invested, and il
is lying next door to a market crying
for its products. If you saw big fac
tory building, all equipped, and with
labor loafing around the doors, stand
ing idle, with its books full of orders,
you'd jump in-wouldn't you? Well
that is exactly what this village is. )"
Get acquainted with the home pos
sibilities before going elsewhere.
Not only get acquainted, but aid
others to get acquainted with home
possibilities.

| Take an interest in your neigh
as your own"
A prosperous farmer wrote the fol
lowing letter to a farm magazine:

They will take any risk at Lloyd's in
London. 1t should be understood that
this great corporation has nothing TO

The uncle OF a rich heiress took out
a policy for 10000 guineas against her
clipping with a certain man before Il
specified date. He paid 1000 guineas
premium, and the girl did not elope. So
the broker was in 1000 guineas.
A young man sued by girl for dam
ages for breach of promise 10 marry

any amount OF money the jury might
award to the plaintiff 1t gave her
