INTEREST IN A COMMUNITY.

Town and community are not
mere accidental features of the land
scape; they are indispensable factors
in producing not only the highest
but the only known civilization,
The human race can as conveniently
dispense with houses as with COM
munities. Man is a social animal
and the community is but develop
ment of mans social instincts. OF
course the community can be de-
stroyed, the rural town can be wiped
off the map; but not without a seri-
Gus loss to civilization The fact
that some persons are so shortsight-
ed as to ignore the necessity of the
community organization does not
make that necessity any the less ur.
gent, Nor does it make injuries to
the community any the less vital be-
cause the persons inhicting the in.
jurics are ignorant Of the harm they
are doing. A community gives to
each Of its citizens great many
things that they would sorely miss
if deprived Of them. In return and
for its own preservation the local
town-the nucleus Of the community
without which it would not exist
demands something from the citizen

 A clean stocking leg is fine to wipe windows and mirrors with. It will leave no line.
 By the way, how many of YOU use A piece of chamois to wash your win dows with? It's fine and so easy: they need no dry Wiping Simply take a piece of chamois and some luke warm water (not hot) and wash, your windows, rinse the chamois and wiring as dry as you can with your hands and wipe the window, that's all, and there9l be no streaks or line. and will look as bright as can be.

DAMS TRIP ACROSS
 THE CONTINENT.

Dear Social Corner Editor-Is there room for one more to be taken into the fold of Cornerites?
 l have been reading the messages in The Bulletin. and had heard of .ne helpful letters written-and as have just. arrived from the Golden State, felt as if would like to get in touch with those who hail from California. and all who write for The Corner.
 It was a. lonely home coming for me, having lost my companion in the City of the Angelsn after residing there nearly sixteen years: and E missed the bright, cheerful, and mag netfc- presence who was with me on three journeys across the Continent.
 The first day out a vaudeville troupe" of Highland lads and lassies made the time pass swiftly. At Salt stop-over privileges making our car look rather desolate. At Omaha. sev- eral more changed for St. Paul and northern points-leaYingy only four to occupy berths and to keep us company. The rain came down in torrents-ac- companied by heavy thunder, and sharp lightning, continuing for hours rather unwelcome manifestation to both sight and sound-never known in the early days of California, but of late surprising the native Californian with the Eastern conditions.
 A familiar sight, the green fields. the forests of trees as we passed through Michigan, New York and Massachusetts on down to Norwich the Rose of New England" the sum mer's not as hot-the winters not as cold as in so many sections of tSe United States.

AUNT HESTER ENJOYED THE
 LAWN PARTY,

Dear Editor and Social Corner Sis- ters:-Wfll write just a few lines to thank Aunt Abby and husband for making my day at the Lawn Party one never to be forgotten in years to come.
 Wednesday morning, August fe. the day Of Aunt Abby's Lawn Party, broke without a cloud to mar it's beauty It was very hot hardly a breeze of any Kind stirred the air; the heat kept not many Of us at home. I arrived at Aunt Aboy's early and found a few of the Sisters there. and more came on each car or by team and quite a lit- tie company of us were gathered on the lawn to enjoy the outing.
 Aunt Abby's home is on quite a view of the surrounding country. Her lawn is kept In good condition and decked with numerous shrubs and flowers and makes a beautiful and ideal spot for a home.
 At about 1:30 dinner was served on the lawn. and all kinds of sandwiches cakes and fruit danties: also coffee. and fruit lemonade were served. Games and happy greetings were ex- changed by every one. Ice cream was served in the afternoon and at 4:3O some of the Sisters who came from a distance had to bid us farewell until we meet again.
 Aunt Abby: Hope you are not feel ing tired after such a busy day as August 1s. I enjoyed 1t very much.
 Merry Widow: Hope you arrived home all right Was very glad to meet you Didn't we have a lovely time at Aunt Abby's?
 Married and Happy: Am glad you are well enough to be at home again. You will soon be strong and well again. and your ideas of your little hospital party were very good.
 Sally Sycamore: Hope you arrived home safely after leaving me at the car. Hope to meet you at the fair in September
 Rural Delivery: Well, have you re- covered from your indigestion yet2 If notr call in Doctor, she no doubt can cure you
 Crimson Rambler: I am going to write you a nice long letter some day before long.
 Peggy Ann: Receivsd your letter Friday and was real glad to hear from you.

GLAD TO MEET so MANY AT THE
 PARTY.

Dear Editor, Brothers and Sisters of the Social Corner:-I was glad to meet so many of the Social Corner Brothers and Sisters at Aunt Abby's picnic last Wednesday; and glad it was such a lovely day, for Aunt Abby made plans for a happy crowd and a pleasant day
 Merry Widow: Hope you arrived home before the shower. Will send you a card before long.
 Rural Delivery: Hope you did not get wet and wash off all those names you worked so hard to get. Suppose you are guessing yet. Hope you won't change your pen name, because it was guessed.
 Aunt Hester: will write you a letter before long as I think you can near you. or did live there; and since two deaths in family have lost all trace of the rest of the family. Hope you got home and did not get wet. I got home just ahead of the shower. thought of all Sisters at the picnic and hoped they did not get wet.
 Old Glory: You tell me when the weather gets cooler I will see she has the whipped cream cake. she read about. think the Corner recipes are all nice. Wish Farmer would send in sour cream cookie recipe for hers were fine.
 Was so busy guessing who is who" did not have much time to visit with Sally Sycamore. Eliza Jane. Aunty No. 1. Theoda, Chatterbox, Josiah Aliens Wife, Gala Lily and others.
 Billie: I hope to see letter in Corner from you soon. I think we all should heartily recommend the Doc tor, for those digestive tablets were great to relieve severe attacks of in- digestion, especially after eating all the cake, pie, cookies, peaches. water melon and last but not least the doIfofnsrc fha haGf tn he had in the land. Three cheers for Aunt Abbie. for her untiring efforts to make the Social Corner picnic a sue cess. It certainly was one long to be remembered, and I felt like singing ''Blest be the Tie that Binds," The Social Corner.
 Wish you all health and happiness
