II Isn't Your Town-It's You

If you want to live in the kline
of a town like the kind OF {
town you like,
You needn' slip your clthes in a
grip and start on a long, long
hike.
You'll only find what you left
behind, for there's nothing
that's really new.
It's a knock at yourself when
you knock your town. ltisnt
your town-its you.
Real towns are not made by men
afraid lest somebody else gets
ahead.
When everybody works and no.
body shirks you can raise a
town from the dead;
And if while you. make your
personal stake your neighbor
can make one, too,
Your town will be what you
want to see. It isn't your
town-it's 5 YOU!

Ramey, who live in the upper
section of this county, had the
misfortune to get his foot badly
cut with an axe one day last

It required several stitches to
sew the wound up, but the little
fellow is now getting along all
right.
