'TAkE-lT-BACK-WEEK"
WILL BEGIN MONDAY

A Take-It-Back-W Week" has been
inaugurated in the community. 1t
will begin next Monday, December 20
and will continue all the week. You
ask what is q "Take-It-Back-W Week 2"
1t has been suggested that it might
mean a number of things. For in
stance, it might means the taking
back of an umbrella, book, a hat,
or any one of a number of things
usually exchanged by people when in
crowds. Or, it might even mean the
taking back of something offensive
you have said about someone else. 1t
might mean taking back anything
that belongs to others.
The "Take-It-Back-Week" was
sanctioned in the M. +. church last
Sunday when Rev. Doty suggested
that the "Take-It-Back" movement
might be of benefit to even the
church. 1t might cause some of the
people to take back song books they
had taken home and had left on their
pianos after learning that favorite
song.
Suppose everyone took back every
thing in his or her possession that
belongs to some friend, would not
everyone be better satisfied and
would not those same friends take
back some of the things they had
been saying about the tardy borrow
err? Really don't you believe the
"take back" idea practiced for just
one week would be great boon to
the community?
incidentally we might say that an
other movement is simmering and
there are many indications that it
will break forth about the first week
in January. This movement is
known as the "Pay-Up- Week" Keep
your ear open about this new one and
maybe you can hear something about
it from your associates.
