GOOD AND BAD CITIES

A city or community is no better
and no worse than the people who
live in it.
If 1t is a good city or a commu-
nifty it is because good people live
there. If it is bad city or bad
community it is because bad people
live there.
II city or community is noted
for lawlessness, IL is because the
people who live there are either law
less or given to vice or are willing
for that condition to exist.
So that when an effort is to be
made to make a city or a community
better, the first step is to make the
people better.
A city, community. is made up
of individuals, and the character OF
the city or community is established
by striking an average as to the
character Of the individuals living
there.
mans reputation is made by his
acts-Dy MS daily life. The same
thing is true of city or commu-
nifty
GooL people may live in a bad
city, but if the reputation of the
city is bad it is sure sign that
the good people are in a minority.
the god people are In a minority
1t is also sign that the COOL
people have not been very active in
asserting themselves. For whenever
they try, the good people can take
charge OF things; they can go to
work and make their city a good
city.
If city remains bad, it is because
the people who make up the city
are not putting fort the efforts to
make il good city.-Anderso Mail

community sooner or later will rebel
against any institution within its
borders which is allied with the
gambler, the prostitute and the cleo

tries to make men drink too much.
And then tries to hold its place in the
community by an alliance with vice.
SO men quit drinking, and they vote
against the saloon as the first step in
selt-defense and civic righteousness.
Every election sees the dry terri

oLD-FASHIONED VIRTUES

In the old homes and in the old
sthool-roms there bloomed a nosegav
OF oid-fashioneG virtues as sweet as
4 nosegay of heliotrope and mignon-
ette,' Grace Latimer Jones once
wrote in the Woman's Home Com
panion. These virtues were obedi-
ence, fortitude, diligence, reverence,
courtesy, simplicity and thrift.
If these virtues are indeed "out
oil fashion with children, or their
elders, it is great pity, and some
body should try to bring them back
into style
The children of long ago were
taught to obey. They were better SOL
d:ers than those of to-day. When the
order to march is given, the soldier
obeys, without asking the reason for
the command, or complaining that
he is weary
The children of long ago had the
virtue called fortitude. They sat on
hard, wooden benches at school and
studied books that bore small re-
semblance to the attractive school
books of to-day. I'm describing that
hard voyage OF the Pilgrims, mad,

ernor Winthrop proudly remarks that

The children of long ego were

show no respect for those in author
ity, deface public buildings, ETC.. they
are lacking in reverance. Life is a
commonplace thing without rever-
ance in the heart to make il worth
while. To the reverent soul there
is worth and dignity in the small
tasks of every day, and life itself is
a wonderful thing.
Let us not neglect, with all our
teaching. to teach good manners.
Not many Of us are in danger of
being too courteous to others. Give
even little boy something definite
to do and say when he is to appear
in public. Make him feel that he has
his own modest role to play well or
i'll. Teach him a formula with which
to greet the conner. One can scarcely
be too explicit in directions to the
young. Lucia b. Cook, in Southern
School News.
