come q decent man and useful citi-
zen. Eighty-five per cent of the pris-
oners in your county Jail are litter

good education and start him on the
road to decency and success than to
allow him to remain an illiterate, be-
come criminal and execute him for
his crime.
You Have Sincere Respect for the
| Church
Even if you are not a member of
church, you are going to recognize it
as one of the greatest institutions for
promoting the religious and moral well
fare of your town, and you are going
to attend service at least occasionally
out of respect for the minister, and
because you want him to know you
endorse the things he stands for in
your community.
You Will Back Up tho Chautauaua
You are going to be strong for the
Chautauqua because you realize that
unless your young people, as we'll as
your older people, are provided the
opportunity for this sort of whole
some, clean and elevating recreation
and entertainment, people with lower
ideals are going to bring in amuse-
ments of the sort that tend to demor-
alize and degrade.
You Believe in Pulling Together"
You will be leader in promoting
community cooperation, which is
simply "geting together and pulling
together" realizing that dozen de-
termined business men who will lay
aside petty self-interest and work to-
gether for the general good will "put
your town on the map" and keep it
there.
You Radiate Enthusiasm and Inspire
Progress.
Your town may be very small, but
if it has a few citizens of your cali
Der it is bound to grow, for your
young men and young women will
realize that in the process of COM
munity development, in the making
of better schools, in the building of
better roads, in introducing better
methods of agriculture, in improving
the facilities for merchandising, and
in the launching of new manufacture
ing enterprises there will be abundant
opportunity for them to achieve,
within the very sight of the old
Home, Sweet Home," Just as splen-
did and successful careers as any
great city in this country could offer
them.
You Have a Warm Heart and Wise
Head.
Your fellow-men always extend
you the open hand, for you never
thrust at them the closed fist. The
corners of your mouth turn up in
stead of down. You radiate cordial
ity because your heart is warm. The
young men come to you for counsel
concerning their plans. The unfor-
tunate come to you for a solution of
their problems. The little children
love you because you understand
them.
You Are a Citizen Any Town Will Be
Proud of.
