IMMUNITY BETTERMENT.
A Chamber of Commerce That Is Car
rying Out Some Practical Ideas.

In its continuous campaign in the
best interests of Manitowoc and its
people the Manitowoc (VNis.) chamber
Of m has recently been en-
ploying some unusual methods which
are found to bring satisfactory results,
a G. j. Primm, secretary of the
Manitowoc chamber of commerce, in
the Town Development Magazine.
One of these was the use of a leaf
let addressed ITO Every Housekeeper.
Manitowoc, Wis" A leafet was hand
ed to each ~housekeeper in the city by
a high school student, the students or
ganizing for the purposes of making
a direct appeal to the housewife to
purchase Manitowoc goods from Man.
itowoc dealers and to call upon Man
itowoc professional help when profess
sional help was needed. The house
keeper was asked to write the cham
Der Of commerce, setting forth her
views on the matter and giving assur-
ance of her willingness to aid Manito-
woe In any way possible. The leafet
also contained pertinent information
regarding the city and what 1t pre-
duces.
One of the leading move In a spe
cial campaign made by Manitowoc to
tie the people of the county and city
together was through the publishing
and distribution of a mercantile and
professional directory. Participation
In this directory In the way of adver-
Using was voluntary and cooperative,
the entire cost being divided pro rata
after the book was issued. This di-
rectory was given wide circulation in
city and county.
Another work recently carried
through successfully was the county
road superintendent convention, held
at Manitowoc. OF the 300 or more
road superintendent in the county
over 200 attended the convention. The
meeting proved a real impetus for the
good road movement in the county,
and 1t was decided to make 1t an an
nual affair. The subjects discussed
were practical ones, having to do with
road improvement in the county, and
those participating in the discussions
were the men who have this work In
hand all the year through.
Continuing its community better
ment campaign, the Manltowoc cham
Der of is now working to
provide a large available supply of
low priced electric power for manufac-
turers, is leading in a fight against
proposed excessive freight rate in
creases, is sponsoring new home build
ing operations to supply up to date
homes at low cost to hundreds of
workingmen's families and is discuss
ing and proposing legislation affecting
the interests of the community.

A TOWNS AWAKENING.
Little Village Demonstrates the Work
BEING Done by County Association.

A shining example of what the
Greater CASTOR County association Is
doing for small towns in North Caro-
lima is furnished by the recent commu-
nifty progress meeting held In Dallas,
n. c., a town of LOO people, says the
Town Development Magazine.
Dallas had never had any sort of
commercial organization; the people
had never shown anything approach
ing public spirit; the town itself was
practically unknown. Following out
its plan of town awakening, the Great
err CASTOR County association sent rep
resentatives to Dallas to organize a
chamber of commerce for the village.
At the community progress meeting
there were present $50 residents of
Dallas, and for three hours close at
tention was given to the discussion of
the possessions and possibilities of Dali
las from the community viewpoint. A
feature of the occasion was the sing
ing by a hundred school children of a
special Dallas song prepared by the
school.
Since the organization of their cham
Der of commerce the people of Dallas
have already begun TO realize the ne
cessity of cooperating in the interests
of their town and have begun to put
this realization into practice. This is
a sample of the small town work be-
ing done In CASTOR county. In three
months six little communities have
11o- ,xr.J-o,.oI - 4hOir ,N-nor.;Ii1
tiles and possibilities that already
some of them are putting in sewerage,
paving streets and sidewalks, provid-
ing fire protection and making other
municipal improvements.

Is rather erroneous. To the average
mind it suggests the quest of pleasure
or sport. The subject of recreation has
many phases. 1t is really a question of
leisure. Nanny desire to spend their
leisure otherwise than at games, enter
tainments, etc. Sewing, cooking, mil
linery, needlework, mechanical draw
ing, literary study, music, dramatic
work, debating, civic study and discus
sion, are desired by many for a portion
of the time, thus making the problem
one of providing wholesome recreation
that is semieducational and in some
cases wholly educational in nature.
With this conception of leisure, seven
Milwaukee schools and one special
building are at present being used as
social centers, while nine other schools
are being used for evening schools
which may conduct special recreational
activities if desired. No formal de-
mands were made by citizens for the
location of these social centers. The
movement being a new one and its
possibilities and values being at the
Oi1lC ulihllOhA III III Sc6llleu W are
to take the responsibility of rousing a
neighborhood sentiment for a social
center.
The wider use of the school plant
was achieved on the strength of the
state law which authorizes school
boards to establish and maintain spe-
cial activities, such as evening schools,
social c%enters, library branches, ETC.,
by means of a special two-tenths of a
mill tax, providing the question has
passed at a referendum of the people.
Milwaukee adopted the policy of
using it's schools for social centers, be-
lieving that supervision of recreation is
an educational problem and that civic
economy demands a more open use of
the public schools. The schoolhouse is
usually the neighboring center from a
geographical standpoint. 1t ought also
to be the focal point of the neighbor-
hood from a civic and community
standpoint. This can easily be accom-
plished through a social center housed
in the school building and run in con-
nection with it, for such a center has
at It's command hundreds of the worlds
best Observation-Disclosures Each social
center In Milwaukee issues a weekly
newspaper which is carried into the
homes by the children of the regular
day school. A social center proves it.
self a marvellous connecting link be-
tween the school and the home-a link
sadly missing in many educational
systems.

Convention Results In Cincinnati.

In 1914 the Cincinnati (O.) chamber
of commerce raised a fund of 100000
to promote the business of attracting.
conventions to the Queen City and to
carry on the work of the publicity and
convention bureau. At that time the
chamber promised that in the space of
three years it would secure from 100
to $50 conventions for Cincinnati. The
three year period has just ended, and
attention Is called to the fact that this
bureau of the chamber secured for Gin
cinnati GO conventions in 1914, 1903 n:
1915 and 100 In 1915, a total Of 2S3.

We in Milwaukee have not spent
much time in discussing the question

the emphasis should be placed upon

their presence will sooner or later at

Arousina the People.

A unique plan for promoting a city
has been evolved at Gallon, O., by the
chamber of commerce. A large cash
prize was offered to the citizen who
could furnish the best plan for getting
the entire citizenship to promoting Gal
ion. AS a result, meetings were held
in the factories to enlist every work
man to talk and advertise Gallon.
The chamber of commerce has estab-
lished a speakers bureau. Results are
already being shown, for Gallon people
are being awakened to the opportuni-
ties, and every one Is becoming a sales
man for the town.

Men Afflicted With

TT has been recognized for a long

is not so widely recognized proba-
bly,, but equally true, that men with

1t is interesting to note the
change in the attitude that has tax
en- place in regard to the so called

called criminal was supposed to be
just bad and vicious, the so called
coward in armies has likewise been
considered a thing of ignominy, and
just as careful examination and
study of the personality of criminals
in police and prison laboratories has
shown that many criminals are SO
largely because of factors which they
cannot control on account of nerv-
