| taught to know that his own inter-
| ests are amply served; that even his
| selfish AIMS, If they do not conflict
with the rights of others, can be bet
ter accomplished by cooperation
with and not antagonism to society.
Returning to consideration OF
the community, and using the. reason
that is born Of all experience. testi-
fed to by all history, certified by
science and demonstrated thous-
and tines every day within the per-
view Of our own existence, we can
see that mankind cam be held to-
gether for any reason only through
an appeal to his inherited and cult
waited desire to advance. The COM
munity assem- bly-of houses, of bust
ness, of public and private relation
ship, OF individual and collective in
terests-is best but<a loosely WOW
en- fabric and can either be destroyed
by slow. almost inperceptible in
action which koneycombs 1t with
selfishness and ignorance, or it can
be srupted 10y single calamity.
In seeking to understand commu-
nifty it must be approached from the
standpoint of it's condition at the
time it is to be studied. Commune
ties within a few miles of each other
present strong contrasts. In one a
h gh state Of development obtains,
in another moribund condition ex-
lists There will be the constructive
element in one and the destructive
in the other, and the only method
by which the general condition can
be disclosed is by averaging the n
tel gence. Few appreciate the ire
mendous motive power of COM
munity when it is once understood
and that understanding has been
brought home to its own. The great
est need of the average community
is not that it should boost itself to
the world. but that it should boo3t
itself to itself and understand itself
1t is not remote or impossible
comparison to say that if communi-
~ were to use one-tenth of it's power
in a collective effort it would advance
fifty per cent. 1t could astonish the
world with an example of 1NTENSI-

COMMUNITY SOCIETY.
part Two)

| (Part TWO)
| Continuing our article of last
| week, we see that it has been pos
| s--ble for man to progress only after
| he has become a social being and
only after he consented to relin-
quish certain natural rights for GER
tain unnatural benefits. We find
further that in just such proper
ton as he was willing to part with
his natural prerogatiyes did he OBJ
tain a larger proportion of social
protection in return.
Reducing this truth to its last
analysis and bringing it down thru
the course Of all races to the ordi-
nary everyday community life Of
our present time, we find the funda-
mental principles still true. viz:
That even as it was among the saw
ages and aborigines it is among the
people of today, cooperation is the
beginning of greater civilization. AS
this evolution has taken place and
man has been taught that when he
lives for others others live for him,
which is really the meat OF social
integrity, happiness has come, en-
l1Sut6uuelL mas U1OuSuI 1AAuCuSC,
prosperity has smiled and content
ment has taken up her abode.
The same elements that are in
primeval man are in the men OF to-
day, held in check only by intelli-
gence; for when the man of today,
stirred by his animal nature, loses
control of his mentality, he reyerts,
in the wink of an eye, to barbarism,
as is evinced in altogether too many
lamentable acts against the welfare
of society. The fact demonstrates
that, society is child of the mind,
ever a trial, superficial barrier that
will hold only so long as society can
dictate the intelligence of the fact,
and hold in check, through educa-
ton, the degenerating tendencies in
the natural man. In analyz'ng
community, even in these later days
of so called advanced civilization,
intelligence must take into consid-
GRAFTON the rudiments Of human ma
ture, and appeal to the man to keep
alive the social. even fraternal, in
stinct that first brought men to-
gether and has held them together.
Each individual must be induced
to view his relations with other in

IANN ARBOR HANDS
| TIGERS 4 PITCHER
SAYS ONE RNZICKA OF e. OF
NJ. HAS SIGNED
HERE.

According to dispatch from Ann
Arbor to Chicago newspapers, Ed
ward Ruzieka, said to be a youth
OF whom Coach Lundgren was
banking heavily as mainstay of
his pitching staff, has yielded to the
lire of gold, and has signed q
contract TO pitch for the Detroit
club. 1t is not made plain whether
he is expected to take the training
trip, to report at the close Of the
college year.
Nothing has been said about Ru-
zicka at the Detroit club offices
He pitched for Harrison high, of
Chicago, before going to Ann Arbor.
II he signed, he is through as a
Michigan prospect unless some one
pulls another Sisler, which isn't
likely, with no Federal league
operating, and the national COM
mission once more making it's de-
cisions according to base ball law
and presidents.
One switch has been made in
the spring exhibition plans for the
Tigers. They were scheduled to
play in Toledo on Monday and
Tuesday, April and 10. The sea-
son opens the next day. It has
been decided best to let the squad
have day at home, with work
CIT at Navin field So the Tues
day game is cancelled. Some Of
the players will come right thru
from Kansas City, and those who
are held for the Toledo game viii
come to Detroist on Monday night.
Another dispatch says Mrs. An
re Ruzicka did not raise her boy
to be a big Lacquer and for that
reason Eddie Ruzieka, recently
signed with Detroit probably will
rot appear in Tiger uniform this
spring.
Ruzicka, who Is only IT, Is a
student in the University of Mich
igan and has an enviable record
in amateur baseball circles in Chi
cago. He was picked UP by Tiger
scout and the first news of his
having signed a contract reached
his mother today
Not until he is through the
university" was Mrs. Ruzieka's de-
eision.

Beekeeprs' Notice.

Attention is hereby called, to such
beekeepers in Ellis county as are not
keeping their bees in movable frame
hives, TO Regulation No. I of the
state entomologist, which regulation
has been issued from the Texas Ag-
rieultural Experiment Station as Cir
cular II, and is now available in Cir
cular II.
This regulation gives due notice
that all bees in Ellis county should
be transferred from gums to nova
BILE frame hives by July /, 1916. Sec
ton 3 of the Foul Brood Law OF
Texas gives to these regulations the
force and effect of the law. Sec
ton IA of this law makes it posi-
bic to deal with bees In gums, and
attention is called to Section 16 of
the law which Is in effect that If the
owner of bees does not transfer pro-
vision is made for the county apiary
inspector, as representative OF the
state entomologist. to make the
transfer, but the cost of the mate
rails and time consumed in making
this transfer must be stood by the
of the bees.
II would therefore seem advisable
for all beekeepers who now have
their bees in gums to provide them
selves with equipment foar transfer
ring and to make such transfers be-
fore legal proceedings are taken up
AGAINST same. r. p. PADDOCK.
