and that the MONDAY luncheons will
be permanent feature, as one of the
leading activities of the community's
enterprise. A great deal of benefit
can be derived from these luncheons
if given the proper support. but the
man who stays away and says: "Oh,
they never do anything" is only plac-
ing an obstacle in the way of the
community's progress. It's certain
there would be nothing accomplished
if everybody assumed that attitude.
An hour each week spent around the
festive table with your fellow towns
men, discussing matters of interest
pertaining to the community's welfare
won't do any harm, and there is lots
