 They were very much interested to learn of the forward movemehtg talk ing place in the Grannisi community in the development of the fruit and truck growing industries, and they may be counted on to cooperate with the Grapnis folks in every way that will make for greater development.

The Star believes those business concerns and citizens who are giving aid to the establishment of a baseball team here are rendering service to tho town.
 First, they are stimulating an in terest in sport that is recognized as healthful, clean and manly in every cline where it is known.
 Second, they are advertising Mena abroad getting the peoples of other towns interested more or less in Mena--a thing we'll worth while.
 And, one thoughtful citizen, in dis eussing the idea, stated that the one thing that Mena needs more than any thing else, is the Mena spirit-that spirit that stands out boldly for our own, that spirit that causes us to take a prideful interest in our town and community.
 And live baseball team, properly supported, will do some of these things.
 There is no doubt but this lack of home spirit has had lot to do with the backwardness of our state. Too many of our people have gone about with the spirit of apologizing because  they lived in Arkansas-the most sickening attitude, and one as little justified as anything that ever exist ed, but it has had it's effect.
 A man but recently returned from California, in summarizing what he believed was the greatest element ir making that state great, gave it about like this:
 Approach any native son" in any part of the state and he will unhesi tatingly declare that California is the greatest state in the nation, anC the finest country on the earth" anc then, with especial emphasis, "Righi here is the very choicest spot in Cali fornial"
 That's pride and confidence and op timism and loyalty, and it is such, ol the lack of it, that makes or break. almost any community.
 And, here we are--back to Mena And we dc know that it is wonder fully fine place, splendidly and beau tifully located, with advantages fan ahead of most spots on earth.
 But we have but a weak conception of a real "Mena spirit"
 And that baseball team may hell develop it--all to our good.
