THE WAY TO DO IT.

THE WAY TO DO 1T.
The editor of this paper is mem
ber of the Kiwanis club in Newberry.
We do not know much about the or
eanization and we are sorry to make
the admission. Unfortunately for US
we have been to only one gathering
of the club, and that was when the
charter was accepted, and that was
q fine meeting and we enjoyed the
supper and the speeches. We receive
and read the Kiwanis magazine and
there are some mighty clever and
useful things in this magazine. We
hope all the members read it.
We have had several invitations &c
the weekly feasts of the club but IN
fortunately for US have not been able
to get to any of them. We believs
that a good way to get fellows tc
work together and to do things IT
harmony is to feed together, or as we
have been in the habit of putting i.
on several occasions, it is good to1
the people of the same community to
put their feet under the same table
occasionally. And to feed them
selves together, and that is what this
club is doing. And it is good
thing, but these good things should
lead to other good things, or they
fail to accomplish the purpose O.
their being. as we interpret the pur-
pose.
Now, in the last issue Of the HI
wants magazine there is an lliustrat-
ed article relating to the way the WI
mona, Mimi, Kiwanis club does
things. There are two pictures to
the article, the one showing the club
at ease on the grass, and the other
showing them in overails. Spade ane
pick in hand. The story is short a.
this club builds and does not pass
resolutions, and believes that a.:
ounce of action is worth a ton OF
theories. Here is the story:
Gone of the roads leading into WI.
mona was not what it should be. Die
Winona Kiwanis club pass a set @
resolutions about it? They did not
Sixty out of the S5 members OF the
club donned overalls, went out with
picks, ashovels and teams and literally
Scratched gravel to the extent tha?
when the bee was over they hat

: They pegan with a lunch at noon
Kinwanian Cohn had charge Of tho
lunch, Kiwanian Schmitt provided y
gallons of buttermilk and Klwanla;
Goldsmith supplied every man WITT
a clay dudeen and enough tobacco te
keep it glowing.
sIt was a. fine picnic, every one
had a splendid time and a few bis
tiers, but the bad spot in the roac
was fixed in one afternoon and 9
good example set to the city fathers.
Now there are several bad places
in the roads hereabout, and maybe
the Newberry Kiwanians will be giac
to set good example.
But the point we wanted to maks
is that by a little cooperation anc
some self help we can accomplish :
great many good things that not only
help us but do great deal for the
community.
That is what we have been trying
to saw about little stretch Of road
from Newberry to Prosperity. Just
a little of the Winona Kiwanis spirit,
not with the actual use of the pick
and shovel, though that would be a
good thing, but just a little of the
spirit of cooperation and not afraid
that some one else would enjoy trave!
on this road who perchance had mot
contributed to the working of it, anG
the thing is done, and there is a gooc
road between the towns. Don't wait
for some one else to lead. Get TO-
gether and start out. How about 1t
Kiwanians of Newberry? Get out
and do something really worth while,
not that you have not already done
something, but do something that
every one will take note.

We think this is the name. II
