Ten Years N9n1n$errThan His Years

Doesn't 1t make you feel good-cause you to straight en up and feel "chesty"- when someone guesses your age at ten ye ars or SO younger than you really are? You look into your mirror, smile with satisfac- tion and say to yourself: "Wep, he didn't make such a bad guess, at that"
 The point is: You're no older than your vitality.
 If a man is strong, vigor- ous, mentally alert, fine and fit at 50 he has a better chance of living up to 80 than a man of 30 who is weak and rundown has of living up to 60. While none or us can stay tne years nor stop time, we should all make an heroic effort to sue cessfully resist the effect, of time by ever keeping oul vitality at par.
 When you sense a feeling of slowing down of your physical forces when your stomach. liver, kidneys and other organs show signs of weakness-when you notice 8 lack of your old time "pep'' and "punch"-i in other words, when you feel your vitality is or the wanes you should com

For Good of
 the Community

WHAT is community? e2 It is all the
 w people; the whole heart, mind, body and soul of a people.
 What is that community entitled to? The very best that it's united strength of mind, body, heart, soul and resources can afford.
 '! Is the community level ipso facto lower Ethan that of portions of the community? EIt is not, because the highest up depends kon the lowest down to keep him up. None Brides above the community in which he klives. Some have attempted 1t to their fEgrief. The atmosphere above is too rari- Flied for comfortable existence.
 iE Last Sundays Community Sing? It kmunity for excellence in whatever is I offered in their name. The singing was good, the orchestra was good, the leader ship was good, the setting was neat, nifty and tasteful, the mass of men, women and children of all ages well-dressed and or derly, enthusiastic and happy
 The Creator was never worshiped with nearer approach to spontaneity in it's ten der. The dear old songs were sung Justify and with musical correctness. The effect of the several years of training at the park open air concerts and the indoor sings is
 r-illinoness to sing and confidence in lo4+ino the voice go forth with full-throat- ed vigor The old songs have become familiar again The mellowness of past generations is being invoked on the peo- pie that are now.
 In the small orchestra of twenty pieces there is nucleus of what may be made into one of which the city may feel proud. The members of the orchestra are good musi- clans and they play we'll what they play. The orchestra gives background to the sing. It completes the harmony of the sing and lends it body and substance as well as variety.
 The Community Sing has reached that point where 1t is worthy of the city It is worthy of the mass impulse of the com munity to vent itself in vocal expression and enjoy the beauty of sound of instfu- ment looking into one another's eyes and catching the spark of inspiration as it fits from one to the other.
 Those who have stood by the Commun- ity Sing through the several years of it's struggle have won. There have been times when the Sing was lean and skimpy and those who had it most at heart knew that it was not up to standard But they pulled and worked and worked and pulled The delighted crowds at the Lyric these Sun day afternoons acclaim them blessed for. the fruits of their effort. a
 And the point is this: When the com munity is at stake, the greatest interest of every man, woman and child in the com munity hangs in the balance. What the community needs as a community is the most important need. Again, communi- ties can have everything needed when the community makes up it's mind that it needs it and goes out to get it.
