STICK UP FOR HOME TOWN
P~aIIy Good Citizen Is the One Whe
Has Its Interests Close to
His Heart.

There is something the matter with
the man who doesn't care for the
place he lives in; who doesn't come
back to it with some degree Of rap
ture and relief. The world citizen
who boasts that all places are alike
to him and any place is home where
he hangs his hat, misses out of his
life one of the first and strongest in
centives to decency and duty-which
is the desire to win the general esteem
and good opinion of the community
in which one dwells. There is no re-
ward in money which compares in val
ne with the golden treasure Of good
repute. If a man cheats and lies and
steals and bears false witness, he may
build up a great fortune and still be
plagued at night with the knowledge
that those about him hold a low Opin-
lon of his worth and works. Doctor
Eliot Of Harvard has told us that It
Is the favorable opinion OF a mans
home town that is worth earning and
retaining. One Of the neighbors
summation of what many are saying,
we probably shall arrive at just ~es-
innate.
Merely to live in a place doesn't
make one a citizen. Your heart will
be where your work has been put In
to help forward any good thing that
is going. Of course, one must be true
to the immediate family circle and
hook well to the rooftree and the door
yard of ones own household first of
all. But that intimate indoor devo-
ton, commendable as it is, may be-
come a selfish sentiment that takes
no thought for those measures of pub
lie welfare in whose benefits we all
share.-Philadelphi Ledger.

WINTER AND SUMMER SHRUB
Evergreen Is Recommended as the
Best of AlI-Contrasts That May
Be Made Pleasing.

Taking the United States as a whole
the average time that deciduous plants
are without foliage is at least five
months. During this period the home
is occupied as continuously as in sum-
mer and the surroundings should be
as attractive as possible, say land
scape gardeners of the United States
Department of Agriculture. Ever
green shrubs, both coniferous and
broad leaved, maintain, color
throughout the winter not otherwise
obtained. Used in moderation, they
are a distinct addition at this season.
On the other hand, many decfduous
shrubs have attractive winter char
acters, the most striking being those
bearing bright-colored berries. Then
there are barks of many shades Of
brown and gray, with some Of bright
red, green, and yellow, that if prop
erly arranged make pleasing contrasts
and add to the winter beauty.
The short blooming period Of the
average shrub makes flowers the least
important Of the characters to be con-
sidered. In spite of this the color,
character, and time Of blooming
should be considered as we'll as the
behavior of the dying flowers, whether
or not they fade to a conspicuous and
undesirable color aud hang on unduly
or pass away without distinctly I'm"

Concerning the "Knocker."

The appeal to sInite the "knocker''
unfortunately is timely almost at any
time, and in any community in the
United States. It hus been said that
all kinds Of people are required to
make the world and apparently a few
kill-joys cannot be avoided even in
comparatively small bodies of popu-
lation. Indianapolis has NO more than
it's normal proportion, although some
Of the lot may be Unfortunately ener-
getic, but even with all their activity
they arc relatively harmless. They
are more annoying than hurtful and
should be squelched more as public
nuisances than as detriments to the
community.
Such is human nature that 1t is easy
to get many people to listen to scan
dial or calumny, even though they do
not believe what is said and have no
respect for the source from which it
comes. The "knocker' generally is
pigmy-minded and has nothing to say
that would be worth hearing. His
only hope to get attention is to repeat
some bit of disparaging information
he has heard OF to malign and abuse
those whose names are sufficiently
prominent in official, business or other
circles to attract notice to his vapor-
ings.-Indianapolts Star.
