1t is announced that the temper
ance forces of Canada are to focus
their attention upon work in the
Province of Quebec. There is much
light talk, both here and in Canada
about the thirst of Americans pay
ing the Canadian war debt, but the
fact is the thinking people of Canada
are ashamed of Quebec and the whole
of North America, north of the Me-
lean border, is pointing with shame
to that one really wet district. If the
temperance forces of North America
would spend their energies in the
Province of Quebec for the next year
or so. there would soon come dry

tions along the border in New Eng
land and New York

Who Makes This Town?

1t isn't any one man, or any half
dozen, or dozen. 1t is every person in
the town, as we'll as those who make
a practice of coming to the town.
We have citizens who are so modest
and retiring that they imagine their
influence is of no value, or has no
weight-that it makes no difference
to the town what they do or not do.
They are mistaken.
We have become so accustomed to
the progressive citizen that we expect
to hear from him on any subject of
any Importance. We would be more
or less nonplused if he did not come
to the front.
But it is the action of the quiet and
retiring element that adds impetus
and puts real life into movement for
civic Improvement. They may not as
sumo to be leaders, but when they
~nt behind and push the weight is so
great there is no such thing as pre-
mature halt.
Little wavelets tapping up on the
seashore always precede the great
tidal wave that sweeps everything
before it.
1t is so in community life.
In each community there are few
who are always promptly active in
every good movement. They are the
little waves that never rest, that are
ever creeping up on the beach, alvanc-
in~ and receding, necessarily on the
move until they create that great wave
Of public sentiment that moves ire
sistibly on to victory and achievement.
1t is the mass of quiet citizens who
constitute the bulk of that public
sentiment. 1t is the citizen who posi-
bly, thinks that his own individual
opinion has but little influence upon
community life. It is the one who
acts after others have talked.
You, therefore, are one Of the num-
Der who make this town.
You are expected to aid in making
it even a better town.
You can do it, if you will.

1t is said large deposits of tale

Our good neighbor, the Bristol Her

the event of the nomination and cleo

end of his tenure in Office is in sight

eff the Reporter desires to brighten
Commissioner Brigham into becoming
a candidate for governor with an i'm
piled threat that he will be deposed
as commissioner of agriculture in
the event of the election of Mr..

believe that the Springfield newspa-

There is business lesson in the appraisers

This great merchant owned about $500, 900 in
bank stocks and about S15OOOO in railroad
stocks The remainder Of his business invest
ments, amounting to more than S25, 900, 900, was
in his own enterprises. .~>
1t was not that he lacked confidence in other
mems Judgment, but that he had consuming
passion for his own business. He built it up
from nothing. AS il grew he returned the profits
to make it grow the more. He had faith in his
own business and was content to have practi-
cally all his wealth tied up in enterprises which
he himself directed.
One thing that this country needs just now is
spread of the Woolworth attitude among bust
ness men. Some of them lost genuine fighting
interest in their own enterprises when the war
made things too easy for them. Some of them,
believing that their plants could run without
their constant attention, began to play other
mems business games in the stock market.
