deavoring to bring into each com

est Drawback of The West.

Ii is evident everywhere and in
everything of public interest. Then
there Is another drawback that 60
es hand in hand with jealousy and
selflshness, that is lack of confidence
and mistrust in our neighbors and
those in each community that un-
selnShly strive to overcome the
above stated handicap to progress.
There is constant strife and con
tentlon which is more than diff
ference in opinion which should not
only be expected but respected, each
individual in each locality, whether
she or he lives there Of choice or
unavoidably should take a broader
view of the part they play in devel-
oping the community they live in for
no matter how small or unimport-
ant they may think themselves, new
ertheless they are one unit, many Of
which go to make a whole; so many
think that their towns is all that a
community needs, when the fact is
the community makes the town pos
sible. How many know that without
thriving community there can be
no community center? It is evident
that cities and towns stand in their
own way Of progress by and through
the individual selfishness and jeal-
ousy of one another and of neighbor-
ing towns.
Then there is another reason for
lack of cooperation in making each
community and town attractive
enough to draw the prospective
farmer or business man and that is
the willingness of local people to
let the railroads boost their own
town, which was possible because of
the added patrchage the railroads
received in passengers and freight
traffic during the booming of each
community. The Railroad Company
gave great amount of publicity and
encouragement to prospects and
brought in to each community many
permanent settlers, but they have
used up these resources there is now
a noticeable lack of visitors coming
by rail, mostly because of the poor
cooperation with the railroad, yet
the Railroad Companies are doing
more than their share and they can
do little more. There is no uues-
ton but that change is taking
place and each community center
must now look to the highways and
the broader use of the family car
