IDEA is WORTH EMULATING
Public Spirit Shown by Citizens OF
Michigan Village Should Be IN
centive to Others.

AT the next resort and tourist meet
Ing the name of the village of Mon
tague should be inscribed as the Abou
Ben Adhem on the good book. Along
the lake is an excellent park space
which Montague has decided to i'm
prove. But the innovation is the way
this village has gone about 1t.
A legal holiday was declared, and
almost every man in town hustled
down to the park with shovels and
rakes, drays and trucks, filling in low
ground along the shore in preparation
for a big tree planting at other SIM
lar holidays in the near future. And
all the ladies served their sons and
squires and sweethearts with hot cof-
fee and sandwiches to keep them on
the job and u%nfatigued. 1t was an
arbor day de luxe. More of them are
scheduled until the park becomes
something tourists will talk about all
the way up and all the way back.
If every town which could be a
thing of beauty instead Of a main
street and scatter Of sheds would go
In for the spirit of Montague and for
a good, healthy spell of tree planting
and general cleaning up, Sinclair

TOWN -.
TO DEVELOP SAMPLE TOWN"
No Really Great Problems to Be Solved
in the Establishment Of Model
Community.

When we have studied our existing
towns, g~eneralizing from numbers and
showing the best We have done 80
far; when We have taken hold with
4 will to make such improvements as
we can In our stubborn. old-established
towns, a great new social service can
be done by developing u sample
town."
This sample town should appear to
be a perfectly ordinary industrial
town, preferably with some new fac
tory with its employees placed where
It could have land or water cOmmuni-
cation with the rest Of us. 1t should
have an agricultural base in the sur
rounding country, as any town does
after a fashion. Then the problem to
be worked out would be the economic
balance between local supplies, which
W in transportation, and such I'M
ported supplies as might save in other
ways.
A good kindergarten and school
ought to have 20 children ut least,
properly to use two tirst-ciass teach

Der of children requires about 700
women, since about ten women Is the
average number required to supply
one child a year. Two hundred fam
HES means about Il thousand persons,
a good number to base Il calculations
upon; and POO houses, grouped about
their necessary public buildings, form
d very pleasant little village.
One central building, economical, but
beautiful, could house many of these.
All should be grouped conveniently
about a pleasant little park.
The economic problem to be worked
out IS something like this: How FEW
persons out of our 400 adults are SUI
hcient to do work not Immediately pro
ductive. such as cooking, teaching.

library? How much must be earned

Proper Care of Hedges.

If you have a privet hedge which
Is showing the effects of age you can
renew 1t by cutting it back hard. This
seems like drastic treatment, but new
wood will soon begin to grow, and
within three years your hedge will be
as fine us ever. You can cut it back
to within a foot Of the ground without
doing any harm, but as 500 as it be-
gins to grow again 1t ought to have
a good dressing Of well-rOtted manure
or a liberal application Of pulverized
sheep manure, dug into the ground.
Many people let their prlyet hedges
grow too tall for best effects. They
look most attractive when about three
feet high, especially If they are kept
well trimmed so that they always have
a symmetrical appearance,

"Gladly will I come and play with

"We've made up some nice, new wa

"Good!" said Mother Otter. "Ill

And she did. She played with them
all of the afternoon and there was
the greatest splashing and playing and
fun-making that afternoon.
Mother Otter" said the little OF
tiers, you are such fun to play with,
Its nice to have a mother who will
play, too"
II don't think a mother should be
otherwise" said Mother Otter. "And
a mother who won't play with her
children isn't the sort of a mother
who will be a real companion to her
children as Mother Otter will always
be.
"Of course there are times when
mothers are busy and cannot play.
But when they aren't busy they should
be glad to play with their children.
Mother Sea Otter always is"
"She always u.s." the children
agreed. "And we're always so glad tc
have her play with u.s."
YES" said Mother Sea Otter, "the
mother who plays with her children
is the mother who is happiest, for she
Is not only loved as a mother but she
is loved as a playmate, too. / love Sc
to be a playmate to my dear Otter
children. l so love that"
"Yes," said the children, I've know
you do, and, Mother Otter, your chill
dren love you so. They think you are
the dearest Mother Otter In all the
world.
"They know that you are the one
who has taught them to dive so we'll
and what fun ii Is to dive!"
ut is good to know how to dive,

danger is near you can dive deep
down into the water to safety.

make friends too easily, for you don't
want to have your fur taken away
from you and sold!
Mother Otter doesn't want that Il
