Answer those questions in satisfactory manner and
you will performed wonderful service for your community
There many ways improving city and its adjacent
countryside but probably the best will be found through
spirit cooperation There many people who have ideas

mand, neither they all be worked out at
The obvious thing to do to get various ideas together
lmegh where they be scrunzed for objec
where they be ranged side by side and
weighed the dsrabty and feasibility This done should
easy decide upon the single suggested improve
which would be of greatest benefit to all Of people
With question answered would be face to face with the
problem of how that suggested improvement into

Again will into play the various ideas Of people who

along lines much similar to those suggested above
1t makes difference from whose brain the original idea
