CIVIC PRIDE AND
 CIVIC REBUILDING

Mccarthy is in the midst of a good sized building boom,
 Two or three new buildings have been erected while a dozen or more have altered or enlarged.
 This boom has been the dir. ect result of a little civic pride and unselfish thoughtfulness in the putting on the market of a considerable quantity of good lumb at price that does not make one throw up his hands in holy horror, and the buildings stand as a permanent and use ful monument to this thought fitness.
 Mccarthy might well take heed of this little object lessen. Civic pride has long bee. notice able by it's absence and it is high time that we spared a lit e thought from our own pleasures and well being to consider the town cole .tively with a view to it's betterment and future pros peritS -perhal to it's future existence.
 This can only be accom- plish ed by submerging selfish inter estS Tn the interest of the con. mon good.
