COURTESY WEEKS


Courtesy Week. IN Key West was distinctly
successfuF and that is saying great deal, con-
siderins the fact that people in this city are the
most courteous in the world at all times. But it is
well for people occasionally to make unusual eff
forts to be polite and obging for certain periods
OF time. It may attract those who consider courtesy
lightly to its beauties and the pleasure that it
brings
Courtesy is the greatest. the most valuable
thing known, yet it costs absolutely nothing.
Courtesy always pays when practiced sincerely. At
the same time it is wonderfully helpful to society
for it creates IN atmosphere that refnes those less
careful in their demeanor and manners.
Let US have more courtesy weeks more
courtesy months, more courtesy years, until
courtesy becomes real Characteristic of the race,
and until none win be deceptive in its practice.
