Is this cooperative business PRACTICAL
7 believe 1t was msrae1i who defined
practical people as those "who go around
making the mis- takes their ancestors madeg
According olns defini tion practical peo-
pie are afraid to try anything new. Their
tradi tiona1 thinking causes them to make
the same mistakes that we're made in the
past. Cooperative business tries to avoid
the mi takes made by some businesses in
the past, and still made by few practi-
cal business men today. cooperatives try
to avoid pi1ing up huge profits in the
hands Of few while the mu1 titudes are
left wi tn little or no buying power. They
try to avoid That mistake because It seems
to be responsible for many Of our economic
dtfftcu1 ties today. If being practical
means just that 60 making the came mi 81 takes
over and over again then cooperatives
are not practical.
But If being practical could somehow
be made to mean supplying our needs and
distributing goods to a larger group Of
people in a more efficient and sati STAG
tory manner, then cooperatives would be
considered practical. Doing business in
q less costly manner would certainly sat-
isfy the hard-headed bust ness man in
fact 1t is the cpl tome Of practi ce1ity
in his opinion. The farmers Of the Middle
Vest think thems selves very practical and
many successful ones do business the CO.
operative way.

The superintendent of parks was authorized yesterday at a meeting of the board to establish, playgrounds wherever equipment is available, this, in response to a request from the East End Community club that property purchased for a school building on Homestead avenue be used for playground.
 The playground will be established if the equipment is available and if about $500 can be appropriated to pay the supervisors. Suggestion was made that the community might raise money for. the equip ment.
 All concessions at Lakewood park. except the roller skating rink and the merry-go-round, were voted leased to Martin F. BoWeS for $500 for the coming season. The lease covers refreshment stands, swim ming and some amusement equip- ment.
 Sale of season tickets at the municipal golf course is ahead of the number at this time last year. The course was opened during the warm spell in the middle of April, two weeks earlier than in 1887.

 So, yesterday afternoon, she asked member of the family to call at THE DEMOCRAT office and to see about her present. Which was done. And now Dolores, we hope that you are happy and are all set to make showing in the CON- TEST and win some of the prizes, $200 cash and other awards.
 See Contest Manager
