Intelligent participation in
bearing the responsibilities of
citizenship can most effectively
be achieved by the creation of
community council, which should
consist of leaders from civic clubs,
schools, churches, Chambers of
Commerce, Women's Clubs,
American Legion, and other or
CARNATIONS, which should meet
for research and fact-finding
along certain definite lines, such
as public health, public recrea-

should not be devoted to the. ex-
pressions of opinions and preju-
dices, but to the careful thinking
out of plans for the development
of wholesome public convictions
along definitely, constructive
lines

against wit, the hunter seeking to
take Lightfoot's life and Lightfoot
seeking to save it. The experience
of other years had taught Light
foot much of the ways of hunters
and not one of the things he had
learned about them was forgot

knew much of the ways Of deer.

Three boys went out on a camp

some time, and among their sup
plies they had many bottles of soda
pop, of which they were very fond.
When they arrived at their camp

tasks to prepare the camp and went
off in three directions. One of them
accomplished his task first, and
when he returned he decided to be
