THE COMMUNITY BUILDER

When boom is under way, good
many people are barely aware of it, and still
fewer make it a point to save regularly a
part of their earnings. 1t is easy enough to
feel the pinch of depression, but it takes the
exceptional man to sense the outstanding
factor of prosperity.
Most of US take prosperity in its stride
and think little of the Importance of profit
ing by it. Easy money is easily spent
All CT which leads up to the record
breaking payment of income taxes by Key
Westers-.a least % times as much as we
have paid in any other period Reports that
one mans earnings last year amounted 10
$4,000, anothers to 100000 or S25, 900,
should not fill us with envy; instead, We
should be pleased that our fellow Key West
ers have had fortune smile benignly on
them.
That money in some instances at least,
the progress of our city; in any event, it will
mean the circulation of a larger sum here,
and the greater the circulation the larger
the number of people who will be benefited.
Money itself means little; it purchases
neither contentment nor happiness; in some
cases it engenders discomfort; but the right
full use of money is promotive of the gen
eral well being And The Citizen is conf
dent that some of the Key Westers who are
cleaning up will use their money judi
oiously in helping their community while
helping themselves.
But that money that falls into miserly
hands keeps its possessor in feverish
state of perturbation and does not help the
community in which he lives one whit.
Conversely, The Citizen knows of sew
eral Key Westers whose money is driving
force in promoting the interests of Key
West Regarding two or three of those men,
The Citizen has heard this question pro-
pounded, time and again, What do they
want with more money!"
Well, they don't want any mere other
than to keep their businesses thriving and
thereby build up weekly or semi-monthly
payrolls that provide livelihoods for many
Key Westers. In other words, those men are
not concerned in boarding = they consider
boarding despicable-; they want more
money to put it to work, and, in putting it to
work, to help. themselves and their city
On the other side of the picture, The
Citizen knows some men whose money is
curse to them. OF what good is their money
when they deprive themselves of the neces-
sites of life SO that they may add more
money to their miserly pile?
So don't begrudge any man for the
money he earns and what is of far greater
Importance, saves and puts to work That
type of man is the community builder.

Why?

A teacher was giving a lesson
on the circulation of the blood.
Trying to make the matter clear
er. he said: Now, bows, if l stood
on my head. the blood. as you
know. would run into it. and I
should turn red in the face"
yes, sir" said the boys.
Then WHY is it that while ! am
standing upright in ordinary DO
sition the blood doesn't run into
nv feet"
A little fellow shouted. "cause

Green Meadows before Mrs. Quack
came. In fact. Sammy Jay and
Blacky were getting very uneasy. 1t
was almost bedtime for them, for
neither of them dared to stay out
after dark. They had almost made
up their minds to leave Peter to tell
the news when they saw Mrs. Quack
coming swiftly from the direction OF
the Big River. She looked up so sad
and discouraged that even Blacky
the Grow was sorry for her, and. you
know. Blacky isn't much given to
such feelings.
What's the news, Mrs. Quack?"
asked Peter, his eyes dancing.
There isn't any" replied Mrs.
Quack.

Jay, who could keep still no longer.
What is it?" demanded Mrs.
Quack eagerly, and it seemed to
Peter that there was wee bit of
hope in her voice.

Mrs. Quack nodded her head
rapidly. What of it?" she de

I would go down there after dark, "
replied Sammy.
Mrs Quack looked up at Sammy
sharply. Why should I go down
there?" she asked
IF I tell YOU will YOU wait until I
get quite through?" asked Sammy in
his turn.
Mrs Quack promised that she
would Well. them replied Sam
my. this afternoon l found a
stranger hiding in there, stranger
with a beautiful green head and
neck and white collar
"Mr Quack Oh, it was Mr
Quack!" cried Mrs. Quack ioyfully,
ana lifted her wings as If she would
start for the swamp at once
"Stopr cried Sammy sharply.
You said YOU would wait until l am

there until after dark. because there
