EACH FOR ALL, MLf OR EACH
Hew tha Interests' sf BeUwood aad Bar-
roaadiags ara Interwotea
The term "community" eieni-
lies a group of people bound together by the ties of common interest. These interests may ba
trading, maketing, banking, re-
'igious worship, schooling, farming, merchandising, running ■ a
country "rag" or recreation. In
other word*, the mutual relation
of the merchant, farmer,   trader,
' a
banker, lawyer, doctor, editor, pastor and manufacturer with labor
creates tbe oommunity. This relation extends as Lr out into the
county as tbe automobile brings
customers and client to tbe common center. Thia community relation creates a partnership by
wbicb each member of the com
mnnity ia vitally interested in tbe
welfare oi every other member.
The bank, the store, the office and
the markets of the town are
worthless without that great number of silent partners in the country, who oome as far as -the auto
brings thetn to deposit or borrow
money, to buy goods, or to sell
produota.
On the other hand ihe farm haa
no value it' the towns tor 50 mi e-
arouud be destroyed. -The btt-ic
fact is that we are all partner** to
eiich other's busine*-s. and afiairs.
Successful partnership is based
upon good wi'l, co-operation, and
the t-quare deal. In .addition to
the home community we have a
much larger community bound
together by common .ties known
as the county, the state, the nation and even the world.    Yet the

Here we live and have our being.
Just to the degree that the home
community is made a better plsce
in which to live, iust to tbat degree do we get a larger, richer
and more abundant lite. The
business world is more and more
organised service. The satit-fi* d
customer is the one wbo bas been
wsll served. The most sueets-d'ul
individual is the one in whose
heart and on whose tongue is the
phrase, "What can I do for you ?"
The msn of vision can see the
promise of tomorrow. Many ot
us are finding oot, possibly too
late, that the golden rule pays big
returns in business.
Team work won the war. Team
work brings success to tha great
store, mail order house and packing plants. Team work, work between town and country, is tbe
only way to better tbe community. Team work in oommunity
service is organized friendship,
promoting common welfare from
a better acquaintance, understanding and good will. The effective
ness ot joining forces has been
demonstrated in peace as well SS
in war.

G ive a youngster a dog tor a

loyal and trien dly, happy ahd. obedient, mischevious and lovable,
a doggone good friend for anyone.
Jnat a plain dog will do. A dog
without pedigree, a dog without
price, without anything to boast
of except that he is just dog, with
a dog's instinct, a dog's manners,
a dog's siucerity, a dog's unswerving faith in and kindness to any
one who will bh loyal and kind
to him.
Just a plain dog. Iu otber
words, a mnt, a mongrel, yes a

boy and girl at some time ia lite,
is entitled to one plain, everyday,
ordinary dog.
