If the big men of the world could
seo their way clear to devote their
time to tho world's governmental
work, we would have fewer problems
to solve. In the same way, if the
big men of city and village, could
see their way clear to devote their
time to the work of city and vill
age, many of the problems which
confront such places would rapidly
dissolve in an atmosphere of clearer
understanding. Men who will not
take any part in the government of
their respective towns, have no mor
al right to complain if bad or un-business-like
conditions prevail. Lo
cal good government, and the way
to attain it through the co-operation
and guidance of Its practical busi
