To size up a town It takes a stranger. ' The average citizen can live In his home town a lifetime and Bee almost nothing of its relative progresslvenesB with other towns of its size. But the strang er comes fresh from other scenes and is in a receptive frame of mind as he draws into the railroad station. His first impression of the town will prob ably be formed as the station comes la sight and he alights and gets a better view of the surroundings and accommo dations. His walk up town will prob ably give him the deepest and moBt ' lasting Impression be will have of the place. If he sees up-to-date stores and handsome goods artistically displayed In the store windows, if he sees clean 9 streets and prosperous appearing people, l be sees magnificent punllo buildings and other evidence of progress and good citizenship, his impressions are going to be good. If he Bees tho opposite, so are his impressions going to be. And If he should come at night, it Is possible he would notice the lights of the town and judge it largoly by whether the town has oil lamps, gaa lamps, or modern electrlo lights. But it takes the stranger to Bee these things. Ridgway Advocate. Reynoldsviile has many of the things tbat give the stranger a good Impres sion. It can be made better, however, and this should be the task of everyone who has the town's welfare at heart. Everybody should strive to Improve the appearance of the town. , m Farewell Surprise Party. L. D.
