How to Run n Town• One of our most sensible ex changes gives the following ad vice on how to run a town; ‘Either run it with a vim or sell out an leave it. Men who are always .trying to get out of business will never do much jot build up a town. One or two things must be done run the thing for all it is worth, get up steam and keep it, or quit the, whole thing, slide out and let nature take its course. If you want a prosperous town where people can come who are dis posed to make homes, then do away with all spite and Jeal ousy; and work not for a few individuals, but all work to gether for a common prosperity and mutual'benefit.
