Neglected Neighborhoods.

You can find in almost any town a “neglected neighborhood.” The easiest thing to do with such f neighborhood is to keep on neglecting IL It is so easy for us to study these topics as if they wore about other places and people than ourselves and our homes. Is there a neglected corner In your town, or In your county! If there is what are you going to do about it? Not "What have you been doing about it?” as “What ought you to do about ItY’ but "What are you going to do aobut itT” If you can’t get the committees interested, do something yourself. Do not be afraid. The thing is te get started. You see, as soon ss you hava started some thing, the neighborhood is no longer neglected. And then it wfi* be an easier matter to get someone to come In and heip.-ChristlM Herald.
