In the place where they formerly resided, according to his story, there are 50 families with wncm they were on calling terms, and I who would be pretty sure to come in and see them from time to time. But in their present location, there is scarcely anyone who ever calls. This man and his wife were willing to go to considerable expense and trouble to find a more congenial atmosphere. Some cities must have many residents who feel the same w ay. This incident may suggest that the local social atmosphere prevailing in a town has a good deal to do with the question whether it grows or not. A community has got tT make its people happy and contented in order to keep them. Yet people do not make social calls as they used to some years ago. The above mentioned family may find conditions quite different when they get back into that place where they dwelt before the war. i Many of the women had servants then, and had time in which to make visits. Now' most of them probably do their own housework, and making calls may seem like quite a different proposition to them now. Tn the main, nowadays. people have to make their friendships by engaging in the activities of their home town. If they do not attend some church, or join clubs or-fra-ternal or nhilanthropic societies, or go in for athletics or play cards or dance, or engage in any of the prevailing activities of the time, the chances for making freinds are not specally good. Intimate associations are made when people do things together, not by sitting around in parlors and swapping conversation. THE RUMMAGE SALE x One of the most successful ways for raising money nowadays for churches and philanthropies, is to hold rummage sales. Many organizations make hundreds of dollars from such events. The majority of families have old clothes and house furnishings that they have discarded, but which would be worth a cash sum to someone. When all these things are collected, an aggregate of material ■ is brought together that has a good ! deal of money value. It was lying worthless in peoples attics and । closets, but by organization and rt- ! fort means are provided to turn it : into cash. ft is a specially satisfactory ; tiring for such societies to attempt, ! because they can thereby feel they 1 are performing a real service. FreI quently to raise money for public , causes, it seems to be necessory to i do things that do not seem to sup- . ply any public need. But when you j offer a rummage sale of articles 1 having some worth, you create val- i ue that did not exist "while all this' stuff was lying unused. Such events are welcomed by people of smaii means, who are usually able to find in them articles that they can make good use of. In ; many places there will be families' who look for this source of supplies as a regular thing. They go I to such sales and obtain for few dollars some suit or overcoat or i dress for which a large sum was i paid when it was new', and which 1 with a little fixing up would give good service, and perhaps even look handsome and distinguished, j Such an event is a service to the community, and it promotes thrift,; as it provides for getting the full; use of articles which were discarded ' previously* when only half worn. ' President Coolidge would no doubt ; say that rummage sales are a useful feature of national economy. THE “BUMMING TRIP” The young fellows of today have . devised a new plan for getting I around the country, which is much j in evidence this summer. They | start out nominally to “hike” from city to city, but actually they pro- ; ceed to get on the outskirts of a ( tow’n along some main road, and by : various signs w r ell known to drivers , us cars, they indicate their desire for j a ride on their so-called “bumming j trip.” | The college students have worked this plan very freely. Apparently they are able to get rides, where humbler members of youthful socie- ; ty can not do so. They say that to obtain such free passage, they neeu to >be w’ell dressed, so that men witn a desire for companionship are glad to take them in. This ability to chase around the country for hundreds of miles nas given many of them a ereat feeling of independence, and they glory in being able to visit desired places without having to pay railroad fare. The majority of motorists are getting tired of such requests, par-i ticularly from the many small boys ; who w'ant to get in and ride about I half a mile to the street corner j nearest their homes. Also in many | quarters where there have rccenriy ! been hold-ups of motorists by ban- i dits, even the most sprucely attired . youth will see many cars pass him at full speed. Possibly though, some jolting old business car may take him in. but he mar pay liberally bruises for his free transportation. , It may be a rather harmless amusement for these young fellows, up to a certain point. But tney should look out that it does not develop into a kind of wanderlust i that can not settle down at regular i tasks, and that is discontented unless it is roving around the country all the time.

PUTTINI. ON O\ ERALLS It has been complained for some years, that young men would not go into the mechanical trades. Bui at last, they seem to be showing more sense and going into toe well paid building industry. A recent report states that the supply of labor for this trade, both skilled and unskilled, is sufficient for existing needs except in a few cities. The supply of such labor, it is stated, is constantly being reinforced from the apprenticeship schools. Apparently young men are making up . their minds that the glory of wearing a white collar and store clothes is not adequate to compensate for the low'er wages often paid in clerical work. They are apparently concludr ing that no disgrace attaches to . overalls. This is a truth which the philosophers have long been preaching, but many have seemed to ques- . ■ tion it. j WEDDING ANNIVERSARIES , President and Mrs. Coolidge have . 1 just observed a 20th wedding anniversary. This contrasts pleasantly j with many married couples who can not get along together for 20 months, perhaps not 20 weeks. । The newspaper used to print in 1 about every issue accounts of this ! or that couple'that had celebrated some wedding anniversary, usually the 25th or 50th. The community likes to honor such folks. That kind of news seems less conspicuous I now. That does not mean that married couples are commonly se- ; parating before those memorable ! dates. It may simply indicate that more people are celebrating these ; events in a quite manner. The completion of a long period 1 of harmonious family affection suggests that if people will exercise । reason in marrying, they can celebrate many happy anniversaries, .1 and found homes that will be centers of beneficient influence. TATTLE ROOM FOR PESSIMISTS. I John Hays Hammond, the noted mining engineer, declared at a recent business conference at Babson Park, Massachusetts, that It is an advantage for a young man to be an optimist. No great constructive work was ever carried out by a pessimist, he said. This is true in the daily course of business anyw'here. The young fellows who are going to be the big I men of this town 10 and 25 years from now, are those who greet the world every morning with a cheerful smile, and who are full of faith that things can be done. If you put them in charge of the community, they would start in to accomplish things that the older fellow's have i given up as too big jobs. And they ' would put over a lot of them, too. -PunchettesWhen a man decides to buy a car he argues that it’s such a time saver. Then he tells himself it will save him money. Taen he just starts paying the bills and quits lying about it.— Bremen Enquirer. Twenty Years Ago They had quarreled, and at last he cried. In accents of despair, “I wish that I could see your side.” The maiden shrieked as sh e replied. “That’s more than I can bare.” A Return Trip Motorist: “Hey, you ought to look out.” i Victim: “Wassa matter, you gonna back up and get me aeain?” Either Is Bad Disconsolate One: “I wish I were dead!” Consoler: “Why can’t you marry her —or did you?” And Then “I read an account of a man who , slept qxast the time for his wedding.” I “That’s nothing.
