WHAT MAKES AGOOD TOWN
A few days ago in com elation with
a gentleman who was spending a week
here tills gentleman said to The News
You have a splendid town here and
it is due to I he enterprising character
of the people of both town and country
Its almost impossible for business
men and citiens to make a good town
without the surioiiiiding people being
of the right caliber anil neither can
the farming element about a town
boost it much wilh a lot of dead ones
running the business of the town
This man went on lopointoiita town
located very much as Jasper is ami in
side of -1 1 miles of Jasper and with all
our natural advantages lie said
This town I speak of has a line class
of farmeis aiound il but the merchants
and biisincs men have no enterprise
no ambition to teach out and will not
take a chance on anything that calls
foi an outlay of money
Sometimes il is good for us in hiar
what the other fellow thinks of us it
helps to keep us out of the rut It pe
however does not scni inclined in jei
into a rut Just now the littsiiuss nun
are backing a thousand dollar bau
tauiua and for yeais we have In en
pulling on wiutei lyceiim cotttses and
summer Clmutiitiijuas paxiii a
detlcil eveiy year bill feeling tliit tv
ciy dollar spent trj ing to make a bit
town is a dollar well spent It may
be that the Chaiitauipta backirs will
have to go into their pockets this ycai
to pay the bill and if we do a fi w fel
lows will laugh in their slcives and
while rattling the dollars in then own
pockets will thank their slain tlicv me
not as othei men are Such people
have a nairow mentality and then cap
acity foi enjoying life is icstiielul ac
cordingly
Jaspers boosters will reap their re
ward some day and indeed aie doing
so now in the knowledge that their
time and money is spent for the
niunity
Engagement Announced
