American Defense ribbons. Well, from our observation, what "this town needs" is a few more doers and not so many philosophers. What Kind of Townspeople Are YOU? Everyone can see things t h a t .ieed to be done — it will always be t h a t way,_ we hope, because of such things is progress born — but there are mighty few real doers. Most people feel it is the other fellow's responsibility to actually s t a r t the ball rolling. "Oh, t h a t ' s up to someone else to s t a r t it," they'll say. "I wcwWn't want to stick my nose in." " W h a t not?" w^ ask. "Whose town is it?" If a fan\ily is making its home in a town, whether they are renting a house or ore property j owners, then they are a part of the community and assume their share of the responsibilities. They must ask "Why don't WE do this?" instead of "Why don't THEY do it?" It is not hard to spot the towns where there is concerned civic approach to problems. These are the towns t h a t look well cared for, t h a t have a spruce, well-tended look, t h a t have an air of civic pride which extends to every single home.
