Every community has some of all of
these. In the language of the lawyers
the exact percentage or proportion in
Edgecombe may be "more or less as
the case may be."
In my humble judgment that
community will thrive most that
contains most men whose neighbors
can call them "men" and fewest nr i.
whose neighbors can Justly call them
various other animals.
As a matter of fact, a flock of
sheep in a Western snow storm show

There is never any internal dtosensto:
in the sheep community. They proper
ly appreciate the fact that their Indi
vidual safety depends upon the Indi
vidual protection of their common In
terests. They therefore herd dose
together and assist each other a-

of Edgecombe County partridges will
do the same thing.
