It is only just, after all, that people
should realize what tremendous pride we

This pride alone will always be a suf

staking efforts or quality drugs is out of
the question.
Perhaps this attitude in a large meas

descenslou of outsiders- It has Us own
uubllc opinion and civic pride. The
munuger of a chain of rural atores
comments . on the revolution wrought
to country life by the easy access to
(he city. Radio, autos, and national
magazines have been part of the Inter
weaving forces of a shuttle constantly
at work between the larger and the
smaller communities. He might have
mentioned the power of women's clubs
to raise the cultural level by lectnree
on current events, by the encourage
ment of gardening, by the provision
and furtherance of music.
The Mule town does not live by the
mere sufferance of the city. Nor does
i It run tp the city for every good thing
I to eat, to hour, to wear. It Is uware
of hooks and abreast of fashions. It
has churches served by ministers who
are compensated by the devotion of a
flock for their relatively modest In
come. Moreover, that income is not
always small when weighed In the bal
iince with the cost of city life. One of
the peculiar satisfactions to the small
(own dweller Is the neighborhood con
sciousness the knowledge that next
door neighbors and those beyond next
door ;id Infinitum will eagerly mobilize
to lio'ji in tiiiH of need.

Community Built Up
by Organized Effort
A line example of community effort
thai jSK'ts results Is found In t'le work
of Improving the streets that Is beiu,;
carried on in Columbiana. It Is also n
demonstration of the manner In which
such an organization as the Exchange
club cun render Its best service. Some
weeks ago nt a meeting of the club a
fund for street Improvement was start
ed. In this, however, they were pre
ceded by a group of citizens who, co
operating with Mayor Leonard, were
at work chertlng the street leading to
the Southern depot. Other citizens
Joined the Exchange club with their
contributions and now the depot street
has been completed and good progress
Is being mude on College street. There
Is enough money pledged. It Is said, to
chert every street In town. There are
other things to be done In Columbiana
and there are similar things to he
done In every other community In the
county. Let our people organize them
selves and take hold for still greater
effort at community building. Shelby

Movement to Suburbs
The tremendous growth of Ameri
can cities and the resultant growth of
the suburban zones around them hnve
renched such proportions thnt the
whole conception of cities and their
regulation requires revision. The
standards by which everything regard
ing cities was Judged a generation ago
are no longer adequate, and some radi
cal changes In the physical aspect of
cities and their administration may be
expected. Decentralization of cities
Is already under way. and the results
are apparent In the real estate market
In an unprecedented demand for ncre
aire n round the fringes of the cities.
In the Chicago area this activity Is
apparent for 30 miles or more In all
directions.
