association be organized to handle

team was organized over two years ago but. was
voted down. Sport..is one thing that” makes a
good live town and from the manner in which the
public has supported the various clubs it is quite
evident that the local people realize the benefit to
be derived. But under separate associations the
best. results are. not: obtainable, neither is the
Toney: expended to the. best advantage, and. this
is not reflecting on any committee or individual.
- Under one head the greatest results are obtained
with the:least.expense.and the least exertion. At
the meeting the other evening no authority: had
been given to organize an athletic association and
it was properly considered inadvisable to proceed
with such work until proper notice had: ‘heen giv-

transportation, placing them in a position. to. enjoy
more leisure by the introduction of ‘power ‘to the
needs of the farm, and would help to. reduce: the
cost of living to the consumer. It: would relieve
cities of the slums and would make life worth
the living.” But he proposes to do more than
provide the farmers with power and light. He

‘intends that they shall have cheap ‘electric trans-

portation and cheap telephones. His general idea
may be said to be to combine the advantages. of
town life with those of country. life, a consum-
