The days artsTnwiy ldngthening. the long nights of winter to which we had looked forward with pleas- ing expectations of broadening our reading and generally improving ourselves, are slowly shortening. Wonder if we carried out our good intentions or are we leaving it till next winter? I In these rapid days upon which we have fallen, when the flapper and the smart alec are abroad in the land, we are all too liable to adopt their nonchalant ways and forget the respect we owe to our- selves and to society. Let us not forget to be courteous and respect- ful one to the other. The immigrants in our midst, few though they be, are our wards to help, to encourage, them to adopt our ways. They are strangers to our methods a‘nd to our manner of living. It is our duty to ourselves as well as to them to help them in every possible way. Contented and prosperous immigrants are our best immigration agents.
