One of the important organizations of the city is the Civic League. The cultivation of natural beauty is not the -Whole of its purpose, but it seeks to promote all things that are for community welfare. Its total end and aim is the production of whole some, useful and joyous community life. A flourishing Civic League will' accomplish much more than will ap pear in pleasant lawns, flower gar dens, parks and fountains. It will cul tivate the feeling of neigfoborlipess throughout tlhe town and foster the spirit of sociall service. It will bring the people together with a new sense of fellowship of common responsibil ity for the general welfare, not only for one's own immediate surroundings or for one's own circle of friends, but for all the people t for the humblest and the least conspicuous homes as wcfll as those more favored. He Who h$lpe.te create a better environment loir n)6n to live in is accomplishing ; avfl'tfc task. Our public buildings, parks and library all exert influence in the making of character. There fore, the Civic League should be of interest to every individual in Cam den. Mrs. William Ancrum, the Leagtf* "president, has recently re turned and 'will call a meeting at the regular time, the second Monday in October. In the meantime, (however, she is 'to get up a play for the benefit of the League. And we take this oc casion to bespeak for her the hearty co-operation of the people. Individ ualities may form communities, but ?it is institutions and organizations alone that can make a city. You may be a big taxpayer aryi yet worth very little to your community. It is the men and women who put their shoul ders to the wh?e\ he*p things on by giving their influence and material aid that make things happen and that are missed when they are gone. ' ?? ? ? ?
