The Blessing of Neighborliness
1117
By A. W. B.
I happened upon a striking WtYtra-
tiaa-tel- vYii t taiighbdlltl -91r -110-1
when 1 called at a country boa, One
day. Remarking about another little
lite that had begun at a neighboring
Donne on the road. end speaking kind-
ly of mot:rer and little one, the good
woman whom I addressed admitted
with (omponetion that *be who liked
to be thought of as a good neighbor
knew nothing about this birth. Eight
days had passed of this new baby's
Ole end she had not known of IL She
!tatted herself that mile, well in health,
active and around, had been so re -
mks in kindly Interest„ and the com-
a a
mon, gracious cowrtP lea til t neigh-
borliness
borliness comprise*.
The blessing of neighborliness was
given to me In rather a remarkable
admi slon one day by an old mac In
■ aettlemeat. Ills actual words were:
"What to ore la a continual feast Is
that white old man so and mo and i
have ontilved all who atlirted in with
ns on( here. and there Is ■ new gen-
eration apron( up and many newcom-
ers here, there Ie not one but will
eomp and help me out. Piretrate
folks! Nablr neighbors!"
The neighborly /spirit Is a Ane thing,
but, unhappily, an many do not wer-
lonsly and gladly enitivate It. Walt
Mn on reminds w* of that in one of
his rhymes. He speaks of • neighbor
(tight, "a kindly soul and his manner.
frank and free. into Ida cottage I
often Mend and be frequently visits
MA... Th"y "air their rlPws w1111P (be

garden sans." We all know this Mr.
Right. Rot there la a Mr. Left. "a
surly chap" Mallon an 4Peerthea him.
with a gloomy and • frowning face
which makes Walt Mason "viten his
dwelling of til* map whenever 1 pees
his place" This snarly cba9 Is gnety
of many nsaelgMwtrly thine.- we know
the kind, the and that are dismissed
with, 'Tna can't neighbor with him"
New that ,,merit really swap. on his
pert there b no Initiative, no approach
with the milk of human kindness M
menially Mess a eommwnity; there la,
neither, the response to overtures of
goodly fellowship and offered kind-
nesses. $ucb an anti-iON4a1 beteg to
a desperate cast. Their kind art
out of place In any community that
dralres to lire up to Peter McArthur'a
designation of Canada. "THE LAND
OF GOOD NEI(4HHORS." They are
to he clamed with those people of whom
1t Is said that they save money all
summer so that they can go to law
with their neighbors In the winter.
The practice of melt ehnea*, the spirit
of anobhery manlfiated, the driving of
hart bargains, the Irritating habit of
fo picking holes In other people's
garments, ail are as contrary to neigh-
borliness' atm an east wind with an Icy
edge le to an unprotected person.
We would not have neighborliness
confounded with nominees or tntaybodl-
news. There are still a few left to
this rid noted who think that If they
slip over 'o my home or yours and in-
dulge largely in the email eh nge of
conversation, without regard to what
ix their buslweaw, and the damage that
may be done thereby to other's charac-
ters and the peace of the community,
they hare dlecharged their neighborly
obligation. This practice le an an-
cient els, for St. Paul warned the wo-
men of his day of It. "No(....buay-
bodies, ',peaking things which they
ought not." (1 Tim. 5:1*).
Neighborliness wan undoubtedly not
only the prime nem -malty In virtue of
the pioneers of Oda conntry, hut the
thing they -counted moat and regn-
