Bartlill'. 3 i � LIFE 13 GAVE D TAKE PROPOSITION No Man, Under Modern Condi- tions, Can Live Entirely. Unto Himself. EACH DEPENDENT ON OTHERS Citizen Who Does Not Aid In Build- ing ,Up Community Can Not Expect to Have Pros- perity Himself. (Copyi'igh t. ) There was a time In the world when a man could do pretty much as he pleased., What one man did was of little concern to anyone else, for it hadlittle effect on anyone else. Those days are. gone, however, and they never will return. To -day, no man can live entirely unto himself. Life is a complicated affair under modern conditions. No one man in any community is entirely indepen- dent of all others in that community. Organized society, in the forts of governments, national, state and local, have recognized the new condi- tions and have decreed that every man must observe certain rules in his relations with his fellow men. He must -not do certain things that would endanger the health of other people in his community. He myst not do such things as would disturb the peace and quiet of his neighborhood. He must remember that he owes a duty to his community. Not Question of Right. A man may say that he has the right to spend his money where he pleases; that no one can stop him if he wants to buy -his groceries, his clothes and his furniture in some city miles away from where he earns the money to pay for them. He is right. There is no law to prevent him from doing so, unless it is the law of self- preservation. The man who has the right to send his money away to some distant city instead of spending it at home, also has the right to send his children to that city to be educated in the schools, which his money helps to support, but he doesn't exercise that right. He sends his children to the local schools, the maintenance of which is made possible by the men give=iLnii laPco'nl"oliositfoft.A'man can not take everything and give nothing and get away with It for any great length of time. He can not take his living from a eomruiuiity and give nothing bade to help the other fellow make a living, If he cuts off the other fellow's,living, he is bound eventual- ly to cut off his own, for unless the other fellow has money to buy -his labor or his goods he can not make a living himself, You may say that what you buy doesn't amount to much and the money that you send away to the mail order houses in other Cities can not have any great effect upon the general business conditions in your town. Maybe it doesn't amount to much and maybe it won't have any great effect upon the community's prosperity in itself, but what will bo the result 1f every person in thecom- munity, or half of them, or a tenth of them, take the same view of the matter. Your business, in itself, may not amount to much, but taken to- gether with the business of a hundred others In the community, it amounts to a great deal. It amounts to the difference between a prosperous com- munity and a "dead" one. It amounts to the difference, in the end, between good times and bad times for your- self and your own family. If you lived on a desert isle, It would make no difference Where you sent your money, because it would make no dif- ference whether you had any money at all or not. But you are not living upon a desert isle. You are living in a modern community. To do every- thing possible to build up that com- munity'is not only a duty which you owe to the community, but—more important still—it is a duty which you owe to yourself. Taxes Will Increase. You have children to educate. You want your cohtmunity to have good schools so that your children may have the same advantages that the children in the big city have. If you live on a farm you -need good roads over which to haul., your products to market. You may say that you pay your share of the taxes out of which the school houses are built and the roads constructed. Maybe you do•pay your share, in proportion to the value of your world's goods, but where is the other fellow to get the money topayhis share of the taxes it after you pay your taxes, you send the re- mainder of your money to some oilier community to help build their schools and constrdet their roads. The mer- chants of any comrnlinity pay a very considerable part of the taxes col- lected in that community. Go to the lax books andY ou will and this to ie the case. When the business of he merchant falls off and he carries ;nailer stocks and has less money n the bank, he pays smaller taxes, .rad as the amount bo pays in taxes ecreases, the amount you pay must ,crease if the schools are to be main - and the roads kept up. It may e a malt's ow•n business if lie wants n send his money to help build up sae bib cities where the mail order .ouaos flourish, but it's poor business or himself as well as for everybody who spend their money at home, irein the community in which he lives.
