'I`o begin with. he is often not too well acquainted with his real neigh- boi's-the men in the inside of the men he knows now show themselves only to kindred spirits. Then after a hard day's work he is prone to stay quietly at home in preference to driv- ing several miles to discuss, under a smoky lamp. the old problems in much the same old way. But there's one thing everyone wants-a good tifne. Everyone takes his recreation in some form--only there s nothing collective about it; each goes his own way at his own time. Really persuade the neighbors once that they can ha-ve a better time at the club meeting than they can at home, and they'll go without coaxing. So that seems the logical starting point. A leader never nds it hard to get people to organize for pleas- u`re--lo have a good time. And it leads to great things, too. As people `become better acquainted mutual respect and condence de- vclop.
