same time piled up a surplus which assisted
the taxpayers in taking care of the public expense.
If this he the case where deep wells must be sunk
for water, reservoirs erected for storing and power
secured through steam or some other costly mode,
surely Llano, with its swift mountain stream run-
ning right through the heart of the town with
plenty of water and power, could well profit
through a municipal plant.
If you live in a email town you
know what gossip is, for you have
i prubably been in the very middle of
j it, adding your bit to the cause. A
! little town thrives on it, many of its
litizens anxious to know something
the other person doesn’t know so he
can tell it first. Then there are those
who know absolutely, but decide it
in best to lie about it, rather than no’
be able to talk. Talk, tbAt is what
| most of us live off of. Instead of
a deaf ear, we drink it in,
jund then go to our neighbor and not
j only tell what we have heard, but
\hinking it would sound more inter-
esting, add a little to it according to
I err imagination.
Think of the idle talk that has been
done when so much good could have
teen done in its place; so many cheer
j tvl remarks could have been made
j ,nd so many kind words spoken in
tits place. And the bad part about it
> the fact that those people who talk
most are those who have less right
! to talk. If they worried over their
cwn affairs, their own lives, as much
a:; they worry about others, they
••ould soon realize that they had no
light to talk about the other person.
Gossip is one cf the greatest evils
r. all time, for in most instances the
Wctims are absolutely innocent of
any wrong doing In our conception
of the hereafter, we see gossipers,
