WHAT IS CO-OPERATION?
AN AMERICAN’S IDEA. "TO BE MADE AND DEVELOPED.” Much thought has. been, given to coduring the last few years. Too many people have a nebulous concent.! on regarding co-operation, what it can and cannot accomplish. Mr Brad"ute, president of the American Farm Bureau Federation, in a recent address, said; ‘‘lf I were to ask 100 men in this audience each to write on a sheet of paper his idea of co operation, I dare say I .wbuld get 100 different ideas.” Mr Bradfute also said : “Let me tell you of my measuring stick of co-operation. It can be boiled down to this: He who would co-operate must first adjuist himself so that other men can co-operate with him. It was Pat who said, ‘Bridget and I are one, and I am that one. This does not express co-operative sentiment. To make a success of cooperative effort each person must yield in his views and then be ready to support the composite idea of all people in both fair and bad weather. Co-operation is not a ready-made coat that can be put on and worn, it .'S something that must be made and developed.”
