It is easy enough for a few to start a
thing but it will require hard work on
the part or all to carry it through suc
cessfully. There is no reason why a
good time, for the first effort, cannot be

part do nothing and a part devote their
energies to kicking about those who do
try to help it, there will a good, big
fizzle.
