"Not my lookoal," you say well, let's consider It in I his way. If, in your estimation, your Htore.-i and merchants are poor, U is not going to make them any het-. ter for you to tell everybody about it. and when you arc In need of some! hing to buy It majl oiler, ' from n peddler, or go to some other town. .On the other hand, If you will give your local im rchair.s a break, and offer to buy from the m you will be performing not only a service to your community, a good turn to your fellow citizen, but you will be doing yourself a favor. This Isn't ii, mniter of com munity boosting or civic loyalty or civic welfare it Is purely a matter of good business mighty good business, on your part. If you live in a town you, or those who provide your livelihood, are In business or they at least earn a living In the community. If you own real estate, there is thai much more reason why you should go out of your way to see to It that your community gels all the business possible, but you don't have to ows two or three store buildings, a house and lot, or be n slock holder In a bank, in order that It pay you a profit. Therefore, it is not only your duly, but It is community gets alt the business ; f rolil yourself and everyone else ! you con influence; also, it is yourj business to see to it that your town i is not looked ilnwii upon, as it surely will be. if its stores are be hind tlie time. - j Hut it is ten to one that your ' stores are not as poor ns lots of people thing them to he, Vo'.ir. stores can supply you with most I anything that you may want to j purchase, in this day and age of standardized merchandising, with i present distribution system. any ; merchant can take care of your wants, if he wauls to. All' of t his Is said with the full1 rea I i.a t Ion. t ha t t here a re still some "store keepers," running "supply depots," who lave "clerks" instead of "sales people." li lt you are responsible if yni have good stores or poor ones. If you con tinually refuse to give your mer chants first opportunity to supply i your wants, continually buy from outside, you turn yourself into a walking, talking advertisement for. a bum town, and who wanls to live and have oilier people know that they live In a dead commun ity? Also, if you live In the town, cb pecially in a vuiiall city, your so cial life brings you in coniaci with your fellow citizens, you associate with thine; ami can you really feel just right In socially fraternizing with them, when you know that you are not giving., them a fair shake'.'

Since it is a new development, there is no law to cover its abuse, and the outcome of the New Yorkers lawsuit will be watched with a pood deal of interest.

There are certain limits, to be sure; if he entertains a noisy, sinjrmir party at " in the morn itijr, if he essays to install a pijrpen in his back yard, if he sets up a smoky and noisy machine shop in his house, his neighbors can have the law on him.
