When buying Roods "mado in
America" go justn little further,
be a little more patriotic, and
BUY GOODS AT HOME! It
is good to buy goods in Amer
ica, but it is oven, better to
buy them from HOME MER
CHANTS. By buying American
made goods you keep your money
in circulation in America. But
by buying those goods from our
local merchants you keep your
money in circulation at home.
Every man and woman talks
patriotism and likes to be con
sidered patriotic. Let's prac
tico what we preach. Buy
American made goods at home
from our merchants. That is
patriotism.
