the best bread possible, else it doesn't go into
the Olympic sacks.
That is the reason your bakings of bread,
bisenit ami pastry are always uniformly good
when you use Olympic. Your bakings can’ t
be expected to be the same always unless the
flour is. Therein lies the beauty of using
Olympic.

plicate the prices made by any re­
sponsible
concern
anywhere
on
goods of equal quality, in the same
quantities and on the same basis of
delivery and payment.
2. You can examine your pur­
chases in the home stores and be
assured of satisfaction before invest
ing your money.
3. Your home merchants are al­
ways ready and willing to
make
right any error or any deL -tive ar­
ticle purchased.
4. Your home merchants help
support, through direct and indi
rect taxation, your schools, churches
libraries and other public instttu
tlons
5. Your home merchants help
make
a good local market for
everything you have to sell, and the
market— more than any other fac
tor gives your land its present
value.
6. Your
home merchants are
your good friends, ever r îady to ex­
tend a helping hand In time of
need.
7.
If this community Is good
enough for you to live in and make
your money in, it's good enough to
spend in.
8.
The best citizens In this com­
munity are those who believe and
practice home patronage.
Be one
of the best.
9.
The merchants in the distant
ctiy give you nothing valuable that
the home merchants cannot give,
will not do for you many things
the latter do gladly.
10. Every dollar kept in circula­
tion in this community helps In­
crease property values. Every dol
lar sent out of this community that
could as well be spent here hinders
the wheels of progress and helps to
build up some other community at
our expense.
"The public certainly has
the
right to expect from our public
school system approximately some
such results us these: a preparation
for earning a livelihood, the devel­
opment of moral fiber, a fair degree
of scholarship, or at least a de­
sire to learn more after leaving
school, an appreciation of the beau­
tiful In art and nature, and a deep
respect for the laws of our land.
That these results have been
at­
tained in thousands of cases, there
can be little doubt.
At the same
time it Is an open questlcyi whether
the school helps a reasonably large
percentage of children in these par
ticulars. That boys and girls come
from the schools with little prepa­
ration for work is the complaint
heard from the business houses, the
farms, and every class of industry.’
