Horn Trad Truths.
A dollar spent In your own town Is
dollar saved to the community.
The purchasing power of money
spent around your home Is much more
than Its purchasiilS power If spent
way on yonder. It buys the respect
of your neighbors and staudlng for
yourself as a loyal citizen.
It is funny to hear a fellow preach
and prnte alniut town loyalty when he
makes a habit of using the mall order
catalogue as his saleslady or sules
man. Now, Uu't that a fact?
Maybe the reasou thut young friend
of yours resigned his Job In the local
store and moved to the big city Is that
you have leen helping to build up the
city stores at the expense of the local
stores and your young friend's sal
ary at home suffered accordingly.
Did It ever occur to you that the com
uiuulty feeling, so to speak, la the
thing that makes life worth living In
any town? By the community feeling
Is meant, of course, that condition
where neighbor are mutually depend
ent and helpful, one recognizing the
right of the other to be considered first
In any deal rather than an outsider,
and vice versa. And the motto of the
community feeling la this: 'Tatronlze
home Industries."
If the mall order trade Is hurting
your town, and In all probability it la
and you know it la. suppose you pause
a moment and ask yourself what part
of the Injury you are inflicting. Why
ot?
