Slll!l!sl¡ll!!l!!lllilll!llll¡ ¡■ ■ ■ ■ I l The Home Merchant--Who Is He? He is the chap who gives you credit when you are financially broke and carries your account until you are able to pay— He is the chap who gives you back your money, or makes ex change,-when you are not satisfied with what you have bought— He is the chap who stands behind his guaranty and makes res toration o f all losses that you may sustain on the goods you buy— He is toe chap who meets you at the door with a handshake, and lets you out with a message to the kids and a real come-again goodbye— He is the chap who greets you on the street everyday in the year and takes a neighborly interest in your family and your affairs— ' He is the chap whose clerks and bookkeepers and other employees live in your town and spend their money with you and with other home town people. He is the chap who pays heavy taxes to help support your town schools and build your streets, and maintain your fire departments and police departments, and parks, and lighting and water service— He is the chap who helps support your cities, churches and hos pitals and charity organizations and your lodges and commercial clubs and who talks for your town and boosts for your town every day in the year— He is the chap who visits you when you are sick, sends flowers to your family when you die, and follows your body out among the trees and tombs, as far as human feet may tread with the dead— He is the Home Merchant—your neighbor—your friend—your helper in time o f need— Don’ t you think you ought to trade with him, and be his friend and helper in HIS time o f need? # Don’ t you know that every dollar you send out o f your town for merchandise is sent to strangers—to men who have never spent a dollar in your town? You don’t save much, frequently nothing, when you send your money out o f o f town, and don’ t you know that the growth and pros perity o f your town depends very largely upon the success and pros perity o f the home merchant? Out-of-town people judge our city by the appearance o f our stores and the degree o f enterprise shown by our merchants, and our home merchants cannot succeed unless home folks give them loyal support.—Oregon Voter.
