THINK THIS OVER
Before you mail that order for merchan­
dise to an outside concern think it over
a few minutes. Perhaps you’ll change your
mind about mailing :t.
The dollar sent cut of town is gone for­
ever.
The dollar spent at home remains and
works for you. It circulates at home, either
in civic improvements, taxes, better schools
churches or goes into more merchandise
for your next needs.
Your neighbor tal es better care of your
needs and wants than does the stranger
who has no interest in you, further than
to get your dollars. Your merchant-neigh­
bor’s future depends upon holding your
confidence. He’s alv. ays here to make mis­
takes good.
When you spend your money with the
home merchants you help them, you as­
sist in fostering home industries. They in
turn help to build up the city, and to
make greater opportunities for you and
for your children.
Spending your money at home is like
putting mortgage up an it to come back to
you. Spending it away from home is simp­
ly bidding goodbye to it, and its further
usefullness to you.
