Now, ie it not possible for each ono of
us to emulate that spirit of solidarity—
that wholesome loyalty to our own
people, to our town cared to ourselves?
Can wo not Dee that in so doing we will
not only help onr neighbors but will
materially help ourselves. It would en-
large our business and our social life.
It would oleo increase our self-respect,
It is a mistake to think you save any-
thing
nything by acting in a contrary way. As
a matter of fact you, can supply your
needs in Wingham just as economically
as in any place in Canada, even in the
large places where it coasts more to do
buoinese, ,where taxes ate greater and
where the core of living in higher, with
consequent higher prices for labor and
help of all kindo.
Let us get together and see if we can-
not give Wingham a new impetus. It
would mean a new expansion to oar
town if each individual member of the
oomnaanity would resolve to henceforth
do all his or her shopping right here in
Wingham.
