WHAT DO YOU THINK 2
One publisher thinks the women
of his town will organize and use
their powerful influence In a cam-
paign for home trading, they will
do more good for suffering hu
manity than the W,C.T.U., mission-
ary societies,ladies' aids, ete., have
accomplisheor can accomplish..
Thio may be an exaggerated idea,
but that there is need of many
towns for such an organization
there is ample reason to believe. In
some respects home trading stands
higher than benevolence, because it
is better to be "just than to be gen-
erous, and simple justice demands
that thehome merchant shall re-
ceive the benefit of the trade of his.
town. The very success of a town
is largely boundup in . the people
-helping one another, Can people
of atown who do not help to build
it up themselves expect the people
of the surrounding country to do
so?
