HOPPER =| FURNITURE = FUNERAL DIRECTOR EE Telephone 99 YOUR DUTY —BUY AT HOME This is the first of a series of twenty-six editorials which will appear in the Times-A'dvocate on Community Buying. These articles are designed to impress upon the residents of Exeter the obligation which they owe to the community to purchase their needs from local merchants, a duty which they owe, not only ^to themselves, but also to every organization in the town. The Times-Advocate is an advocate of community buying because it believes that in the theory of buying at home and sup porting home industries depends the success and advancement of this town. The merchant is. responsible for the position we hold in the province today. Through his efforts our schools, churches and public institutions have been established as well as all civic rights which we enjoy. He has shown his confidence in the town and in you by establishing himself in business here, assuming the greater burden of taxation and community responsibilities. . .The Times- Advocate seeks to point the way to a greater an'd “better interest. This series of editorials is designed to benefit the merchant by securing for him your confidence and support, and by so doing enable him to render you a more efficient service. If this task is accomplished, much will have been done to place Exeter well up in the list of prosperous Ontario towns. PLUMBING PAINTS STOVES AND FURNACES Telephone SG S. B.

If the markets of the U.S. are made more difficult for ■Canadians some means will be taken to overcome the difficulty.
