YOUR LOCAL MERCHANT Confidence in your community is a great thing. Support of Exeter merchants by the residents of tho town will make their business boom, result in an era of business prosperity and make itself felt in al! local activities here. Taxes, will become lower, in­ dustrial plants will locate here, better working, conditions and more employment will prevail and the lot of the people will be made infinitely better. Exeter will grow, its residents will become more happy and prosperous, and good times will result. If you lack faith in your merchant -and town and-go to neighbor­ ing or foreign cities to buy your household goods, these other places will receive the benefit of your trade and grow at the expense -of Exeter. And you will re'ceive no benefits from tlie growth of other cities. Hold to your community and your success is assured. Do not be led to other cities by misrepresentations. Your merchant is honest. He knows you and will do his best to serve you faithfully because he wants your trade. The merchant in other 'cities does not care a thing about you, except to get your money. You are no friend of his, and he is not the man to give anything away. If you pay him less you get an inferior article. And the next time you will pay him more. ,1-Ie wants only your money, yvur home merchant also needs your friendship. . Support him. You both will benefit greatly.
