Residents of Exeter and the surrounding rural districts must practice co-ordination and unity of effort to ensure the success of the entire community. Farmers, your market is in Exeter. Sell your wares in this town and buy your necesstiies here. Merchants, the farihers of this district are your patrons and friends. Buy their products and give them What their goods are worth. Then sell .them your merchandise on an honest’and co-operative’basis. Good-will and combined support for Exeter will result.' With such a. system in practice, this town will soon become a leading community. The money which the farmer pays for his ne cessities will remain here and that which the merchant pays the farmer wilh c0me back to him. The profits of trade will build . ' this community and not' go to the support of competing cities. You as residents in your community must adopt the spirit of co-ordination,’as well as team work. Make a concentrated effort to bring to Exeter the outlying trade, and by doing this you will build slowly but surely for a bigger arid better business’, and a better com munity in which to live.
