Wliat sort of town do you want to live in? There is onlyoneanswer to that question. You want to 'live in the live town and enjoy all the good things that come to the resi- dents of such aq community. Community With Such a Reputa- tion Suffers as From a Pestilence. RESTS WITH THE CITIZENS People Can ' Create - and Maintain Prosperity If They Will Keep Their Money at Home lo Circulation. - frL'1'•,'' _.t.— ,.i%-j-er (Copyright.) "Stay away from that town. ft's a dead one." Do you want that to be .said of your town? Of course you don't, for you wish, as a matter of local pride, it for no other reason, tphave your town stand High in the estimation of the world. But are you' sure that you are doing everything in your power to place your town in the position. whichyou wisii.ierto occupy? That 19 the question that every person should ask ,himself or 'herself at frequent intervals. " When things' are running• smooth- ly, when times are good, 'and when it is fairly easy to make a good living for the wife and kiddies, It is so easy for a man to forget that these things do not come to a town as a matter of course, but arp the result of the right kind of effort on the part of the citizens of the community. It is so easy for a man to grow careless and think that because this condition'ex- isted it will continue to exist 'without any effort on his part or that of the other residents of the community. That is why it is important for every one to stop and think seriously once in a while about what it would mean to him if the prosperity that makes life worth living for him should take wings and fly away, Nobody Loves a Dead Town. Nobody likes to live in a dead town. No one even likes to visit a dead town. That is why you some- times hear that warning, "Stay away from that town. It's a dead one." The town which has the reputation of being a dead one suffers as if from a pestilence. Business men seeking new locations will have none of .it. The live travelling salesman, even, will give ita wide berth. Those who .. live in it will _eel a-_ if thee. ca:. Answer Easily Found. The .only question then is as to how these prosperous conditions can be created or maintained and it is the easiest thing in the world to find the answer to that question. If the people of a community will keep their money at home and keep it in circulation among themselves, they need have no feat' of ever being compelled to live in a dead town. If the people will patronize their own business men instead of sending their dollars to the mail order houses, the prosperity of the community will take care of itself, The Focal stores, to a very large extent, make every town. The taxes paid by the businessmen of the com- 'in-unity are the principal support of the 'schools and public institutions. It; is the taxes paid by the .store- keepers, to a large extent, that make possible the public improvements, the fire protection; the street light- ing and the many other things which make a town ,worth ,living in. The mall order house does not' pay any taxes in the town from which it gets its money. It does not help to sup- port the schools or the churches. It does not help light the streets or maintain thb fire department. It is the aim of the mail order houses to drive small town merchants out of business, so that the people will be compelled to send to the cities for their merchandise and they are spending thousands of dollars every month to accomplish this purpose, if they should succeed, who would pay the taxes that are now paid by the local merchants? it's a certainty that the mail order house would not pay them. . Issue Is Clear Cut. Every dollar spent at home helps to snake the town a live one. Every dollar sent away fret/home to the mall order house helps to make the town a dead one. The issue is a clear-cut one and is squarely up to every resident of the community, whether a resident of the town itself or of the country sur- rounding it. The man who does not caro whether he lives in a live or e dead town, if there Is such a man, need waste no thought on the sub- ject, but the man who wants 10 live in a live town cannot get away from it. It is up to him to make his town a live one or a dead one. LIVE MERCHANTS recognize Advertising not as an expenditure, but as an In- vestment.
