BEST QUALITY MG STORE THE HOME TOWN —By E. M. Trowern, Secretary, Minh, ion uoard, Tho Retail Merchants ASse. dation of Canada, Inc., Ottawa. The place where most people con- gregate in a village le the country store. It is usually a PoStoffiee, the place where the farmers exchange their eggs and butter, the committee room for the politician, the headquarters for countryside gossip, a meeting place for 'friends, and iDe place where the merchant is supPosed to keep every thiog from a needle to au anchor. It --------- is from these centres filet the villages develop into towns, and the towns Into cities. The more the merchant pros- pers the better the village prospers and so it is with towns and cities. Goods in the retail stores in New • ,York are of little value to the people of Canada. They want to be able to go into the shops in -the place In which they live and examine goods, price them, order them, and either take them • home or have them delivered. They want to know also that the goads they , select personally are the goods they get, and this is where the local mer- chant will always have the advantage over the mail order bouse system', which means that when you buy goods you must rely almost entirely upon the I selection by other people, and not upon your own judgment. Perhaps the best i • illustration that can be given of the 1 advantages of buying In the home town l will be understood by those who are • familiar with the question of selling boots and shoes at retail, and the cor- rect fitting of -same. ri'Pe Royal gar* OF CANADA incorporated 1869.

Although not generally mentioned, when the development of a city is questioned, the first thing that strikes 1.8 stranger when he enters any city or . town is the character of the shops in that city or town. If they are poorly kept and poorly stocked, with unpaint- ed fronts. the town can he considered to be on the decline. 0 the store fronts are well painted, and the 'stocks • well kept, and the retail merchants alert to their business, the town is al- . ways prosperous, and it becomes an attractive place for the farmers and mechanics to congregate. it generally develops into a community hub. anti • the effect is reflected in the homes and in the surrounding farms. The nearer a good hum is to a thriving city, town or village, the more valuable the farm becomes, and the more valuable that term becomes, the better will be the business done it1 the cityoetown or village. In this way the Miele com- munity thrives. Buying in the home town, therefore, means very much more than appears on the surface. It benefits both the buyer and the merchant. I helps to improve the streets, to reduce taxa- tion, to add to the enjoyment of life, to bring the, goods that are wade at a distance to a common centre where they are needed, It circulates inoney, giving all an equtth chance to secure soine of it, and in this %New buying in Interior and Exterior Decorating We protect your floors, NMI, • ture, etc., by plenty of drop sheets.
