Greater Goderich, 1918-05-10, Page 3GREATER GODERICH Published through the co-operation of the Board of Trade, the Goderich Signal and the Goderich Star for ten days, beginning May 7 in the interest of the campaign for an aggressive and well- financed Board of Trade. CAMPAIGN COMMITTEE G. L. Parsons C. L. Moore Geo. Porter Local News Items for Greater Goder- ich should be left at The Star office with Mr. Naftel. Advertising copy should be left at The Signal with Mr. Robertson. Letters and suggestions for the Greater Goderich campaign should be left at the office of the Board of Trade in the Masonic Temple, or mailed to that address. MAY 10, 1918 WHICH ROAD ? \Vho are you going to follow in this campaign, the men that are willing to give their money an get out and work for the general growth and pros- perity of the city, or those who will neither give their money nor work ? Which class is going to do the most for the city ? Which class is most unselfish ? Are you being influenced by some man who really wants to see this great movement fail simply because he docs not want to invest $25 a year in the future of his own home city ? It is time that the people of Goderich be 'cataloged. We should know those that are willing to put their shoulders to the wheel, and those who are willing to profit from the growth of the city but won't help to pay the price. Goderich today stands at the fork of the road. One road leads to honest effort with the possibilities of reward in the shape of increased growth and, prosperity for the city. The other road leads to Lethargy and decline. Before this campaign is over you must make your choice as to which road you want the city to follow. CO-OPERATION In the dark ages of ignorance, com- petition was thought to be the life of the trade. In the bright, clear light of modern intelligence, it is seen that co- operation is the thing on which busi- ness grows fat and prospers. THE DOING TWINS Organization and efficiency are the twin forces which make for business success today. They are the two forces which make for effiectiveness in the commercial organization which is the factor in the upbuildrng of the progres- sive city. • REAL SELFISHNESS Community effort is the most en- lightened and intelligent form of sel- fishness. Work in behalf of the com- munity brings the big reward to the individual as well as to the whole group of individuals. THE ONLY WAY Without co-operation, without team work, a city can accomplish nothing. The men of a city must stand together 4-4-H4++++++4 1 1: I 11 1 I++ MacEwan Estate 4- Sole agents for the D.

TOGETHER if i;oplerich is to go forward and take its rightful place among the cities of Canada its business and professional men must ail 1,0 united and working to- ,etltc. to the common end. THERE'S A REASON Cities do not "just grow." They are etcher what their united forward -think- ing citizens make them or they are that negative nothingness which is al- ways associated with helpless drifting. NO PROGRESS THEN When the organized effort of its citi- zenship, expressed through a modern commercial organization, is lacking, a city does not progress.
