These promotions are aimed at you, the homemaker, in an at- tempt to have you shop at home and support your own community. Lucan merchants are proud of their stores, their selection of merchandise and their comparable prices. They are presenting first class merchandise at a reasonable price and in doing so are provid- ing a service for the community. Progress is touching Lucan with the installation of a new sewer service and various community projects. A community can only grow and progress if everyone gets behind it and works. This in- cludes shopping at home. The dollars spent in Lucan help the town grow through providing employment es well as paying taxes to subsidize improved facil- ities. There is no other way for a town to grow. This year when you start your Christmas shopping turn first to the local merchants, examine their merchandise and Lind what many people have known for years — true value lies in shopping at home.
