STOP!
We say that to any man and
every man in Fairfield county who
at this time in deciding that there is
nothing to look forward to in Fair
field; to the man who is accepting
somebody's preconceived notion that
we can't succeed unless the mershants
do business on the old lien dasis and
that he cannot subsist on business
done on the amount of circulating
csah, that people are hoarding cash
and buying on credit, that the time
has not yet come for the developments
which should have been made twenty
five years ago, and that we should
wait a while to borrow money to get
right in the way of roads and streets
and all other permanent - -improve
ments.
Let us reason together and see if
this is true. Let's cast accounts and
see how the balance stands, if we can
afford to go forward or nominally
stand still but actually go backward.
And while looking to the future let's
not consider altogether the possibility
* of others coming in, however wel
come, and developing our resources,
but what can be done by ourselves.
Of course we have advantages to offer
seekers of manufacturing sites, but
that must not be all. What have. we
to offer to ourselves. WhMt advan
tage have we to offer our own up
growing citizens which will induce
therni to stay at home, instead of mi
grating to some other section or city.
When the last census was taking the
count showed that the population in
Winnsboro had not increased at all
for the preceding ten years. Did you
ever sit down and try to analyze the
reason for that? Why did the boys
move away to some other section ?
Is there a reason for their going ?
Why can they sheceed better some
where else than at home ? Of the~
dozens of young men of Winnsboro
who will soon graduate at college and
entel their life work, at various pro
fessions, how many do you know of
who contemplate locating here at*

themselves, but paved streets and a
clean town as an evidence of a spir
it of growth and an indication of a
place where one can succeed will both
attract and hold. There is born in a
fellow an innate desire for success,
an ambition to make a name for him
self. And where this ambition is de
nried in one place it will seek expres
sion in another. It is a current ex
pression that you can't keep a'good
man down; and it might also be truly
sR that you can't keep a young man

'go-getter. Our young men are our
greatest potential assets, and we must
keep them at all costs, even if it takes
paving the streets or making any oth
er improvements whereby his natural
inclinations ft. geing forward may
find expressioni.
Much has been said for and against
these permanent improvements as an
inducement to manufacturers locat
ing here. In times past manufact
uring corporations were not interest
ed in their workers or their living
conditions. When a town wanted to
attract a manufacturer it offered a
bonus of thousands of dollars as an
inducement. Now the style has chan
ged and manufacturers ARE inter
ested in their people and unless a
town is healthy and offers conditions
leading to right living and contented
people it will not attract. Manufact
urers even want to kpow what will
be the mental attitude of the town
people toward the operatives employ
ed by them. If our streets are pav
ed and the whole town kept clean and
attractive so the operatives will wish
to become citizens instead of resid
ents, instead of offering a cash bonus
as the inducement, we can say "We
have the equivalent of that bonus
in improvements which will make
people want to live here and work in
your plant. You will be assured of
good work because your operatives
enjoy their homes and are therefore
contented. Instead of cash we offer
the highest type of workman in the
world, one who takes pride in home
and product.".
And speaking of manufacturers,
we -always think of cotton mnills of
course. And; too, when we here think

for the discussion of conditions
business problems, was reached
hen Roger W. Babson announced a
definite turn in business and showed
1 wh fnaenalcodosicat
covery.
Standing before a Babsonchart
twelve feet high and thirty feet long
Mr. Babson explained the situation.
"I have been waiting for over two
years to be able to announce that the
most drastic depression in business
istory has spent itself. Fundament
11 conditions finally indicate that a
olid foundation is ready for general
'and substantial business 'improve
ment.
"The white line that I draw today
Thides the area of depression in half.
Statistically it means we are at the
exact bottom of the cycle. Practically
t means that business will -pick up
his fall and that it should continue
jto improve for the next two or three
years.
"Technically, the business cycle is
composed of the four succeeding
cycles of Prosperity, Decline, Depres
sion, and Improvement, but the aver
age business man experiences but two
1conditiqns. Either sales are increas
ng and business isfine or they are
1falling off and he is in deep depres
sion. His attitude changes, not , as
we pass from a period of prosperity
above -the XY Line into a period of
depression below, but as the white
lines are drawn which divide these
areas-when business changes its
direction.
"When we had completed half of
the depression in the middle of 1904,
business began to improve and busi
ness men went into a state of psych
ological prosperity almost over night.
We were running below normal to be
sure, but things were again headed
in the right direction.
"Early in 1907 the panic set in and
business confidence practically dis
appeared.. We did not enter the ac-1
tual area of depression until the fall
of that same year.
"In April 1908 another white line
marked the turning point and things
oomed again until the long swing
lownward set in about June 1910.
['his decline, while not drastic, kept
>usiness quiet until the middle of 1914
chen things again turned upward.
['he war with its feverish activity
ari%d us on until the middle of 1918
hen the actual rise had spent itself.
