HI; LOYALTY TO OUR COMMUNITY ? ,r ?! i a l.ui an un izkis? f=\ IX) 1 A FAIR SHARE OF MY DUTIES TOWARD THE COMMUNITY IN WHICH I LIVE? Let us discuss the subject,, fairly and openly. In the llrst place, we each owo something to our community. Wo each ' crlvo benelits and profits because of our association with the community of rhlch we aro each a part, making us each responsible for a fair proportion f tho cost of maintaining the support of the community. The physical responsibility Is represented by the taxes we pay. Too lany of us are satisfied with tho perfunctory performance of that part? saving the moral responsibility to others. In other words. WE ARE TOO EASILY INCLINED TO RELIEVE THAT "HE PAYMENT OF OUR TAXES RELIEVES US FROM ANY AND ALlJ LE8PONSIRILITIES IN CONNECTION WITH THE COMMUNITY IN VIIICH WE LIVE Wo are inclined to forget that tho many comforts and conveniences, both a a social and a business way, which wo find in our community, are ours ecause of our association with our kind; with others who have invested heir dollars and their efforts hero, Just as we have ourselves. We expect our associates to bo loyal to us and to our community and we, t least pretend, that we are loyal to them Are we loyal? If we purchase our necessities and luxuries from mall order houses, we | re not loyal to our associates in the community, because we then show no ppreciation of the r endeavors to supply the members of the community dth these things. We are n >t helping our associates to maintain their estibshments, which con be successfully operated only with C'ir co-ope;ration and upoort. If v.e send our dollar^ out of town?to the mail ord r house. ?w- can nly expect that the tine w'll qulr.hly come when we must end to th - notl rJer hovres for ?veryi!-lno we require, because it lr on'/ n">'u that our >cal h 'imi- houses will b oome discouraged if we do not potro i te ' tern nd buy our merchandise from tlvm, and go out of busmc. ;. ! - An Ml v ) '. but r.

In our home ro . irillv, i Ill be Hi" on< t to profit he > o must then semi to them for all wo equire iti the wry >f merchandise. It 1m not Impossible, although It is admittedly Improbable, that when the inll order houses shall have driven competition from the field by eliminating ur local merchants, with our aid, foolishly tendered through our sending rders away from heme, that there will be a readjustment of prices so that re must pay more for the things we buy. At any rate, we should bo cornel led to pay whatever prices the mail order houses might choose to charge s, with no competition against them to protect us. At any rate, we are really trying to cut our own throats when we send ur money away from home. Loyalty means more than a mere perfunctory ppreclatlon of the efforts of our local merchants to supply our necessities, or it means that we are conserving our own interests and protecting ourelves against the exactions of monopoly. We are fighting for our own proection against the conditions which are bound to come unless we help our seal storekeepers to maintain their business relations with us and to stand etween us and the big mail order concerns which are lying in wait to take heir business away and compel us to send to the big citie for everything we equire In merchandise.

LOYALTY IS THE It' II t .1JY DOLLARS CO:-:S EOHE TO T:CCOT || j ? VERY far mi r who make, our town his market place lias an Interest in fOft this community. The fact that l.e is a member of the community makes much difference to him when he considers that the prosperity f our town is his own prosperity. Rut when he sends his money to the mail order houses 11E DOES NOT TOP TO THINK THAT HE IS NOT HELPING TO PAY THE REQUIRED | 'AXES IN HIS OWN COMMUNITY; not that he does not pay his own legally 1 bsessed taxes, but that he is not helping our local merchants to pay the taxes , ecesBary 10 support the community. The mail order man has absolutely no interest in the community. He lays the part of a fisherman?strolling about, casting a line here and there, /here he thinks the best fishing Is to be found, and after pulling out the fish e departs. The mail order man does not contribute to the upkeep of the ommunity. He merely takes away from It. When a farmer sends his dollars to the mall order house he prevent* a ertaln amount of improvements, say, for instance, In road building, here in ur county. The mail order man does not help to build our roads, but the seal ptorekeeper does. - - - ... If we keep the dollars at home they will keep on helping us all. Dollars, I pent at home, come home to roost. They come back In the upkeep of oui4 own and county institutions. We have none too many dollars at the most i our community and It seems a shame to send any of them away to the tail order houses, where we will never see them again. The dollars we send away help the mail order man to take a vacation i Europe or at the seashore. THEY HELP HIM TO MAINTAIN HIS AUTOlOHILE ANI) TO RIDE ON PAVED ROADS. If we keep these same dollars at home they will help us to have better oads In our own county. Of course, the mall order man pays his taxes in be city, which helps to pave the streets of the city, but we here In our own don't benefit by that. Therefore, the best thing for us to do Is keep ur money at home, where It will do us some good. OUR LOCAL MERCHANTS WILL USE THE DOLLARS TO GOOD AD- I 'ANTAGE BY HELPING TO PAY THE TAXES HERE?THE TAXES RE-' IUIRED TO BUILD GOOD ROADS EVERY DOLLAR SPENT IN OUR IOME TOWN MEANS IMPROVEMENTS AT HOME. The merchants of our town deserve the patronage of the people In our ommunity. They are a part, a very largo part, of the community and they ay a major portion of the taxes. The more business they do the more taxee bey must pay and the more taxee paid Into tho county treasury, the more Tip rove merit? we can have. Unless we are careful and watch our own Interests we will find out to ur cost that the ultimate result of the mail order schemo will bo tho cenralizatlon of all of the country business In the largo cities and the absoluto eatructlon of the financial Interests in tho small cities and towns The only ?ay to prevent this Is to stop sending our orders to tho mail order houses. , Let the dollars come home to roost. That Is the only way. and they will ome home to roost if we do not send them too far away. The dollars spent >cally will circle around and keep things lively, but if sent away we must et more dollars from outside to take their place- It is not always an easy tatter to do this. THE SAFEGT THING TO DO IS TO TAKE NO CHANCES. ' UT TO SPEND THEM AT HOME WITH THE LOCAL STOREKEEPERS. If we had any expectation that the,mall order man would ever do any- 1 hlng to help our community, thine might bo different. But there Is no hance. He conies to us In the garb cf an artful dorelver, with gross mis- , epresentntlons, false promises and a record of disappointments. But wo welcome the opportunity to again place ourselves on record as being his upes. There Isn't a grain of kindness in his whole makeup. He demands is cash In advance and gives you that which he wishes to send You have o redress. You have no rights that he Is bound to respect. The mere fact that we are elllv enouah to send our monev swav. out of ur own community, to a atranger, thereby injuring our own business prosects and jeopardizing our own prosperity, justifies him In believing that h* an take the most outrageous liberties with us. Rread cant on the waters will return, not ho with dollars sent to the mall rder house. Turkeys will como homo to roost, If somebody does not catch icm.
