! "g. A-J u j! L Who Pays I- r II The Community Bills ?| I This page is addressed to all of us, whetherwe be Merchant, Farmer, Professional Man, Manufacturer, Mechanic or Laborer. It is written primarily to show who spends the most money, or who is called upon to spend the most toward the general improvement and advancement of the community. Whenever any new hospital, church, community building, streets or any local improvement is considered, to whom do the solicitors go first, and what amounts do they generally ,ask from this first source in comparison with Other sources? Isn't it always the Merchant, Professional Man and Manufacturer, as a group, who is asked to bear the brunt of the load? This is not written to convey the impression that the merchant, professional man or manufacturer is the privileged class or better than the others. . .. - It is simply and frankly written to show con- II cretely who are the ones asked or who are con- || sidered the logical ones to head the list for prac- || tically all local improvements. Chain stores, as 11 a rule, refer you to New York or elsewhere, if II you desire funds for a worthy cause or move- II ment. You are requested to get in touch with II New York or elsewhere, or are told to come back II later. When you go back later your answer was 11 as before. II The Locally Owned and Operated Business II Men, Manufacturers and Professional Menal- II ways contribute to their utmost whenever any II worthy cause is started. It is only fair of them to 11 expect you and me to TRY OUR LOCAL BUS!- II NESS MEN first in order that he will continue to II have a surplus of returnable community money 11 for Improvements which we all share in, regard- II less of our occupations. Why not help to build II CAMDEN instead of New York or Boston? II Think it over. H TRADE WITH CAMDEN-O^NED STORES IRedfearn Motor Company i ford products | telephone-140 I L.
