When You Patronize Home Industries You are Doing Your Part Toward Build Rng Your Home Community. AND YOU ARE GETTING JUST AS GOOD GOODS AS MONEY CAN BUY. Some people buy blindly--- or thoughtlessly. They haven't stopped to consider that right here under their 4 nose---right in their own home community---that their + neighbor is getting his pay envelope from one of our local merchants who handle* just as good goods---at no higher pirice---than those they have bought from a Mail Order House. If they bought more of the goods at home they would help to create employment for more people. Our merchants are big contractors to the devel opment of' a community. They employ our home *people. The money you pay them goes right back to ome people. Buy Everything you can from Home Merchants Do Not Help Chicago or Some Other Big City Grow Help Laurens Grow
