LEWIS - The Home Merchant Has Earned Support "■j" A*1*HY are communities, towns and cities? Have you ever asked your- . I A / self this question? Did you think they just happened, or had you ^ ^ ever thought that there was a special.need for them? In the be* ginning o f time—as fallback as history takes us—we find that MEN HAVE BANDED THEMSELVES TOGETHER FOB MANY AND OB­ VIOUS REASONS, chief among which are the benefits to he gained from organized society as a social, intellectual, spiritual and commercial center., , Collectively we are strong, forceful and aggressive and possess power and means to attain a growth which will give to us and our progeny opportunities for better living—to develop our moral, spiritual and intellectual life, the things for which we were created. THEREFORE THE SUCCESS AND, HAPPINESS OF EVERY CITJ. ZEN OF ANY COMMUNITY LIES IN THE INTEREST HE TAKES IN THAT COMMUNITY ANO THE GOOD WORK HE CAN DO TO ASSIST IN ITS UPBUILDING. ‘ Now, then, if we are to succeed as Individuals and as j , community we must not only strive for our own personal success and welfare, BUT MUST GIVE OB’ OUB WORK AND SUBSTANCE UNSELFISHLY TO HELP THE OTHERS. Everything We do to help in the upbuilding and advancement o f our city we do just that much toward our own personal success. No man can live and . prosper auto himself alone, FOR WE ARE INTERDEPENDENT, and,, realizing this, If we as citizens will all unite and pull together for the common good, we will prosper as«a city and consequently as Individuals, Well paved streets and sidewalks, good sewerage system, thoroughly en­ forced sanitary laws, well regulated and energetic police force, competent fire fighting equipment and rigid building regulations are economic necessities and therefore they more largely affect us as a community than as Individuals. But beyond this and underlying it all and upon which rests the foundation of the whole la THE’ SUCCESS OF THE BUSINESS MAN. This man makes an investment, goes into some kind o f business—to manufacture or sell goods—* puts bis money at stake, employs labor and begins his work to build better THIS MAN IS THE CORNERSTONE OF THE COMMUNITY—the man you should rally around and support THE SUCCESS OF A TOWN DEPENDS ON THE SUCCESS OF ITS 1 BUSINESS' MEN, WHILE THE SUCCESS OF THE BUSINESS MEN DEPENDS ON 8UPPORT THEY RECEIVE FROM THE PEOPLE A t LARGE, EACH BEING, HOWEVER, DEPENDENT ONE ON THE OTHER. No merchant can succeed without the patronage of the public. He is abso* lately and entirely dependent on the custom of each and every individual who •has a penny to spend, the little mite of each, taken in the aggregate, making the volume on which he runs Ms business. The merchant having plenty of ..competition, must.in order to get the people’s patronage, figure his prices close and offw* to them the very best inducements possible. The merchant pays largo rentals, takes, privilege licenses, insurance, be* sides employing many clerks and assistants, In order to maintain and conduct bis business in such a manner as to meet your approval, and to succeed let me emphasize it agaln-HE MUST HAVE YOUR PATRONAGE TO MAKE HIS BUSINESS PAY. This community has some as fine stores—every kind—and conducted by as fine a set o f men as you will find anywhere on the face o f the globe—liberal, big hearted, progressive men. No better retail stores, no better wholesale op Jobbing houses, no better banks, no better mills, no better schools, no bet. ter churches, no better municipal or public utilities, can be fonud anywhere tbah right here In your homo town, all—absolutely all—made possible only by and through the cooperation and generous giving of the business men. But. my good friends, with all of these extraordinary accomplishments, there are some things being done today wMch are STUMBLING BLOCKS IN THE PATH OF OUB GREATER GROWTH and further develop­ ment— -Afferences, If you please, which we must reconcile and overcome If we are to continue to grow and. prosper.

Xen ia 's Exclusive Carpet and Drapery House A T home ports or at sea extra good / 4 rations during the Christmas hoL idnys are now a special feature on the United States warships. The supplies now served are lu marked contrast with thbse obtainable on the vessels nf the old navy far from home. 'Whenever possible tho ships are or- dered to home ports for Christmas, Shortly after arrival the men are put, to work. Inside and out—in cabins. In wardroom and about tho desk—there Is a swarm of seamen at work. Some will be painting, and others will be polishing metal work, railings, the mobster guns and brass instruments on the bridge. Shortly before Christmas all tho work will have been .completed. The ships will be spick and span, and tbe seamen will begin to prepare for laud. Those who nr© to go to their homes In the s.outh, middle west, New England and elsewhere probably will leave in time to reach home on Christmas. Others will savo expenses by remaining aboard ship. Hundreds of the good conduct men will have a whole week’s fur­ lough, and when these return others will go away. Some o f the men on furlough will not go home at oil. This may be. because their money will be too low to warrant the expense of a long Journey or it may be that they will bear the call of the big cities. At any rate they will arrange It nicely. They will spend the days ashore^and regard their ships as hotels, whither they may repair at night. ■ They need not bother about the time o f leaving or o f reporting, and they may sleep long after tbe bosun’s whis­ tle lias shrilled on tbe gun dock. Aside from the big dinner on Christ- mas, there probably will bo no set* functions, no minstrel shows, boxing contests or theatricals. The tronble WtU any such programs will be the absence on furlough o f the indispen­ sable endTmau or the popular tenor. The night before Christmas the popu­ lar streets will be filled with sailors in their wide trousers and their high col­ lared pea jackets. When they get enough o f feasting or acting or singing inside the steel cov­ ered hull there Is tbe open sea on wMch they row or sail for prizes, some­ times competing, among themselves, sometimes racing against tbe men of another vessel fratn home or against the crew of a vessel from another coun­ try. Added to nil these possibilities of diversion there la often the trip ashore, If the anchor happens to be lying near Distributing Gifts oh a Battleship. a port offering Inducement for Christ* mas or New Year’s revels. If one has a son. brother or a friend among the men serving on the ships of the American fleet In tho fat east to whom one proposes sending Christmas gifts, the following, taken from a little monthly published on one o f the .American battleships at Yokohama, Is timely: "Should yon wish to send him wear­ ing apparel, a pair o f ‘ pink garters ' would not bo out o f order, ns these be wears, but the pay . department has' overlooked them in the ‘small stores.’ Towels and handkerchiefs are accept­ able, and a Jackknife is n good thing. The bell strikes every half hour aboard ship, but a watch might save his being late for tho liberty boat. If you send him a good fountain pen ho may re­ member yon more frequently with let­ ters, and if he smokes send him a pipe, but cut out hand painted neck­ ties, cravat pins, slipper cases, collar boxes and embroidered pillowslips. Fancy socks will surely catch -the eagle eye of his division officer, and then he will be up against ’nonreg.’ Of course he would appreciate any­ thing you send, yet many things get spoiled In the bottom o f bis bag while waiting till Ms time Is out.” —New York Evening Post •TR A Y ED HOGS : S ix hogs Weighing from fifty to sixty pounds each strayed to m y p late.
