Partners, Not Opponents,
The best way to build up a town is
to stand by every man in town. All
residents should be partners, wot op-
ponents. In all livelihoods the more
business your rival does the more you
will do. Every business man who
treats his customers honestly, courte.
ously and fairly will get his share and
the more business that can be secured
by united eflorts, the better it wiil be for
all. When a town ceases to grow it
begins to die and the more people try
to kill each other in their business the
more readily will utter ruin come to
all. Btand together for the advance-
ment of every citizen, If a man shows
ability to prosper do not pull him back
through jealousy or weigh him down
through cold indiflerence,
