He works hard, tries to make his store attractive, endeavors to purchase merchandise his customers want and which he can sell at a profit, and stay in business, meeting the costs of operation after taxes and other constantly mounting expenses are paid. He belongs to the Chamber of Commerce, he is the first person everyone thinks of when contributions are wanted for the Red Cross, the Cancer Fund, aid to the schools. ? Hes the No. 1 person on the list when solicitation is conducted on any types of funds. He's the one to whom everyone turns when they have tickets to sell for a drawing. He gets the first call when solicitors for the Salvation Army and other worthy charities come to town The parade never ends it runs on like a brook, and how the retailer in this and every town can face these unending funds, meet them with a smile, reach for the check book or refuse (still with a smile), and remain in business is one of the miracles of this and every Main Street in America. Lets give the business man in our community a pat on the back for the many contributions he makes every year-a- nd then let's go a little farther. Why dont we make it a point to try and buy everything we can in his store? Instead of parsing him and going to some larger merchandising center without even giving the home town merchant a chance to make a tale, why cant we be fair and see him first, tell our needs, and inform him if he doesnt have the merchandise on his shelf. We might even tell him that what we need isn't only a matter of price but of quality, that we want the best that can be had, and give him an opportunity to order it for us. We would have a much better and a more progressive town and community if we took time to consider the innumerable things our local merchants contribute for the betterment of alL Often they are unsung and unappreciated loyal citizens who do many fine things for all of us which we may tail to realize. Our town can be juat as fine, modern and progressive as we are willing to make if if we cooperate in every way, by giving all possible patronage to those to whom we turn whenever we need contributions or aid in promoting local and community projects.
