Show M C1IAMTY NOT THE ONLY ONE. H Charity begins at homo, of courso. But it H isn't tho only thing possessed of that charactor- H istic. Business begins at homo, too. That is H where prosperity starts. And tho more oohosivo H tho offort of each, tho moro substantial and H lasting tho prosperity of all. H Tho Commercial Club urges all of us to buy H buttons at twonty-flvo cents a but, adverting B Utah, booming Salt Lake and commonding the Hj Commercial Club. H They bought tho buttons in Now Jersey! B They could have gotten the buttons in Utah. H The Governor Spry buttons used in last fall's H campaign were made in Salt Lake City. They H were such good buttons that tho governor was H elected. They had merit, you see. And yet tho Hj Commercial Club, stringing Salt Lake men to H spond money for tho promulgation of tho gospel IH that Utah people should support Utah ontor- H prisoe, sends its good money clear to tho At- H lantic coast. H No Utah manufacturer's name appears on H the reverse side of these buttons we all are ring H bullied to buy. The business card of "The H Whitohoad and Hoag Company, Newark, Now H Jersey," is circulated with every purchase of a H Boost-for-Utah button. That's mnnyl H The buttons were ordered for distribution al a fair, round price while tho Wizard of the Wasatch hold carnival hero. In tho hurly-burly of thai carnival time it was expected that the buttons would go like hot cakes; that the spirit nf boost would bo so strong no one would go unbuttoned. Bui one of the results of getting your wares from away from homo is that you can't control delivery. The buttons didn't get bore tho first day, nor tho second, nor tho third. They didn't arrive till tho week following, and then tho people who sent good Utah money out of tho Slalo for goods that Utah could furnish, stirred IhomSolvos mightily to force thdir stale stock upon us. It was like a chagrined hostess, disappointed of guests, trying to sell her cold victuals to the peoplo who weren't invited. And these Utah peoplo now solicited to buy Iho buttons contributed the Utah money which was sent out of Utah to" pay tho button bill. Charity isn't Iho only thing that should begin be-gin at home. |
