Show oo HOW TO HELP BUILD i UP THE SCHOOLS Hero Is an appeal to the mothers In favor of the home merchant which strikes us as a very strong plea: "Mothers of this community! "You havo children to educate. You want good schools that your children may havo advantages equal to those given the children of the mail-order man. ''Do you not know that when you ! buy of the mall-order man Instead of tho merchants of this city then you are taking away from tho opportunities your children should, have? "The schools are supported by taxes of which the mall-order man does not pay one cent in this town, but tho money you aro sending out of this city means greater wealth and more money in the school funds of some other city, and less wealth and less money In tho school funds of this city. "Why not assist in educating your own children? "You can do it by spending your dollars with the merchants who are assisting in keeping up the schools hero Instead of sending them to the mall-order man. "You mothers can be boosters for this city and your own childron If you will." nn |
