(From The Hamlet News-Messenger) For a good many hundred years the world went along believing that all it took to make a business man was a • man “in business” who simp ly stayed in his store, shop or office waiting for patronage. Today, the man who does that is only partly a business man. A business man of today must know about and partici pate in many things other than his own business. A business man must get out and do things; become THE CHATHAM RECORD, PITTSBORO, N. C. familiar with what is going on; take a sympathetic view point with what others are ; trying to do. A business man must be on the alert for every influence, favorable or unfavorable, j that may effect his business. A business man must be : not only efficient in his own j line, but more or less of a business councellor for his community, and an advocate for all good movements in it. A business man is a man who looks after the business of making a bigger and bet iter community as well as a bigger and better business. His business will be only as his community is good for his business, and as his busi ness is good for the communi ty. The destinies of both com munity and individual busi ness are simjlar. In many ways, one depends upon the [Other. I Business has made America , prosperous. Business will now (have to contribute its share toward the enjoyment of ! prosperity. Our idea of being the world’s richest individual is to have all of the money that advertising makes for the ad vertiser over and above its costs. ( Good citizenship is a self imposed sentence for life at hard labor for one’s communi ty. And speaking of hard times, if you want to find out whether the depression is economic or poli tical wait until you hear the Demo cratic orators in the 1932 campaign. Only 82 days until the Christmas necktie wears out. *************** ] * * < * Bear Creek News * Amick Maulden, of Greensboro, is visiting his aunt, Mrs. W. A. Coggins, near town. Mr. and Mrs. J. F.

Skin erup tions are nature’s warning that con stipation is throwing poisons into your blood stream and weakening your whole constitution. Remove the constipated condition and you will strengthen your system against disease and clear up your disfigured skin. The best way to I I do this is with a course of Ilerbine, the vegetable medicine that acts natur ally and easily, which you cam get at Pittsboro Drug Co. Adv.
