The Barnwell (S. C.)

The People has this to say: Several days ago .a perfectly nice lady called us up and with tears in jhervoice reproved us for not men tioning the fact that she had a friend visiting her last week. We told her that she had not let us know anything about it and that, therefore, we did not'know that she had a visitor. Then she said, "Well, you should have known. I thought you were running n Tiflwsnaner."

We all realize the consequences of poor business, stagnation in com mercial affairs, depression of real estate values, low wages, etc. What w want Is plenty of business, money in circulation, a live interest In the building of houses, the sale of lots and acre property and a genuine healthy condition of business in our community. : ' HOW. SHALL WE ACCOMPLISH IT? ; . v ' - . ; The easiest thing in the world. Just keep, our money in circulation, right here among ourselves, and we .will create our own prosperous conditions. In other words, LET'S PATRONIZE OUR OWN BUSINESS MEN, IN STEAD OF SENDING OUR DOLLARS TO THE MAIL ORDER HOUSES. Let's be loyal to our own best Interestsinstead of helping to bolster up the big monopolistic establishments that are draining our resources of all the ready money in sight : , ' '. ;:: - ,''. - - ; It is the aim of the big city mail order houses to drive the small town merchants out of business, so that we. will till be compelled to send to" the cities for our merchandise. The big mail order houses are spending thou sands of dollars every month to accomplish this object. . they will do it, too, unless we are sensible enough to stop it. It is up to us to prevent the big' mail order houses from driving our store keepers out of business, for several reasons, the greater of which are that our community will be rubbed off the majp if we have no business concerns and that our ownership of property here will not amount to anything, in this The local stores, to a very large extent, make this town. The taxes paid by our business. men are the principal support of our schools and cfiurches.' It is the taxes paid by our storekeepers tb;at pay for the local Improvements, for the street lighting, for fire protection and for all other communistic privi leges and protection. , N . If we permit the big mail order houses to drive our business, men out of competition,, what will we have-left? A place -of empty store buildings, an undesirable place in which to live. I ' - If the mail order houses accomplish their purpose It is possible that railroad interests will decide there is iiot sufficient' business to warrant tie stopping of trains here because there will be no reason, then, for traveling men to stay over in our town,! no freight! to be delivered to our stores. In such cases we wilr be trying ui'yurs, wr wuu win miuts. it a guoa town? . . ' ' ' . ': " :-- But this is just what we must exp'ect if we keep sending our dollars to the mail order houses, for it is only, the' business of the town that makes tho town possible.. V . When we send practically all of our business tar the mail order houses In the cities there will no longer be a necessity for, or a reason for, a town. here. It all resolves itself into the question:. SHALL WE HAVE A PROSPER OUS TOWN, WITH GOOD LOCAL BUSINESS, GOOD . REAL ESTATE VALUES, GOOD WAGES AND GOOD MUNICIPAL DEVELOPMENT, OR SHALL WE HAVE A DEAD TOWN, WITH PIGS ROOTING IN THE PRIN CIPAL STREETS, STORE BUILDINGS EMPTY AND WITH "FOR SALE" SIGNS HUNG UP, NO LIGHTS AND, NO FIRE PROTECTION. ; TTt ATT T T7OrrC TtTTTTT TTC1 ' "TT7T71 A T T1 mTTTl ATnn - TTTI-TT-VT- " " VVX" .

" Shall we expect help and assistance from the mail order monopoly? We all know that the mail order houses do not pay any. of our local . taxes. They do not support our schools, or churches or help to pay for our lighting the streets or for our fire department. Every dollar. spent at home means added wealth, added prosperity, added real estate values and added facilities of all kinds. Every dollar sent to the mall order houses means mre unfair competi tion for our storekeepers and less taxes toward the support of our com munity. WThich do we prefer? We must make the decision. Are we for or against our community? - LET'S MAKE IT A LIVE TOWN BY KEEPING OUR MONEY IN CIR CULATION AMONG OUR OWN BUSINESS MEN. Merchants Association of Hendersonville CAPT.

Canary birds are placed in coal mines to protect the lives of the min ers. If the atmosphere becomes foul. I?he canary stops singing and begins to show unmistakable signs of distress. Then the miners know theatmosphere muet be Changed quickly or they must get out. " - ' Chautauqua Yersus Canary. - ' A Chautauqua 'is to a town what a canary is to a coal mine.' c If the intel lectual and moral atmosphere of this town is such that a Chautauqua can't live in it, then we must change the at mosphere or get out. : To get out is not convenient and we might find the same conditions elsewhere. No cor poration is going to abandon a rich mine because the atmosphere is bad. They will change the atmosphere. Cowards . may "pull up stakes" ana leave a town because of unfavorable conditions, but real men and women will sinrply stiffen up their backbones ' and change the conditions. 1500 Southern Towns Like Ours. i Between the Potomac and the Gulf , of "Mexico there are fifteen hundred -towns like outs.
