Community Loyalty. f a community is worm living in, it should command an hi wj alty iii every sense of the word.

At- reeularlv recurring seasons trreat loads of mail order catalogues come into North Carolina,, rqany of them to this section, to entice busi ness away to the (larger cities. A news stdrV comine out of Raleigh a few davs ago reported that two solid carloads 6f these catalogs came into tB,at Htv last week for distribution to points in North Carolina, so as to enjoy the benefit of cheaper postage rates. These catalogues, are expen- sjye and .could not be distributed, if tU' Uiupc d-Utrihntinff them did Hot III V 11U VJ V-v v-"-""' - - Q) get much business from this form of advertising When one sends-ouUxii town or away from the local stores for things that can be .bought at home, ne is killing the goose that lays the golden egg. When one wants a tew pounus of sugar.' a spare part for his auto or some farm machine, or a doctor to vjsjt a sick patient, he does, not send I .... l-i .!- 1 LI away to tne city, xci me merman i. the caraceman." the doctor, or others wn0 sell goods or service cannot ex- is t on rush orders only. .If the mat ter were carried to it elusion, it would - mean that toe smaller towns would cease to grow, and perhaps retrograde. If this hap pened, property values would decline, the greatest source of support for the churches, the. school, and other soyal institution would be destroyed. No one would want to live in a town like that. Yet that is the sort of a town one is tending to make when he con stantly sends away from home to buy what he could buy at home, une should consider it his or her duty to buy at home, even though it may cost a little more, tor one obtains nu living in the community .and every dollar he spends at home comes back to him in some form. Most buying away from home is through thoughtlessness. The mail order houses have made it easy by putting well illustrated catalogues into the home. Many orders no doubt leave this section because the people are not constantly reminded that they can be had at home. A little advertising on "the part of the merchants and a little more reflection ofl the part of the buyer before he sends off that next order for some thing that can be bought right here at home, will make this' a much more prosperous community. Let's be loyal in buying as well as with words of praise about our town. The Chero- kee Scout. Harmony News. Mr. Scott Allen went to Franklin Saturday on business.
