q building lot to. some large business enter
prise, and therefore enhance the value Of
town property. 3. Induce business men to
locate in your own town. 4. Patronize the
business men of your own town. s.. Always
sum up your expenses when you visit places
outside of your own town to buy goods. 6.
Speak well of worthy public enterprises. Z.
1t anything should be undertaken that NAV
be of benefit to the town, do not speak i'll Of
- to others because you happen to be pre-
JUDGED against it. 8. Speak we'll to stran>
gers of your town and people. 9. If you
have any surplus money, do not invest it in
far of speculations, but give yourself and
your town the benefit of it by establishing
some profitable factory.
