Editor News and Citizen -
We are much pleased to see the disposition
manifested in our village to "spruce up and
repair and at the prospect of seeing few
new buildings so up in course of the season.
At the same time. before You advocate
boom beg you to study the following para
graph taken from the Kansas Financier: =
Zone of the greatest Affections that can be-
fall State or acommunity is to have boom.
The recovery is worse than plague Steady
growth and honest business methods should
always be encouraged and none other"
OLD FoGEY.
Our little item has accomplished
some good. 1t has awakened cold
Fogey" enough to get out of him an
expression of approval of the repairs
and contemplated improvements in
our village. IT'S wellf We believe in
booms, all the same; not the kind
that afflict the West and South, and
are gotten up to fatten the capital
lists purse and draw money from this
and other towns, but those that are
the result of a growth and honest
business y; those that encourage the
investment of money at home; these
that are caused by every man doing
his level best to build up his town.
The fact that every inhabitable build
ing in this village is occupied, and
that families that would locate here,
land who earn their livelihood here)
are obliged to seek homes in other
places because of the lack of dwell
ings, is a strong argument for a
boom. So we say open up new streets
and build houses, and thereby keep |
our money at home. This will cause
growth and prosperity and the result
will be a bOOm-an honest boom land |
we'll wager dollars to doughnuts no
disaster will result from it,
