Let every citizen be loyal to the
home town. Always have good word
to say for it to strangers and friends:
never let your personal feelings, jeal-
ousies or prejudices creep in or allow
you to say one word against your neigh

your town an injustice, but you hurt
yourself more than your enemy. Any
man conversant with the world will no.
tice the venom in the talk of the man
who has bad word for his business OPP
ponent and the result is nearly certain
to be that of boomerang. The better
you speak of his business ability, the
more you praise his shrewdness and the
louder you sing his praise and popular
ity, the more surely your are to reap the
reward of being considered generous and
public spirited.
