scribed handsomely for stock to an
amount that leaves but few thousand
dollars to be raised to bring the aggre-
gate up to the minimum sum required to
assure success. Some Of our most acute
business men look upon the proposition
as good one to take hold of simply as
dividend paying investment, reasonably
sure of bringing excellent returns for
the money put into Ii. Not only this,
but as a home investment 1t helps place
on more desirable basis successful
business, established here by four of our
own citizens, and makes that business a
fixture in our town beyond peradventure.
These gentlemen ask no gratuity of our
people but do present to them what they
believe to be a good opening for invest.
ment of some of their surplus money in
home enterprise, where 1t will yield a
fair dividend and at the same time help
the business interests of the town. Our
citizens will, we believe, give this pro-
ject candid consideration and put in the
dollars necessary to make it successful.
