The location OF large industry in
Reynoldsville is a necessity II the towr
is to continue to grow and keep in the
front ranks, and In this day and age, wher
every town is looking for new indus
tries, it behooves our citizens to awaker
and take active steps towards inducing
industries to locate here. We have cheaI
fuel, good railroad facilities, admirable
sites, &C., in fact everything is in oul
favor, but these things must be brought
to the attention OF capitalists looking
for locations. 1t may be necessary fol
the people Of town to take stock in som,
of the industries to get them to locat,
here but there would be no hesitancN
in taking stock when the people are sat
isfied that it is good thing.
