BE OPTIMISTIC.

Do not admit that any town is
better than your own. There is too
much complaining about the dead
ness Of tt town, the unprogressive-
ne. Of its citizens, and the pervers-
lily of everything and everybody.
This kind of talk will never make
your business any brighter Re
member that whatever be the faults
and failings of your particular
pailiwick, that is the place in which
you have cast your lot, and that
your success depends primarily on
the towns success. Be optimistic.
If there is any royal road to sue
G SIS, it lies in that Convince your
s1lf, first, that you are doing bust.
ness in a community of intelligent
people, who are able and ready to
buy your goods if you can show
them that they are right IN quality
and price. Then get out and show
them That is what an advertise
ment is for-that is what your show
windows are for. You will be sur
pIised how infectious such a spirit
of enterprise is. 1t Will spread from
you to your next door nelghbor,
from him to the rest of the street,
and from that street to the rest of
the town. That is what you want.
Life and spirit in the town means
business and profits for you. Be
optimistic.
This advice applies to a certain
class of people in every commun-
ity. There are a few of these peo-
pie even in Lancaster. People who
never have a good word for the
town which gives them home, and
who seem to find satisfaction in de-
nouncing it as the poorest town in
the state.
They are like a certain class of
foreigners who come to this country
to enjoy its freedom aud who con
SANITY talk about the faderland,
aud attempt to belittle the land of
their adoption by e7ious compare
son.
1t is always mystery why these
people ever left the land of their
birth, or why they don't go back
and enjoy it,
The man who don't appreciate tn
town where his lot is cast, should
get out of it. He is datriment to
the community.
If there was ever a time when
people generally could afford to be
optimistic that time is today, and if
there is city or county anywhere
IN the land which presents a more
hopeful outlook than Lancaster
and the banner county behind it,
will someone please Locate it on the
map.
The man or woman who can't find
happiness in such pleasant and pros
porous environments, will be disap-
pointed with seat near the throne
later on.
Lancaster presents SO many at
fractions for home that many
more people should be privileged to
enjoy 1t.
Every citizen should be an en-
thusiast for Lancaster, for the
spirit of enthusiasm is contagious.

If one of you chaps comes across a
girl that, with face full of roses,
says to you as she comes to the
