No town will become a good business
center SO long as its business men rely
on a few merchants to bring trade to
town. Too often the men in few lines
of trade are about the only ones that
reach out after custom. Other merchants
wait until these men induce these people
to come to town, and content them
selves with trade that naturally drifts
to their place. A public-spirited man
should ask himself if he is doing his part
to attract people to come to town tc
trade, in helping the entire business
