The business men OF Canton are
patriotic and energetic and are ready
to help every legitimate undertaking.
Recent events have demonstrated
that they are not afraid to contribute
towards any public enterprise that
will make Canton a live town, that
will indicate that w are progressive
and willing to keep Canton in the
front rank as one Of the best business
towns in the state. Enterprising and
progressive business men can accom-
plisb anything within reason and along
this line we expect to see them pick
up the electric power dam project and
put it through. They can do it.
The investment will pay and the
power Is needed.
