Two Ways to
Become Prosperous

There are two ways for q busi-
ness man TO become more prosper
The first is by active CON-
petition among his neigbbor=. Il
he is 2 live one he realizes to the
full the Law Of life. that he must
hustle. or young and brighter men
will get ahead Of him He must
get out AFTER trade or he will get
out OF trade.
But an additional prosperity can
be realized as the result Of sue
cessful competition with your
neighbors, by united efforts to make
the home town grow.
The advance Of a whule cUmmun-
ity brings an a~ccretion to every
one who owns real estate or a bust
ress. or who has an income depend
ent on the prosperity Of his neigh
bors.
This increment brings q rev
prosperity withou. much effort. As
your house lot grows in values the
more houses are built around il 50
your business grows more valuable
as more people read your adyertis-
ing or pass your door.
No ran is doing bis duty by his
own business unless he sets apart a
certain modicum of effort to be de-
voted to measures to make his
home town grow
Any town can be made TO grow
by systematic and common sense
efforts to attract new residents and
industries. Communities are like
stores Il takse advertising to attract
interest and attention.
Often il is not advertising
spread broadcast that lands new
business. II every community does
all il ear to help its own young
men who have new enterprises
start, ii lays the foundation for
concern that will become prosper
Gus and bring people to the town.
A dozen active business men who
have faith il the future Of their
own town who will give some time
each week to working out plans and
advantage Of opportunities
that would otherwise pass unnot-
ICED, can work wonders.
