!. THE MAN ABOUT TOWN

Merchants who sit around and
complain of the encroachment
of the mail order houses, and
that encroachment in Jasper is
enough to keep two extra clerks
busy If the trade they get here
was given to Jasper, should pat
tern after l.. G.. Gustavel of
Monticello, Ind. He is in the
furniture, hardware and grocery
business in Monticello and what
he does in that business can be
duplicated in any other business.
He carries an ad every week in
the local papers and they are
live wires and mean something
Here is one of them: ''Our 48.
inch all-oak porch swing COM
plete with chain and including a
20 pound package of sugar, all
for 1926 Mail order price, (see
catalogue No. 81, page 545), is
So 95-you pay the freight, get
a swing only A inches long, and
no sugar. !" The people there
know they can get A swing in
Monticello and at what price.
And the price is lower than they
can get from a mail order house.
There are hundreds of things
which can be bought in Jasper
for less money than from any
mail order house on earth but |
you don't know it. You haven't
time to go around and inquire |
what the merchants have and
The mail order house comes to
your home with his ad and tells
you what he has and at what
price and gives you glowing
description of it. The local mer-
chant can get to you cheaper
han the mail order house can
md from one standpoint you are
lot blamed for trading with the
nail order house. But the
ruth of the matter is the local
nan handles the best goods for
ess money and he helps to build
lp your community and mine
'ut we cant help it unless he
ellis us what he has and at what
rice we can buy it at. If some |
f our local merchants would
wake up to the fact like the
lonticello man has, business in
his old town would pick up and S
he hundreds of mail order pack S
ges that are forcing our mail {
arriers to get larger vehicles to '
AIRY would grow thinner. &

Newspapers at best have to
print much that isn't ideal, be

conscientious judgments will
