DOLLAR SPENT HERE
MEANS PROSPERITY
Every Cent is Cash contibu-
ton to Every Resident in
CIarksburg.

A dollar spent in Clarksburg is a
cash contribution to every citizen of
the community. 1t goes further and
secures more benefits in every way
when left at home than when sent
to the distant mail order house.
When the money is spent in Clarks-
burg the merchant Is enabled to
maintain a full working force, at a
maximum wage. The home manu-
facurer secures deposit for the
home bank; the home bank has suffi-
Gent funds to make easy loans to
the business man who needs accom-
mediation. The home-kept dollar is
the only possible chance for a per
manent prosperity.
The home-spent dollar is a grow
ing. expanding, liquid" dollar. It
ts a quick investment and earns
dividends for the entire community.
1t is rapidly turned over" and earns
compound interest for every branch
Of business.
The dollar spent in Clarksburg
by the Clarksberg man is a glad,

OF good cheer to q neighbor. It
furnishes no pleasure to the tired

makes no contribution to the COM

The Clarksburg dollar is the

Every dollar sent to the distant mail

Germany has grown commercially
rich and powerful because her people
have learned the lesson Of co-opera-

a pride in supporting home indus

German that his money does not earn

a victory for Senator John Wal

is no great surprise to find the
