No town will become a good business center so long aa it's busi- ness men rely on a few merchants to make the effort to bring trade to town. Too often the men in a few lines of trade are about the cn!y ones that reach out after custom. Other merchants wait until these men induce the people to come to town and content them selves with trade that natur- ally drifts to their place
