SPEND YOUR MONEY AT HOME.

This is a question of vital import
ance. If we expect to succeed in
oar own avocation we must be loyal
to the city and community in which
We look to for cur support. Every
man no matter what his avocation
is. depends on the assistance and
support Of those around him, let
him be a merchant, lawyer, doctor,
or engaged in any other business.
We all depend upon each other.
hose engaged in the different lines
CT business and professions in the
city. not only look to each other for
support but depend largely on the
farmer, and in like manner the farm
er could not get along without the
business and professional men of
the city, and so it is. we all depend
upon and look to those around us
for our support
Then is it not poor policy to send
our money away from home. Remem-
Der that every dollar that is sent
away from home is just that much
less in circulation at home, When
it is spent at home it may come
back to you again
1t is true the mail order houses
Ssend out large and expensive cata-
logues free, illustrating cuts, and
seemingly low prices, but when you
compare the goods with those Of the
home merchant, you will find if
quality is considered, that you have
saved nothing. What if you do not
have the money when you are in
need OF goods; viii the mail order
houses extend you any credit?. Then
is it not more satisfactory to buy
where you can see what you are
getting. Does your conscience prick
you when you go home with mail
order package under your arm and
a statement from your home mer-
chant in your pocket?
1t is not only through the chan
nels of merchandising that money is
sent from home How many times
do We send away for legal advice |
or medical service, with just as
good professional men at home. Did
fA MI hot Ipr
tors and attorneys are called upon
to administer and render service to
others who have done the same as
you? 1t is too much the tendency of
the people to think that what they
get away from home is better. II a
speech is required at a public gather
ing. it is better if from someone
away from home. If musical en-
tertainment is given by out-of-town
people. it was just fine, and the ap-
plause sounds loud and long. When
our home band, which is not excell-
cd by any, would render those fine
selections at our Saturday evening"
concerts. did we give them the en-
couraging applause?
1t all proves the saying of p. T.
Barnum, American People love to
be fooled Let us show our appre-
citation for our home people by spend

another and our accomplishments
will be greater If

JERSEYS NEW GOVERNOR
WARY OF WILSON LAWS
Saws There Should Be Careful IN
quiry Into Operation of the
"Seven Sisters"

TRENTON. \. j.. January 16.-Walter
f. Edge of Atlantic city. who became
Governor of New Jersey today, sug
gested in his inaugural address that
the so-caIied seven sisters" acts relat-
ing to corporations be carefully scan
ned to And out whether the state is
losing revenue and business prestige
without compensation. These acts, de-
signed TO prevent the fostering of
monopolies, were placed on the statute
books during the administration Of
Gov. Woodrow Wilson.
Gov. Edge said that at a recent hear
ing before special commission which
Is considering the question of revising
the corporation laws Of the state it
was the opinion of number of speak
ers that the seven sisters" acts were
so uncertain in language as to render
them almost nullity, though their ap-
parently drastic provisions have driven
from New Jersey many corporations
and prevented others from incorporat-
ing in the state. The governor further
said:
Il am not in favor Of letting down
the bars, but I do want to get this
revenue for New Jersey if it can be
gotten without fostering monopoly
Have the laws really suppressed
monopoly and extortionate prices? Are
the food spectators less active and
the popular outcry against monopoly
and eXtortion less vigorous after five
years OF the seven sisters? Has a
single prosecution been instituted under
these measures? Have they failed as
remedial agencies and have they sue
ceeded as destroyerS of the states
business and income?"
