RIYING At HOME

The public quite often thinks that
this matter of buying in their own
home town is matter of selfish in
terest on the part Of the merchant.
The Chamber does not ask you to buy
in this city for the sake Of the mer-
chant The merchant like any other
man must stand or fall by his own
merit. But the Chamber does ask you
to buy everything you can here for
, the sake of Maysville and for your
own sake.
What Maysville would be without
retail stores? Your home would
be drug on the market. Property
would depreciate to next to nothing
There would soon be no community
Picture then the opposite. Suppose
all our stores were twice as large
with twice the stock and twice the
variety. Immediately our city would
be doubly, yes trebly important. Prop
critics would increase in value and ev-
cry citizen would share with it.
Consider then this certain fact: II
everybody in the town bought every
thing they use in Maysville our stores
and their stock would double and
triple in size This means that you
Br. Citizen, have it in your power to
increase the value Of your own prop
erty, to double the Importance of your
town and to multiply the property OF
your community.

IMPORTANT DAY IN SUNDAY
SCHOOL CONTEST

Tomorrow Is an important day In
the Maysvlle-Somerset Contest. The
attendance of men on Sunday will
come as near deciding Maysville's
chances to win as any day could. Both
schools have one point out Of five but
Somerset has the advantage for the
fifth point. Therefore Maysville men
must get the August point In order to
give them two points out of the first
three. From the increase in the at
tendance at Somerset the last Sunday
or two 1t is evident that Somerset Is af-
ter this third point too. The Maysville
class should be attended tomorrow by
every man connected with the class
and great many others who will be
visitors for the day. Maysville can
win If she beats Somerset's record
tomorrow, Sunday.
