HOW TO INJURE YOUR TOWN

Run it. down to visitors as "slow' and ..dcad" and "holc of a place.
 Get all ycm supplies from another town or as much as possible of them from traders m outside ccntcrs.
 Look sorry when stranger talks of buy ing property OF settling in it. Tell him about all the people who have gone else where.
 Refuse to pay subscriptions to local m- stitutious, and when special donations are required stand off likewise. Then when a stranger comes along tell him local mstitu- ions just about scrapc along, and the com mittccs running them never do anything to advance them or pay off the overdraft that has been in existence for years.
 Talk about your go-ahead citizens as men who are always trying to get into the lmclght to serve some private ends.
 When a man gets enthusiastic in any public matter, tell him he'll soon get sick of that, and discourage him as much as pos siblc by finding fault with his methods.
 Don't subscribe to the local paper Bor- row it from your neighbor, or take the free copy that is supplied to the hospitals,
 Refuse to advertise in your local paper. People summing up the place from outside have a habit of looking for its business en- crgy in the advertising columns of the local press.
 Don't under any circumstances give your printing orders to the local printery. Give it to am outside firm. Then when any print ing is wanted for public function ask the local printer to do it as a donation. He's very good that way, doncherknow.
 When asked how is business in your town, always say "Rotten!" Nothing more need be said unless it is that you don't know how people keep their heads above water at all.
 Discourage sport in every possible way. Sport has a habit of bringing visitors to the town. Never encourage amusement of any kind, because it helps make people healthy and happy One of the essentials of personal and public damnation is to keep the place as dull as possible.-Ex.
