Fall in and Keep Step

Mssoua, with her many natural advantages, her
slightly location, her historic surroundings her unex-
amped transportation facilities and many other bless
ngs which contribute to her peoples wealth and hap
pness, ought to take foremost place among the
growing, progressive and live cities of the state.
The foundation is here to build upon whether that
superstrucre Of prosperity shall be built depends
her peope-upon the unity of purpose of her loyal
citizens.
If ALL will join hands and push and boost Mis-
soua will realize her highest ambitions and take that
place among her sister cities that she rightfuly de-
serves.
Missoula will rise when her people are determined
that she shall-when local pride triumphs
petty, personal and when the energy of
ALL is merged to accomplish something for the gen.
eral good.
Missoula will grow when every citizen makes res
outon to always buy everything they need from To-
cal concerns.
Always keep this fact in mind-lt's the lNDlVlD-
UAL EFFORT that goes to make up the whole
yours and mine
Don't be laggard-Gct IN LINE with the progress
of Mssoua and STAY there.
