pIeIeu wnen It's money is spent away
from home in a way that brings nc
return benefit to the community. It
takes no great amount of thought to
be able to realize that the town, like
the individual, cannot last long If 1T
Is paying out more money than ii
takes in. That does not mean that O
prosperous town is one in which the
people do not spend any money. On
the contrary, a prosperous town Ii
one in which the people do spend mon
ey but 1t is one in which they spend
the money at home. AS long as the
money is spent at home, the town
gains by having it kept in circulation,
but when it is spent away from home,
either by being sent to the mail order
houses or by shopping trips to other
cities, the towns capital is impaired
to that extent and If enough money is
spent away from home In that way,
the town collapses and virtually goes
into bankruptcy just as does the cor.
poration which dissipates its capital.
The people of a community are apt
to overlook the fact that they are
stockholders in their town and that
their fortunes are bound up with those
of the community as q whole. They
do not realize that If their town fails
they will fail with it. They-or many
of them at least-send their money
away to the mail order houses in the
great cities, without realizing that they
are impairing the capital Of their own
corporation and that If enough of them
pursue that course they will force their
corporation into certain bankruptcy.
Merchants Not. Only Ones Hurt.
Many customers of mail order
houses say that they are under no
obligation to trade with their home
merchants and this may be true. They
overlook that fact that the business
men of q town do much for their com
munity and are entitled, in return for
what they do, to the support of the
people In the community, but leaving
this out Of consideration, they over
look the fact that they are bringing
about their own downfall when they
drain their town of its money-its
capital.
The home merchant will not be the
only one that will be hurt when the
town sgoes broke" The merchant
can reduce his stock and cut down his
expenses and get along some way or
he can sell out and move to some 9TH
er town which has not been so blind
to its own welfare. It is the great
body of the people of the community
including all those who have sent their
money away to other cities instead of
spending 1t at home, that suffers most
when the hard times come.
The time for all the people to pull
together for a live town Is while the
town is still live and not after 1t is
dead, for when a town dies it Is q
long time dead-f not forever.
Grant County herald. [volume] (Lancaster, Wis.) 1850-1968, 1918-07-31

Arthur Roth, a Norwegian seaman,
made two big mistakes when he wrote
a letter in Philadelphia. He said the
American censor would not get hold
of the letter but if he did the writer's
punishment would be two years. The
censor did get hold of the letter and
Roth was given five years at Atlanta.
After ranting a while in the letter
Roth concluded with the following
GEM:
Liberty bell, we hear thy crazy
call. Liberty bell, it probably goes
to hell withal. Can't we hear the
Germans marching up Broadway, and
in their middle Pershing?'
A Rockford paper of Monday of
last week had the following to say:
The first increment of the eight
thousand selectives scheduled to reach
Camp Grant this week arrived today.
There were SGT men altogether, of
which 444 came on special trains
and SO IN regular trains. All of the
draftees hail from Wisconsin, COM
ing from the district including the
towns Of Baraboo, Lancaster, Deer
field, Grantsburg, Prairie du Chen
and Superior. The men who arrived
today were met by officers of the 161st
depot brigade, to which all the new
corners will be assigned, and escorted
to barracks. This additional 5000
men will go far to place the depot
brigade back where it was when
transfers to the division were asked
to fill up the ranks of the Seth. All OF
the 5000 men who will come here this
week are Wisconsin residents. To-
morrow's schedule shows that 2,71O
are due to arrive then. Five special
trains will carry the most of the men
here, although 40 will como on reg
ular trains. Saturday 5000 colored
men arrive from louisiana. All com
ing this week are whites. The period
for the movement ends Friday, so thai
there will be an average daily in
crease in the personnel of Camp Grant
Of about 1000 men.
