be laid what would happen If the citizens did not buy
home made goods rather than any civic obligation they
may be under to buy such goods This for the
that 1t is impossible to get people to DO what is right

people be prevented from doing what they shouldn't
do if they be sufficiently frightened into believing
they VIII suffer they fail to do what they ought to do

scribe the benefits to be derived from the patronage Of

money spent at home parks, better streets,
better schools better everything, locally. But though
such appeal ought to induce people to buy goods at home
